Freida, Unplugged

A new interview, by IBNLive.in.com, has Freida talking about all the stuff we’ve been wondering about for the last couple of weeks. It’s a very interesting read, so I recommend all of you to head over to the press archive right away to check it out! Enjoy some tidbits from the interview below.

Rohit Khilnani: How was life before Slumdog? What was Freida Pinto up to?
Freida Pinto: Before I auditioned for Slumdog I was hosting a travel show. I traveled all over South East Asia and I thoroughly enjoyed it. That was another experience that really made me grow. I had to take charge and go out there and in fact do exactly what you are doing. So I don’t regret anything. The struggle has made me understand all this a lot more and made success even sweeter.

Rohit Khilnani: How did the Woody Allen film happen?
Freida Pinto: I auditioned for the film, somewhere around the month of February. My agent said that this is a Woody Allen project, why don’t you go and read for it. I did, and I got it.

Rohit Khilnani: So is it true that you are the next Bond film?
Freida Pinto: Should I continue the rumour? But yeah it is very flattering that, people think Freida Pinto is the next Bond girl, which is obviously not true. I really don’t know what the source of all of this is and would really one day like to write a book on it.

Rohit Khilnani: Right, so you have any free time and what do you do? You read? You listen to music?
Freida Pinto: I have no free time. The little free time I have I keep it for my family. You know I have projects, I have movies coming etc and I may not have time for my family.
