Freida Pinto and Sonam Kapoor

Freida Pinto rose to international fame with her 15-minute role in Oscar winning film Slumdog Millionaire. Post the film, Freida won lots of modeling assignments and the latest for a huge cosmetic brand. Bollywood actress Sonam Kapoor is also endorsing the brand, but her campaign is limited to the local market. However, Freida is the face of the brand for overseas market.

Those who have seen the commercial of Freida say that she looks stunning in it. Some of them are Bollywood filmmakers, who, after watching the ad, sent request to her business agents asking if she would be interested in doing Bollywood films. But bad luck for Bollywood, who lost her to Hollywood, her diary is filled with so many Hollywood projects and film festivals. Therefore, it’s hard for the actress to say yes to Mumbai.

Dev's mom spills beans: Freida & Dev are dating

Freida Pinto and Rohan Engagement Ceremony

Freida Pinto and Rohan Engagement Ceremony

Do you have any proof of my engagement?" Freida Pinto had asked the international media, eager to cut any ties that might hamper her rise as a “world-renowned actress”.

Well, here are photographs — sent by a friend who calls himself ‘Deep Throat’ (as in Watergate) — that Rohan Antao was not just a figment of the media’s imagination. Freida, an overnight red-carpet darling, reportedly told a friend that she had “an incredible opportunity”, but would not be able to make the most of it if she was “tied down”.

Freida dumps boyfriend, calls off engagement

Freida Pinto, who shot to fame with the success of her film "Slumdog Millionaire", has dumped her boyfriend of four years.

According to reports 24-year-old Rohan is upset and is convinced she will come back. The two met at St. Xavier's University in Mumbai and soon came very close.

A friend said: "They were really into each other. Rohan would do anything for Freida. They were best pals as well as lovers. While together he helped her develop her website, did publicity and marketing for her and even fixed her dresses before the fashion shoots."

"Freida called off the engagement after the film took off. She could never have imagined how rapidly her career would grow and it's all been overwhelming.

Since the release of the film, she's hardly been in Mumbai and even when she is, she's too busy working. Whether it's permanent or temporary she's not sure, but for now they are not together. But Rohan took it very badly.

He is cut up about it now and hoping they will get back together. He has still not changed his relationship status on Facebook - it still says he is engaged. But no one else believes she will come back now. She is off pursuing her dreams."

There are rumours that the 24-year-old Pinto and her 18-year-old co-star Dev Patel are more than friends. Patel had earlier said: "She is very beautiful. Absolutely gorgeous. Everyone's agreed on that. But there's no romance, no."

Freida-Rohan's Secret Wedding Revealed

Freida Pinto and Rohan Antao had a secret wedding in Goa in December 2007; she dumped him after the success of her debut film, Slumdog Millionaire

The controversies that Freida Pinto is embroiled in are directly proportionate to the adulation that she is enjoying post Slumdog Millionaire. After several rumours of her promptly calling off her engagement and dumping fiancé Rohan Antao after she shot to fame, there is a new secret that we recently heard about Freida.

According to a source, Freida and Rohan had a secret wedding in Goa in December 2007. In fact, Freida got her wedding gown made from a designer in Lokhandwala after clearly telling the designer that it was for her wedding.

A close friend of Freida and Rohan said, “Rohan and Freida were extremely close and have several common friends. Both are 24 years old and were deeply in love with each other.

They had decided that they would get married in Goa, which is Rohan's hometown. They had booked a hotel for the wedding. Freida had given the designer just five days to make her gown as the wedding had to take place in late December 2007. Once the gown was almost ready, Freida also had a dress trial to which Rohan had accompanied her.”

Freida had told her close friends that she would be having a secret wedding as she didn't want too many people to know about it.

“Rohan and Freida had decided to keep their marriage a secret till they felt ready to talk about it openly. Even though she has dumped her husband Rohan now, he is not the kind who will go out and speak against her. In fact, they were together even when she completed shooting for Slumdog Millionaire. But once the film started making waves internationally, she decided to dump Rohan,” added the source.

So are they officially divorced now? The friend said, “Nothing is clear as yet. Rohan is still in shock at being dumped. He changed his status in the networking site Facebook from 'committed' to 'single' earlier this month. In fact, Freida was unhappy when Rohan had earlier written 'engaged' in his relationship status on the site.” Despite sending repeated text messages to Freida, she remained unavailable for comment.
