Freida Pinto is one girl who is surely riding high with success of Slumdog Millionaire at the Oscars. The girl is on every hollywood director’s wish-list.
Sources suggest Freida Pinto has signed on writer-director Julian Schnabel’s (of Oscar-nominated French film, The Diving Bell and the Butterfly fame) new film, Miral.
Freida arrived in Israel last week for the film’s shoot.
According to The Jerusalem Post, the actress arrived a month early to prepare for her role in Miral, a joint French-Israeli production.
Set in Jerusalem, the movie is about Hind Husseini’s effort to set up an orphanage in the city following the creation of the state in 1948. The shoot will begin in April and will be released next year.
