Slumdog's Dev and Freida

Slumdog's Dev and Freida

Freida Pinto and Dev Patel have reportedly been 'dating' as part of a publicity stunt.

The stars of Slumdog Millionaire have been unusually quiet about their relationship, despite rumours circulating that they were linked romantically.

Reports have suggested that up until the film was nominated for so many awards, nothing was heard about Freida and Dev's relationship and then Anil Kapoor ignited the fire by saying that they must be dating.

The media then married her off to Rohan Antao, with Rohan then coming out of the woodwork to say Freida had dumped him for Dev. Throughout all this, it's been reported that both Freida and Dev remained silent.

Miraculously though, the day after Slumdog walked away with 8 Oscars both parties came out to clear the air and deny any involvement.

Freida apparently called 18-year-old Dev 'a little boy' and denied dating him, while Dev said news of their affair was just rumours.

So was it all a publicity stunt, or are they just trying to keep their romance out of the public eye?
