BENGALURU: Sizzling hot actress Nargis Fakhri is reportedly dating Slumdog Millionaire fame Dev Patel whose live-in relationship with co-star Freida Pinto ended unceremoniously last year.
The Indian origin British actor was reported by media to have gone out with Fakhri for dinner in a pizzeria, in Mumbai. Fakhri, a Bollywood diva who made her debut in the movie “Rockstar” responded to the media report tweeting: “As per media, apparently a dinner crowd of 8 at a pizza place is the same as a “quiet dinner at a plush sobo hotel”.

In addition to her ‘mischievous’ post, Fakhri also uploaded a picture of a group of people which includes Patel and her having dinner at a south Mumbai restaurant. This was followed by a cropped image of them both, creating an impression that they are romantically engaged.
Fakhri started her career as a model in the US. She appeared on America’s Next Top Model before she made her acting debut in Bollywood film Rockstar. She gained further success in Bollywood through her roles in Madras Cafe and Main Tera Hero.
Meanwhile, Patel keeps on visiting India for shooting as he rose to stardom with the success of Slumdog Millionaire. Till recently, the actor was shooting in India for The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, a sequel of The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel released in 2011.
All actors dream of an industry free from gossips and rumours but, unfortunately, it looks like such a day is far away from coming true.
