It's "Official"

The stars of Slumdog Millionaire are taking their romance off-screen!


Movie audiences across the world cheered for Dev Patel and Freida Pinto's onscreen love story in the Oscar-winning "Slumdog Millionaire," and now the pair are officially a couple in real life.

They have repeatedly denied that their film script romance carried over into their off-screen lives, but photos taken last week suggested otherwise.

And in the wake of those published photos that show the duo sharing a cuddly lunch in Israel, Patel's mother has confirmed that they are dating to Britain's Daily Mirror.

"Life can’t get any better for him. Freida is really beautiful and I am really happy for them," Patel's mother Anita told the British newspaper.

"Yes, we knew he was flying to Israel to see her," she said.

Pinto, 24, is on location in Israel for a film and the Mirror last week ran photos of the striking actress sharing an intimate lunch with Patel, 18, who flew especially to Jerusalem for the date.

Pinto is slated to appear in an upcoming Woody Allen film and there are rumors she has also been tapped to be a Bond Girl in an upcoming 007 film.
