Freida Pinto - a perfectionist

The Slumdog Millionaire actress took two-week-long tuitions to learn Arabic language. It's heard that Freida's role requires her to speak Arabic in some parts of the movie, as she plays a woman who speaks English with Arabic accent.

When Freida heard about her character, she insisted Julian Schnabel, the Oscar-nominated director, to get a private tutor so that she can learn the language and perfect her dialogue delivery. The actress is now in Jerusalem, shooting for the movie.


Miral' is based on a book written by Rula Jebreal about the account of Hind Husseini's effort to establish an orphanage in Jerusalem after the 1948 partition of Palestine when Israel was re-created.

According to reports, the role of Freida in the movie is very challenging and the lady wanted to add perfection to her character and hence prepared herself prior to the shoot by learning Arabic.

Freida has also signed a plum project with Hollywood director Woody Allen where she will be seen next to the actors like Josh Brolin, Anthony Hopkins, Antonio Banderas, Naomi Watts, and Nicole Kidman.
