Freida Pinto is once again in limelight for her sassy photo shoot for the August 2011 issue of Interview magazine. 26-year-old Indian actress Freida Pinto who rose to fame with movie Slumdog Millionaire, is flaunting sexy looks in the photoshoot. On cover page, Freida looks nearly unrecognizable with her hand on face.

Photographed by Mert & Marcus and styled by Karl Templer for Interview magazine’s latest issue, Freida oozes sexiness in dresses from Stella McCartney, Versace, Christopher Kane and other designer brands.

Check out excerpts from Freida Pinto’s Interview:

On having to audition a lot before Slumdog: “Yes, I did. And I was rejected at almost every one of them. [laughs] One person said, ‘She doesn’t look too Indian.’”

On bond with Dev Patel: “I don’t think anybody—not even family or friends—can understand what the two of us have been through. As beautiful as it is, there are parts of it that just become a bit tiring to deal with. The paparazzi, for example, and not having privacy. He made a statement unknowingly once and he said, “Oh, she is like my soul mate,” and we were not dating or anything back then, and it became this big hoopla. Like, “Oh my god! How could he have said that? What does that mean?” But I guess he was right in a way; we are soul mates.”

On calling it Bombay and not Mumbai like everybody else: “God, I get that all the time. I’m just so used to calling it Bombay. I know everything has changed. It’s India’s way of trying to brush off colonialism and make it what it originally was, but unfortunately for me I called it Bombay for 16 years, and I think that’s a long time in a 26-year-old’s life to automatically start calling it Mumbai. It’s very confusing for a lot of people. My agent thought Bombay and Mumbai were two different places. And I was like, “No, it’s the same thing.”"
