Sparkling Frieda Pinto attends Trishna premier
The glamorous Indian actress sparkled in a black Ralph Lauren trouser suit as she walked the red carpet in London’s Leicester Square. Arriving fashionably late there were huge sighs of relief amongst the PR when she finally arrived. Freida stayed to watch the film and attended press interviews.
Set in present day India, Trishna, Freida Pinto is the daughter of an auto rickshaw driver. She meets Jay (Riz Ahmed), the son of a wealthy property developer, who has come to work for his father in a beautiful heritage hotel n Rajasthan. When Trishna’s own father has an accident and is unable to work, Jay offers her a job in the hotel so she can support her family. The two fall in love.
Trishna whose rural upbringing n Rajasthan finds life tough going in modern Mumbai, trying hard to blend in with Jay’s profiled friends who etch out their living in the film and entertainment industry, Trishna finds life increasingly challenging with unpredictable consequences.
The film is an intriguing insight into modern India which is likely to challenge your preconceptions. Trishna is a bitter sweet fable which is beautifully filmed amongst some stunning locations.
The Cast who attended this screening included: Freida Pinto, Riz Ahmed, Roshan Seth Director / Screenplay: Michael Winterbottom. Production details: UK 2011, 117min
