Luck doesn’t always work: Freida Pinto

Freida was a model in India for two years before director Danny Boyle picked her to play the female lead in his movie “Slumdog Millionaire”.

She hasn’t looked back since then. India’s Hollywood export believes that the word “luck” is often misunderstood by people. “You just can’t have luck all your life. You can have that one moment when all your lines are aligned at the right time.

But after that, all you have is what you bring to the table – that’s your talent, your personality, your charisma, your commitment and dedication. That’s all you have and you have to keep working at it.

Luck is not going to be the playing factor about where you are going to be next,” the 28-year-old actress was reported saying. According to the dusky beauty, every professional step should be taken with a lot of care.
