Following a romantic dinner in a New York restaurant, the stars left for their hotel but when the pair spotted the photographers, Dev Patel made a comic run away.

Seeing the funny side of it, Dev began laughing while making his rush and Freida, 25, also appeared to be amused as they out-foxed the snappers and giggled away. Rumours surfaced in February as "Slumdog..." mania swept the globe that Freida 25, and Dev, 19, were more than just friends.

Their cover was blown, however, by co-star Anil Kapoor who revealed: "When I meet them, I feel there is something happening," before adding that the couple shared "a magical chemistry". Recently Dev was in Philadelphia filming for "The Last Airbender" while Freida is been chased by casting agencies for modelling and film work.

He is also rumoured to have been lined up to play a lead role in a Hindi remake of south Indian hit "Nadodigal".
