concentrate on her career, it has been revealed.window.google_render_ad();
According to friends, Pinto, 24, has told Mumbai PR agent Rohan Antao that she could not be with him and be a world-renowned actress at the same time.
Pinto did not want to get caught up in routine life just when her career was taking off. So, she decided to call off the engagement, a pal said.
During her meteoric rise to stardom, Pinto had kept Antao a secret from the media.
Pals say Antao is 'devastated' at losing the girl he thought he was marrying. "It's been a terrible time for him. One minute they were getting married, the next it was all over," News of the World quoted a close friend as saying.
The couple met at St Xavier's College, Mumbai, where Pinto read English and Antao, chemistry.
Antao then became boss of a small PR firm. Last year he popped the question while the actress was filming the Oscar-nominated movie.
Pinto had posted photographs of her engagement party on her Facebook web page, but the photos have now been taken down.
For the last two months, Pinto has been promoting British director Danny Boyle's flick around the UK and USA, putting a strain on her relationship.
"Freida realised she had been presented with an incredible opportunity but would not be able to make the most of it if she were tied down. She knew she had to put acting first from now on," the pal said.
"She and Rohan talked on the phone about finding a way to make it work, but her circumstances had changed so much they knew it wasn't to be," the pal said.
