Freida Pinto finds a mentor in Scarlett Johansson

London: Slumdog Millionaire actress Freida Pinto has found a new mentor in Hollywood star Scarlett Johansson, her co-star in Woody Allen's next film.

Johansson, star of Lost In Translation, has reportedly taken the 24-year-old actress from Mumbai under her wing.
Johansson, who has worked with Allen three times in her career, most recently in Vicky Cristina Barcelona, which won the Best Actress Oscar for Penelope Cruz, besides Scoop and Match Point, teamed up with Pinto at the Milan Fashion Week, the Daily Mail reported.
Pinto, who shot to international fame with her brief role as Latika in the multiple Oscar-winning film Slumdog Millionaire, posed for photographers in a glamorous cream dress at the show.
The actress and Johansson co-star in Allen's as-yet untitled project along with Josh Brolin, Naomi Watts, and Anthony Hopkins.
Pinto, who has appeared on the cover of the Indian editions of Vogue, Cosmopolitan, and Maxim, is being hailed as the next big thing by international fashion magazines.
