Freida Pinto is the cover girl of the December issue of Harper's Bazaar. In the accompanying interview, the Slumdog Millionaire actress talks about her relationship with co-star Dev Patel.

She says, "That's going good. But it's very personal. It's for the two people and those involved in my life (like her parents and her three best girlfriends from her Mumbai days) to know. I've never denied it. "

And on the gossip mills that went into overdrive post her Slumdog success, on a rumoured break-up with a fiance, she says, "It was a shock, but you develop a thick skin and ignore things. The other day, Salman Khan said, 'Today's news is tomorrow's garbage!' "
