Lion has reflected my potential: Dev Patel
He became a star with his debut film \'Slumdog Millionaire\' but British-Indian actor Dev Patel went through a period of struggle where he felt pigeon-holed as a performer until ‘Lion’ came his way. Directed by Garth Davis, the true-life inspired movie is tipped to get nominated at the Oscars this year.
He became a star with his debut film 'Slumdog Millionaire' but British-Indian actor Dev Patel went through a period of struggle where he felt pigeon-holed as a performer until ‘Lion’ came his way. Directed by Garth Davis, the true-life inspired movie is tipped to get nominated at the Oscars this year.
Patel says he knew he had a great role the moment he read the script and jumped at the chance to play Saroo Brierley. “The film has opened people to my potential. After ‘Slumdog Millionaire’, it was really hard for me to get quality work. You think it would be easy but it is actually quite a struggle.
I felt pigeon-holed. “But I kept working hard and have been patient for many years now. So, when a role like this came, I gave everything that I had to do justice to it. It feels really good when it is recognised,” Patel said.
