The Slumdog Millionaire girl Frieda Pinto seems to be on a roll. Other than being rumored to be the next Bond babe she is working on her forthcoming projects which include, Julian Schnabel's Miral, Woody Allen's You Will Meet A Tall Dark Stranger and Tarsem Singh's Dawn of War. But the 007 venture is still doubtful. Actress Freida Pinto has denied that she was approached by director Sam Mendes to play the lead in his next Bond movie opposite Daniel Craig. Freida's official spokesperson in a statement said, "It is of course very flattering to even be rumoured to be part of a Bond film but she has certainly not been approached for the role of the next Bond girl opposite Daniel Craig as yet."

Well even if Pinto was approached by the director, we doubt how much justice she would be able to o to that role. Given the track record of Bond and his leading ladies, Pinto would definitely fall short of that oomph. Once we think of Ursula Andress, Daniela Bianchi, Honor Blackman, Shirley Eaton, Diana Rigg, Lana Wood, Barbara Bach, Carey Lowell, Teri Hatcher, Halle Berry, Eva Green and Olga Kurylenko, is needs no saying that Pinto has to work really hard to match up to their level.

Of course Bond is a man of taste and his taste in women is par excelence. So Frieda, buck up girl... there is a lot you need to do if you want the rumors to become true.
