Frieda Pinto promises surprise for Indian audience in 'Mowgli'
What's the story
Andy Serkis promised his 'Mowgli' will be closest to Rudyard Kipling's 'The Jungle Book' and now actor Freida Pinto has revealed that Indian audience will be treated with a surprise once the film releases. The 33-year-old actor, who plays Messua in 'Mowgli', says the way Serkis has shot the film is phenomenal and Indian-origin actor Rohan Chand has done an excellent job as Mowgli.

"I've been waiting for 'Mowgli' to come out. It has been three years since we shot for it," Frieda said. "Everyone in the team, including Andy Serkis, are on top of their game. Specifically for Indian audience, there's a little surprise, which I don't want to ruin right now. Indian audience is going to love it," Freida said in an interview.

Frieda talks about her upcoming films on love and relationships
"My next two films are beautiful romantic stories. They're about love and certain hard decisions people have to take in relationships.
