Dev Patel Girlfriend, Shirtless and Net Worth

British actor Dev Patel is known for his role as Jamal Malik in the Oscar-winning movie Slumdog Millionaire. He is also popular for his role in the hit British television series Skins. He has a net worth of an estimated $3 million dollars. 

The British actor started his career with the television series Skins. He played the role of a British Pakistani Muslim teenager which was partly based on Patel’s personality.

He played the role of Anwar Kharral for two seasons. He appeared in other TV shows including Mister Eleven and The Newsroom. He guest appeared in the former, and he was a main cast in the latter one. 

Talking about his filmography, he debuted with Slumdog Millionaire. Slumdog Millionaire won Patel many awards and accolades.

He received some awards including Chicago Film Association Award, two Black Reel Awards, National Board of Review Awards, for best actor, among others.

Further he won many nominations for the same role. After two years of Slumdog, Patel appeared in the movie The Last Airbender, but this was a major flop.

He then played The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel where he again collected good reviews and few nominations. He has not been into many movies since then though few movies he has signed for is under production.

In an interview, he told that he would be working on more movies that would appeal more to the energetic young audiences. We will soon get to see his movies, hopefully. 

Moving on to his personal life, Dev was born 23 April 1990 in Harrow, London, UK. Although he was born and raised in London, his parents are Indians; he was brought up in Hindu faith.

His mother works as a care giver, and father is an IT consultant. 

Dev was in acting and plays from a very young age. His first acting role was in his school’s play titled Twelfth Night as Sir Andrew Aguecheek. He won best performance award for this role.

He then continued playing dramas and plays. He attended Whitmore High School where he got an A* in GSCE Drama. He played the role of Anwar Kharral in Skins while he was studying in Whitmore. 

Patel was very active physically. So he attended the Rayners Academy of Taekwondo in 2000. He has gained a Dan black belt in Taekwondo.

Patel stands six feet two inch tall. His height and weight don't seem to match as he was a very small and thin body. His shirtless look on Skins, further, is evident that he is very thin.

His gay – ish charm makes him look like a genuine Indian but when he talks his British accent makes us forget about his ancestry. 

Frieda Pinto, the female actor from Slumdog Millionaire, is Dev’s girlfriend. The pair’s on-screen chemistry was much talked off-screen as well during the Slumdog’s success days.

They started dating since 2009 and still are maintaining their relationship. They were seen moving in together in 2011 in a $1.5 million rental home in Los Angeles.
