  • That fake purse Freida is going to marry this newborn soon...

  • He's too cute and so down to earth!! He seems so nervous, too cute! I like him way better than Frieda!

  • Letterman is mad the audience not laughing at his one liners and pauses while the kid is narrating some nice stories. Then he gets douchy with the 'abject' tone.

  • dev patel is just adorable! I wish I could marry him he's just beautiful.

  • @vilad07 WTF is ur problem and for ur info I am Hindu i now the difference I was born in America I can't speak Hindi very well I'm not trying been rude it was supposed to be a joke I don't care if u can speak Hindi or not I DONT GIVE A FUCK

  • Dev Patel is so handsome...

    

  • mr brownstone... haha so rude

  • David Letterman should do some research on other cultures before asking people from various background on his shows because he clearly doesn't understands others perspective and is too busy thinking up some stupid jokes (for the moment) to crack up.

  • being a hindu an cant speak gud hindi shame shame but he is hot

  • @snddevini what has hindu to do with hindi? hinduism is a religion while hindi is a language,all hindus don't speak or know hindi for your just information...

  • Skins is amazing!

  • I LOVE SKINS!

  • he can do better than her!! aghh

  • Letterman is a sucky host,so boring and old seems like he would drop dead any second now.He made this whole interview sucky.

  • 0:57 lol

  • Racist? He's suppose to be comedic on his show you sensitive assholes.

  • david a bitter old man

  • Hey girl! Long time no see!

  • lettermans annoying

  • venessa, do you work at cs rich

  • @eba1001 cs rich?

  • are you the venessa that works with at the comfort suites

  • @eba1001 OH YEAH!!! HEY

  • omg, r u 4 real.

  • @eba1001 wow this is random, it's random i even got to this page...ah the randomness of it all!

  • I'm going to be immature and say that David Letterman is old and American and probably has never seen an Indian with a British accent so he doesn't know how to react.

  • Lettermen is a bloody racist.

  • So Dev was with Freida way back.

  • Why is Dave so mean? He said that a slumdog could never win who wants to be a millionare like there retarded or something.

  • no he's jsut being realistic..ppl from the slums dont have global exposure nor much exposure to the media..hecne since the show does cater to those requirements as we;ve seen for such shows..the winners are generally well educated..hence he came up with that idea.

  • @666enator yaa we knw how well educated u guys are....no wonder u need ppl from "slums" to come and work on top positions like doctors ans engineers...shows how many so called "well educated" ppl are there...

  • @richashetty86 what in gods name are you talking about??

    we dont need people from the slums to be doctors are engineers..theyre a rarity..being an engineer in india is not hard at all..its one of the easiest courses available..but being good at it is what matters..were a nation of 1 billion plus..most of our exports are from the middle class region..dont talk as if you know what the situation is..theres a supervast majority in every job where the middle class is usually the top brass..

  • @richashetty86 are you implying that it's a bad thing that lots of under-priviledged people are smarter than most of the better-off people in the world? YOU should get an education ...

    and yeah, the middle class are totally the majority in the educated part of India.

  • @richashetty86 its surprising to see how indians from slums can surpass your very high class people..

  • He is so sexy...

  • @LeeAnne1990

    nononono: She!!

  • i saw the film!!!!!!!!!!!! pretty good!!!

  • David Letterman always turns racist.

    Sorry but his one-liners comments abt mixed people aren't good I must agree.

  • i totally agree, he should be in some nursing home now., too old for all this.

  • @grewaljassu

    so true

  • Freida is just sooo hotttt!!

  • I absolutely love this kid. I hope fame does not change his soul. He's just adorable :)

  • he is indian born in britian so more brit lol

  • dev patel is sooo hot!

  • INDIANS ROCK!!!!

  • lol

  • i love dev and frieda...indians rock out

  • Don't forget vote right now on MTV for Dev, Frieda, and the other nominations Slumdog is up for the MTV MOVIE AWARDS!

  • her name is freida...

  • OMG.. im 18 tooooooo

    ..

    god he's cuuuuuuute ..

  • he just turned 19 recently, actually.

  • He's a cute boy.

  • Slumdog is an excellent film, really genius. I love it. And love Dev Patel, he's ace. Its annoying how little Letterman knows about the film and about Dev, on chat shows in the UK (e.g. Jonathon Ross) and on other shows in the US (e.g. Ellen), the interviewer finds out stuff about the star before the interview, Letterman makes himself loos stupid and then makes Dev look stupid by knowing nothing about the film and about Skins, which is a big shw among teens in UK. Its really annoying.

  • Skins? I dont think anybody really knew bout that show until Dev mentioned it in all his interviews. UK shows r really not well known worldwide.

  • well besides what all of you guys think of the host...does anyone know how i can meet DEV!!! hes so damn sexy! lol jk...and his fucking accent makes him hotter!!!!!!!!!!!

  • this movie made me cry. especially latika standing in the rain..i want to watch it again

  • Dev Patel is like... crazy

    love both :)

  • omg del is sooo nice,he seems so polite.... i lov that about men!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • WTF. How is he being Racist. He didnt say anything here. Is there something on another episode he said?

  • Respect your elders. letterman's no racist. He took on McCain with gentle humour. It was more than most reporters did. Racist? How do you get that? I love dev Patel. I don't see anything racist in this interview. He's a bit paternal,but then,he's old,and Dev is young. He doesn't interrupt him much. He lets him have most of the funny lines. That's a host.If the guest is good,get out of the way.

  • shes really, really beautiful!!! and smart too, you don't see that very often. Love the movie soooo much (L)

  • he is really skinny, but dude...if he was like MUSCULAR and he had like a six pack HE WOULD BE SOOO FUCKING HOT!!! he needs to work out!

  • david letterman is a racist old fuck!

  • yeah i agree i dont like him did you saw the episode with ashwariah ray.

  • David Letterman can suck Leno's balls. Learn to be a fucking HOST.

  • why are american talk show hosts so fucking useless? please...somebody tell me.

  • another reason dave always be the second talk show host in the states

  • Letterman you are such a dick, such an asshole.

  • ahhahaaha the *humping your leg* thing

  • What was that? An awful interview! Talk about being downright rude... he hardly seemed to pay attention to what Dev was saying and his comments were just absolutely ignorant!

  • DEVVV!! :)

  • Not one of Dave's finest moments. He didn't seem all that interested and was a little rude at some points. Thankfully, Dev Patel is a real charmer and one cool customer. Didn't affect him at all. He's going to be a big star one day.

    Oh and Freida did look gorgeous. Guess she was lending some "support" to Dev since she was clearly not going to be interviewed.

  • hey ZooniQadri06, just saw this and then read your comment. you couldn't have been more astute. what do you think Dave's mood was all about? nice comment on what you said about Dev Patel too...just curious...are you an actor?

  • No, I'm not an actor at all. Stuck in academia unfortunatley, lol! I think Dave Letterman didn't want to be 'bothered' by such a small star, at the time this was taped SDM wasn't as huge a movie as it's turned out to be. I'll bet if Dev goes back now, it'll be a different story altogether. It was uncomfortable watching Letterman being so careless about his comments but like I said, Dev handled it like a pro.

  • thanks, got your reply.  interesting moment, first time i saw dave like this...although i'm sure you saw him antagonize joaquin phoenix recently...but joaquin was being pretty strange to begin with...

  • I don't like his use of the word abject or that he said that it can 'NEVER' happen in the 'real' world. fuck u on both accounts dave. i don't remember ANYTHING 'abject' about their situation and i don't remember dave lettermen as being a guru of what's possible and what's not. yeah dev remained polite and unaffected.

  • i think you are taking it out of context

  • um, your comment means nothing unless u explain. i can just as easily say I disagree with your thinking.

  • where r u from ??? i m from london, born n bread.. huh.. enough u r from london ..no need to add born n bread...

  • Letterman!!!! Watch your words... or u will be in trouble.

  • there are so many inside jokes when this bastard letterman talks..... like in the end he says "what a way to begin a career, 'slumdog millionaire' ladies and gentleman!"

  • Even though I don't like Aishwarya Rai, even I was vouching for her when she was interviewed by Letterman. Is he rude to all the Indians who are guests on the show or is it just a coincidence?

  • ? are you sure..........

  • sure of what?........

  • Why is letterman such an ass?! geez asshole!

  • India Rox.....As U Can C

  • Yay India!!!!

  • dave is creepy

  • dream on man... hahaha... shes in love with the boy of the film.... dev patel!! losed!!

  • i want to marry Freida Pinto!

  • lol. racist arent we?

  • My jaw dropped at the brief shot of Freida.

  • Dev is so real!! he is hilarious

  • Dave is a douche here.

  • that's racist.

  • Comment removed

  • its amazing,

    this kid, Dev Patel, has had NO FORMAL ACTING LESSONS...

    and yet, he's the lead character in a film that just won 8 oscars...incredible!

    props to you, Dev Patel

  • Dev has been acting in th UK prior to Slumdog - most notably in the British TV series "Skins" with Nicholas Hoult from "About a Boy" (with Hugh Grant). Boyle's daughter recommended him when he was looking for a Jamal and the rest is history.

  • thanks for that einstein!

    i knew that already...since i watched the first two series of skins!!!! duh!!!

    and he didn't have any professional training in ACTING before or during skins...all he had done was GCSE Drama (compulsory secondary education)

    unlike most other aspiring young aspiring actors...who at least go to THEATRE school or have private ACTING lessons

    the boy truly is a genius!

  • And apparently Freida Pinto didn't act at all before this movie. But I think Freida's role was more about looking beautiful and vulnerable than actually acting

  • dev patel is a kid now. he just 18. but freida pinto is 24. oh my god i love too much this girl.

  • Dev Patel IS THE FUTURE...

    not Freida, shes a scumbag billionaire

  • Yes Dev Patel was the true star of the film and will probably be more relevant in the future, but why do you seem to hate Freida? She might be a huge star too.

  • Dave is cool. His sense of humor is just different from a normal comedian. Some people just don't get his type of humor. Many does. That's why he's been doing this show for over 20 years.

  • And the days go around.

    Have u seen Dev Patel yesterday on the Kodak Stage ??

    And this Letterman keeps laughing at himself, his guests and audience with stupid jokes.

  • you must enter a comment....i just did, idiot, a few words less than the 500...so why doesnt the comment feature work.

    people need to know that letterman earns about one thousand times more than he deserves to earn...he is so stuck on himself that he makes his guests wonder why he is so pompous.

  • letterman is always rude when he sits opposite someone very at ease. dev will not let letterman get the best of him.

    letterman always laughs at his own comments first of all and sometimes the audience sees through his thin attempts at humor....he is not worth a hundredth of what they pay him.

    it makes me want to wish that the indian kids do so well that they can say they are too busy the next time DL invites them on...he needs to do his homework.

  • Comment removed

  • Don't u think tha was abit offensive towards Pinto. They never even called her out. What was the point of being there.

  • Comment removed

  • there's something really hot about Dev Patel

    I love how cool and relaxed he is, but still is mature and smart too

  • dev u rock !!

    letterman u SUCK !!!

  • Letterman doesn't come close to John Ross, american humour is awful.

  • Johnathan Ross is a lecherous twat

  • Yes because David Letterman represents American humor as a whole...He's not even the best late night talk show host(by a long shot).

  • Amitaabh vs. Regis lol! Letterman is a moron and Dev is agreeing with him!

  • i used to watch skins, it was sad when chris died. Dev patels character was funniest.

  • Why's Letterman so fukin rude?

  • true..

  • Freida Pinto is SO gorgeous! Why didn't they interview her too?!!? Dev Patel was a nervous wreck.

  • what are u talking about??

    Dev wasnt nervous at all..he seemed to be enjoying himself alot

    Dave Letterman was just an idiot - his questions were crap and he clearly didn't do any research on Dev (he didnt know what Skins was)

    Usually Letterman is good, and i have total respect for him...but this was a poor interview on his part (not Dev's)

  • Comment removed

  • I agree Letterman didn't seem interested in the film or Dev. But Dev I think seems quite shaky which is why I thought he seemed nervous. Either that or hes a bit too excited to be seeing Letterman.

  • nerves! I doubt he was used to talk shows yet at this point.

  • is dev patel an english hindu?? he says tat he is being 2 bombay 4 the first time....

  • he is born and braught up in london....

    but his parents are from india...

    he had been to india 10 yrs ago for a family function..

    and now for the movie for 4 months...

    (as per an interview )

  • Amitabh Bachan and Regis!!!!!!!!I mean the fan following of bachan in his hay days was like 10 times more than the likes of Tom Cruise and all the top line hollywood actors.I think Dev should have empphasised the popularity and greatness of Amitabh keeping in mind the inherent ego problems that people like letterman have.

  • why didn't they bring frida out??

    whats the point of even having her there if they're not going to interview her??

  • They would've interview both of them. Like, I understand he's the lead actor of that movie but, c'mon, look at her! Way too smokin', even Megan Fox would envy.

  • why didn't frieda come out! She was looking good in that dress!!!

  • 93Hondax2: yeah... he would be great playing Benjamin...

  • dev patel is the man

  • apparently the jackass doesn't know a good film when he sees one and tries to make a mockery outta it. Hes such a dick

  • lol an english accaaannnttt!

  • ROFLMAO so funny

  • Damn Freida Pinto is sooooooooo HOT!!!!!!

  • Why you getting so pissed? Everyone has their own opinion about Letterman, and I say he is a DOUCHE, he's not even 1% into this movie or its story, I feel like he's bringing it and Dev down every chance he gets. Calm the fuck down.

  • Letterman is a douche

  • Comment removed

  • he did great and im sure hes better than you

  • probably not. but then again lots of people are good as him...with no real experience

  • Yeah but try to remember- would you take a role of a character being naked in the entire series? Even at the age of 16?!!! Teen characters in the U.S. did that part at the legal age of 18. So that takes balls of steel to try that role, even if you have family that sees your movie. Ouch.

  • hes an obvious racist. you should c his interviews with other people

  • i noticed that too. lettermen didn't seem too enthusiastic about the movie lol

  • where is Freida?

  • she's around 6:30

  • amitabh is known everywhere like Tide with bleach .come on you know how i meant it ..............................­.....watch slum dog millionaire! 10/10

  • AMitabh is known in the euro world .the muslim world.and hindu world,he is up there with micheal jackson,every one knows who they are

  • Amitabh should never be compared to Michael Jackson. The man is famous, not notorious like a damn pedophile.

    Bachchan is simply one of the biggest stars in the world. Period.

  • yea he is a joke, and bollywood blows, a disgrace to the country. But i've seen some of bacchan's older movies (MUCH better than the ones nowadays where he tries to be overly cool and westernized), and i understand why hes revered. those older movies were leagues better than the movies back then. (they all still for the most part sucked)

    his son is a joke too

  • thumbs up for u good sir

  • thriller is STILL one of the best-selling albums to this day. before he became famous for diddly kids, jackson was one of the biggest stars in the world

  • we weren't talkin bout michael jackson

  • Letterman's never seen Skins, evidently. Neither have I. Dev makes it sound like a silly show, and Letterman is just joking around about it - that's all. I seem to be spending a fair amount of time defending Letterman for his interviews with actors who are Indian or of Indian descent. Maybe his humor just doesn't translate well to non-Americans.

  • Comparing Regis and Amitabh makes no sense. Big B is much bigger.

  • i dont really like David Letterman. The shows not about the guests, its about him.

  • so true
