'Slumdog' was my first movie, and I had never been to India before - I was just a teenager in the U.K. with my headphones and my Nike shoes. What did I know about growing up in a slum?

The dark side is when you are with family and friends, and you have paparazzi screaming at you - that's been hard to deal with.

Television moves fast, and you don't have the indulgences you have when you're shooting movies of so many takes because there are tight deadlines.

Training in taekwondo for eight years and then being able to do it in a film was pretty amazing.

I have a Blackberry which I use, but I am one of those people who can only type on it with one hand.

I don't have a Facebook or Twitter account.

Yeah, my family is of Indian heritage.
