Dev: They’re doing Slumthing right

DEV PATEL applauded British film bosses for becoming more inclusive with casting.

‘I think it is moving in the right direction,’ Dev, 26, said at the Baftas, where he won best supporting actor for Lion. ‘As you can see on this red carpet, there are so many diverse faces, which says it all.’

The Slumdog Millionaire star said Lion, about an adopted Indian boy, had ‘such a beautiful positive message of family and unity and love, it makes me proud’.
