British filmmaker Danny Boyle says he was surprised to learn his "Slumdog Millionaire" stars Dev Patel and Freida Pinto are dating because he didn`t notice any sparks between the pair on the movie set.
The two actors met while filming the Oscar-winning picture, but spent months denying rumours of a real-life romance before finally going public with their relationship this summer.
Boyle, who spent months directing the pair, admits he had no idea they would get together, reports.
"I was a bit surprised at first, but then those things tend to pass me by… I`m delighted for them, they seem to be real soulmates and I`m sure more than that. I`m very happy for them – it seems lovely," he said.
