Fans of Slumdog Millionaire will be devastated to hear that its stars Dev Patel and Freida Pinto have split up.

The couple met on the set of the Oscar-winning film in 2008 and have been together since. However it seems things have gone downhill in recent months with a source telling Us Weekly that "they have been done for a while."

The couple both rose to international fame after the release of Slumdog Millionaire and have starred in a number of high profile projects since, including Immortals for Freida and The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel for Dev.

Rumours of a split were sparked when Freida celebrated her 30th birthday in L.A. in October, with Dev nowhere to be seen.

"Freida is single and happy," said another insider. "Friends are setting her up."

We wonder how Dev is dealing with it all – even before the couple started dating he said in an interview that they were "soulmates," adding, "We're both in this surreal situation. She is very beautiful."

With this sad news, it's definitely time for a look back at the dance that started it all – who can forget Jai Ho?!
