Freida Pinto Plays Mowgli’s Mother In ‘Jungle Book: Origins’

Actress Freida Pinto has recently revealed that she will be playing the role of Mowgli’s mother in ‘Jungle Book: Origins’. The actress made the revelation in an exclusive interview with etonline.com. “I play Mowgli's adoptive mother, so I'm very, very excited about it”, she said.

The action-adventure movie has been adapted from Rudyard Kipling’s novel ‘The Jungle Book’. “I read The Jungle Book and watched the TV series in India growing up, and for me, to finally be part of the film that reminds me so much of my childhood is just amazing”, said Freida. The Warner Brothers’ movie is slated to release on October 6, 2017.

“It's one of those films that I feel, no matter what age group you are, you're going to enjoy that film. And I feel like it's been a while since I've done something like that, because most of my films have not been good enough for children. A little too intense, so I'm very happy to finally be doing a film that can be [watched by kids]”, she added.
