The 26-year-old met Patel on the sets of the Oscar winning movie and says that though their work schedules keep them apart for months they don`t really mind it, reported Contactmusic.
“We`ve arrived at a situation where understanding is primary. Now we don`t need to Skype all the time, we don`t need to talk every day over the phone. It`s just understanding that OK, he`s doing a film right now, so today is gonna be a busy day for him, he`ll call me up tomorrow,” said Pinto.
The actress who studied English literature at university in Mumbai, admits she never felt `satisfied` by academic studies and though she has accomplished a lot, she feels she and her sister are the `least educated`.
“I actually didn`t mind school, and I enjoyed university and college. But while that was happening I still knew that this was not satisfying enough. So among my friends` circle, I`m the least educated!,” Pinto said.
