Pinto grew up in a middle class family in Malad, Mumbai, along with her sister, where she attended the Carmel of St. Joseph School. She later enrolled in St. Xavier’s College in Mumbai, majoring in English literature.

Upon graduating in 2005, she pursued both modeling and acting careers. She spent over two years working for Elite Model Management India, appearing in a number of television and print ads, such as for Wrigley’s Chewing Gum, Vodafone India, eBay and Visa. In the meantime, she began auditioning for television and films, being hired to host the travel show “Full Circle” in 2006-2007. Hwr net worth was well established.

In 2007 Pinto and several other models from her agency got an opportunity to audition for the leading role of Latika in the 2008 British drama “Slumdog Millionaire”. The film became a massive box office success, grossing over $377.9 million worldwide and winning a number of awards, and Pinto’s performance as Latika earned her the Breakthrough Performance Award and the Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture. It also enabled her to achieve needed recognition in the acting world, and a significant rise in her net worth.

After her work on “Slumdog Millionaire”, Pinto went on to take an acting course at the Barry John Acting Studio in Mumbai. In 2010 she got a smaller part in Woody Allen’s comedy-drama “You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger”, and then the starring title role in Julian Schnabel’s biographical political film “Miral”. The year 2011 was very productive for Pinto; she was cast in the role of primatologist Caroline Aranha in the science fiction film “Rise of the Planet of the Apes”, a great box-office success, grossing $481.8 million worldwide, more that any other project Pinto has appeared in. She then played the title role as a teenage Rajasthani peasant in the drama film “Trishna”, and her other roles of the year include playing Princess Lailah in the historical war film “Day of the Falcon”, and oracle priestess Phaedra in the fantasy/action film “Immortals”, the latter film grossing over $226.9 million worldwide. Although Pinto’s performances in all of these projects gained mixed reviews, her popularity significantly rose, considerably improving her wealth.

In 2013 the actress appeared in the popular music video for Bruno Mars’ single “Gorilla”, which brought a lot of negative criticism from Indian media. The following year she played the drug addict Elaheh in the biographical drama “Desert Dancer”. Pinto’s most recent film appearance was in the 2015 experimental drama “Knight of Cups”, and the action film “Blunt Force Trauma”. She is currently filming the live-action adventure fantasy film “Jungle Book”, which is set to be released in 2018. Her net worth should continue to rise.

Pinto has frequently been featured in various magazines lists, such as “World’s Most Beautiful People”, “World’s Best Dressed Women” and “Most Beautiful at Every Age” by People magazine, “Top Ten Most Stylish Women” by Vogue and “Top 99 Most Desirable Women” poll by AskMen.

Speaking about her private life, Pinto hasn’t married; sources believe she is single at present.
The actress is a devoted philanthropist, involved in various humanitarian causes. She has supported charities focused on enhancing the status of women and underprivileged children, such as the Agassi Foundation, as well as Plan International’s “Because I am a Girl” and Gucci’s “Chime for Change” campaigns.

#Quote
1I call upon women to raise each other up, to make each other's welfare a priority and to never shame a woman for the choices she makes
2[on preparing to play a primatologist in Rise of the Planet of the Apes (2011)] Like most people, I only knew what I'd been taught in school about chimps, and that's not enough. So I watched a ton of videos about Jane Goodall, who I'd love to meet. All her research was fascinating and so useful, especially in how she studied human behavior in comparison to chimp behavior.
3I'm just so used to calling it Bombay. I know everything has changed. It's India's way of trying to brush off colonialism and make it what it originally was, but unfortunately for me I called it Bombay for 16 years, and I think that's a long time in a 26-year-old's life to automatically start calling it Mumbai. It's very confusing for a lot of people. My agent thought Bombay and Mumbai were two different places. And I was like, "No, it's the same thing."
4This industry is for fighters and those who do not give up! It is very important to believe in yourself. Even when a hundred people rejected me, I did not lose hope and, finally, one of the biggest directors of all times [Danny Boyle] believed in me! Also working in this film [Slumdog Millionaire (2008)] has taught me a lot, not just in terms of acting but also about myself, which is an integral part of being a good actor!
