Quiz: Only the true Dev Patel fans will ace this quiz

Dev Patel made his acting debut in the 2007 British comedy TV show, Skins, where he essayed the role of a teenager with a quirky sense of humour. He bagged his major breakthrough in Danny Boyle's Academy Award-winning sleeper hit Slumdog Millionaire (2008). His character in the film, Jamal Malik, a young man from Mumbai with modest means, earned him numerous accolades including the Critics' Choice Award for Best Young Actor, BAFTA Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role, Black Reel Award for Best Breakthrough Performance, among others. Patel has since starred in several acclaimed films such as The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel (2011), a road trip movie, The Road Within (2014), a film based on true events, Hotel Mumbai (2018), as well as an adaptation of a story loosely based on the life of Charles Dickens, The Personal History of David Copperfield (2019).

The Oscar-nominated star continues to slip into a diverse range of roles and his latest movie, The Green Knight, which released in theatres in the United States, has received positive reviews and Patel’s compelling turn in the film has been lauded by critics as well.
