Gerard Butler treats ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ kids to a day out in India

fp_2157736_barm_slumdog_mil
Last week, we reported on Gerard Butler’s booty call to India – all to woo 26-year-old Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra. The initial reporting out of India seemed to indicate that Gerard might be mixing business with pleasure, as he was not only seen spending time with Priyanka, but there were rumors he was scouting locations for a to-be-announced film.

Gerard is still in India, and now all indications are that he’s solely focused on Priyanka, that lucky bitch. He’s not only spending time with her, but he also organized a little mini-holiday for the child actors of Slumdog Millionaire. This is just the kind of reporting that I would normally think “what a crock”. But there are pictures! Gerard hanging out with these adorable kids.

Slumdog Millionaire’s child stars were given a day out at a five star hotel courtesy of Scottish actor Gerard Butler and looked on as the star of 300 attempted to wooh Bollywood’s top celebrity Priyanka Chopra.

The kids as well as Azhar and Rubina first met Butler at the Oscars in February 2009. He is said to have fallen for their innocence and charm, but it was another Indian actor, 26-year-old Chopra, who really caught the Scottish actor’s eye.

Last night Chopra had thrown a party for Butler, who is in India on holiday. A guest at the party said Butler is “besotted” with Chopra and repeatedly asked her to marry him, until police broke up the bash for being too noisy.

“He was completely smitten with Priyanka,” the source said. “He kept proposing to her every half an hour, getting down on his knee. Every time, she burst out laughing.”

Chopra also caught Richard Branson’s eye last year in Dubai, where he told her: “You’re the only woman worthy of being called a goddess. You’re the most beautiful woman in the world.”

“He kept proposing to her every half hour, getting down on his knee.” Get off my boyfriend, Priyanka! In any case, now I have new Gerard Butler fantasy, one in which he’s begging me to marry him every thirty minutes as we’re surrounded by the lovely Slumdog Millionaire children. Swoon!

Here’s my question: is Gerard Butler hanging out with the Slumdog Millionaire kids because he thinks they’re little sweethearts, and he wanted to hang out? Is his heart that big? Or is this just a maneuver to win Priyanka Chopra, trying to show her that he’ll do anything to win her heart? I know that I’m very biased about Gerard, but I really think he just wanted to hang out with the cool Slumdog Millionaire kids.

    this is an adorable story! i absolutely love those kids they are so adorable. Since they all met at the oscars, its only natural that they would all hang out, i highly doubt he is just using them to get to Priyanka.

  2. ferdis says:

    who cares? I am interested in the guy behind Butler.

  3. gg says:

    I love the inside quote “to wooh Bollywood’s top celebrity”

    So he grabs her ears and looks into her eyes and goes … WOOOOOOOH!

  4. Jo says:

    Wow, if he is acting that way around Priyanka Chopra, he would be a blithering fool around Frieda Pinto, who I think, hands down, is the most beautiful new actress around.

  5. Codzilla says:

    I’d totally do him.

  6. ferdis says:

    this picture looks like photosohped…the yellow boy just dont fit.

  7. Tintangel says:

    Who’s the tall guy in the background? Gerry’s “partner” perhaps?

  8. daisy424 says:

    Ditto Codzilla, we can dream…….

  9. Ceenitall says:

    Who is the little chief next to the guy behind GB? Is that a tiny pocket cook or what?

  10. ChristinaT says:

    sounds like such a photo op… and why aren’t there any pictures of these two supposed couple together????

  11. jayem says:

    Is that her in the first thumbnail? She IS beautiful, but no more so than Aishwarya Rai, or anyone else. She must have an awesome personality for these men to be fawning all over her like that!

  12. Kerry says:

    Dude, his people contacted GerardButler.net and refuted the story two days ago. Priyanka has a boyfriend who was at the party with her. His rep deny he proposed or that there was anything going on. How is it that I scooped a gossip site.

  13. ChristinaT says:

    yeah i call BS on this story… i have yet to see a single photo of them together…

    and what IS up with that tiny chef in the background? is this just a bad photoshop? cardboard cutout? bring your own midget day? wtf?

  14. Shay says:

    Probably felt bad for the kids. Sad situation to be in the movie is making money but the kids still live in the slums.

  15. SixxKitty says:

    I choose to believe he wants to do that for the kids, I mean, while in India, why not? And if it helps win the love of a beautiful woman, wheres the harm?

  16. really? says:

    why the hell would she want him? maybe for a fling but not as a bf. he’s too much of a sl*t.
