“Slumdog Millionaire” star Freida Pinto says that at the Oscars Ceremony, Hollywood actor Mickey Rourke had told her to go home because he thought she was too young to be there.

Rourke approached the actress at the prestigious awards ceremony February and advised her to head home to bed, reported femalefirst.co.uk.

“Mickey Rourke gave me a telling off at the Oscars. He said to me, ‘It’s way past your bedtime – go home,’ which was funny!” said the 24-year-old actress.
