The actors - who have both repeatedly denied they are a couple - couldn't keep their hands off each other, often putting down their cutlery to nuzzle each others' necks.

One onlooker said: "They looked very happy together and they didn't seem to care who saw them. Dev couldn't take his eyes off her and she couldn't help cuddling up to him. They kept staring into each other's eyes. They were certainly acting like a couple, despite what they have both said. When they left the bar they split up and tried to act like they weren't together."

Freida, 24, was wearing a sexy, low-cut black top while Dev, 19, sported an open-neck blue striped shirt and dark sunglasses.

The pair played childhood sweethearts Jamal and Latika in Danny Boyle's Academy Award-winning film about a young boy's journey from growing up in the slums of India to appearing on TV quiz show "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?"

In February, their "Slumdog Millionaire" co-star Anil Kapoor claimed the pair were having a secret relationship.

Anil said at the time: "I think this is the beginning of something exciting. They definitely make a great pair and look very good together."

Shortly afterwards, Freida denied there was anything romantic going on, saying: "We're not dating. And anyway I won't talk about my relationship with Dev."
