Julia Roberts reportedly converts to Hinduism after filming 'Eat, Pray, Love'

August 7, 2010 -- News comes today that when Julia Roberts was shooting the film 'Eat, Pray, Love' she reportedly made a big decision: To convert to Hinduism.

The 'Pretty Woman' actress is the daughter of a Baptist and a Catholic, says Jam Movies, who claims that while filming in India Roberts took a spiritual pilgrimage much like that of 'Eat Pray Love'  author Elizabeth Gilbert.

Out of that experience, the movie star learned about yoga, meditation and reincarnation -- something in which Julia Roberts is said to now hold as her own belief.

Roberts told Elle magazine:

'I'm definitely a practicing Hindu.'

Off the set, Julia and her family chant and celebrate life -- a peaceful existence for the new believer in Hinduism who stars in 'Eat, Pray, Love'. The new movie based on Elizabeth Gilbert's memoirs debuts in theaters next week.
