Meet actress who refused to stay with her husband in same room, even created drama to kiss him on screen; She is..., husband is...
This is the story of a girl born in Kolkata and brought up in Delhi, who began her career through modelling. Tagged as a 'dusky-skinned' girl, she went on to build a successful career as a fashion model. She did exactly what she set out to do; she rose to the top in modelling and then transitioned into Bollywood. The moment she arrived, she stunned everyone with her style and soon began ruling the industry. Known for her work in several item numbers, she was often cited in the media as a sex symbol. This model landed her first Bollywood project in 2001, sharing the screen with Kareena Kapoor Khan, Akshay Kumar, and Bobby Deol. The movie was Ajnabee, and the actress is Bipasha Basu. She even won the Best Female Debut Award for her performance in the film. In 2003, her career progressed with a leading role in the erotic thriller Jism. She was paired opposite John Abraham, who made his debut in the movie. Bipasha portrayed the role of a seductive, ambitious wife of a millionaire, who indulges in an extramarital affair. Basu's performance in the film earned her a nomination for the Filmfare Award for Best Villain. But today she has been away from the industry for the last several years. The actress who used to wreak havoc with her beauty and fitness has changed a lot these days. She has even been trolled many times. Bipasha Basu married Karan Singh Grover and then… In 2016, Bipasha Basu married Karan Singh Grover. The two met on the sets of the film Alone in 2015. They now have a daughter named Devi. In an old explosive interview, singer Mika Singh revealed that working with Bipasha and Karan was one of the most horrible experiences he ever had. The couple was part of a project together, and since they were married, the team had allotted them a single room. However, the duo refused to stay together and even declined to perform an on-screen kiss. Mika shared, 'I took a team of 50 to London for a month-long schedule. However, it was extended to two months. Karan and Bipasha created a lot of drama. They were a married couple, so I booked a single room for them. But they were like, 'No, we need our separate rooms.' I didn't understand the logic. They then demanded to move to a different hotel. We did that as well.' Remembering the discussion of the kissing scene, Mika recalled, 'They are husband and wife, and yet they created drama around kissing each other on screen. These stars fall on the feet of big producers like Dharma Productions and Yash Raj Films and keep praising them for even the tiniest roles, but their attitude changes when it comes to smaller producers. Aren't we also spending money?'
