Did Bipasha Basu's rumoured ex Harman Baweja ditch a party because of her?

Bipasha Basu, who is now happily married to Karan Singh Grover was once linked to several hot men in the industry. From Dino Morea to John Abraham to Harman Baweja, she had a string of boyfriends before she found the love of her life, Karan Singh Grover. Bipasha and Karan recently got invited to an all expense paid trip to Goa by ‘Bang Bang’ director Siddharth Anand to celebrate his wife’s birthday.

Although, Bipasha and Karan’s attendance wasn’t confirmed until day before yesterday, all the other who were invited for the bash had given their nod. However, as soon as the Bipasha confirmed her and Karan Singh Grover’s attendance, one of the guests who also happened to be Bipasha’s rumoured ex reportedly pulled the plug.

As per reports, Harman Baweja, informed about his unavailability as soon as he heard that Bipasha and Karan were coming for the event. Bipasha and Harman were said to be in a relationship for a brief period, however, reports stated that it did not end on a great note for them. Thus, the two apparently still have some bitterness towards each other.

Anurag Kashyap didn't turn up for Kalki Koechlin's film's screening

Even after Anurag Kashyap and Kalki Koechlin had parted ways, they were on cordial terms with each other. However, seems like not all is well between the once married couple. According to a report on Spotboye.com, Kalki had invited Anurag for the special screening of her film, 'Waiting,' but Anurag didn't turn up. The report claims that when Kalki called Anurag to check as to what had happened he said that he couldn't make it as he was busy and also added that now that she was a National Award winner she would barely need him. Well, seems like reports of the 'Udta Punjab' ban might have taken a toll on the otherwise polite filmmaker, because he didn't turn up at the screening till the end.

While Anurag couldn't make it to the screening as kalki would have liked him too, some celebs bump into their exes quite unexpectedly. Let's take a look at such instances...

Aditya-Shraddha's romance rekindles

If a Spotboye report is to be believed, Shraddha Kapoor and Aditya Roy Kapur have kissed and made up. After rumours of differences between the two, the media was led to believe that the duo had split post their sizzling on-screen romantic stint in 'Aashiqui 2' and the reported whirlwind affair that followed. According to the reports, the couple met on the sets of their upcoming film, 'OK Jaanu,' and the romance allegedly rekindled. Well, it's always nice to see couples reuniting!

While Shraddha and Aditya have reportedly been lucky while working together, not every celeb has it as easy. Bumping into exes can be pretty unnerving but when you are in a close-knit industry, it becomes unavoidable. Read on to know instances of when exes came face to face with each other...

Estranged couple, Ranvir Shorey and Konkona Sen party together

Ranvir Shorey and Konkona Sen announced their separation in September 2015, but the two had back then declared that they would continue to be friends keeping their son, Haroon’s best interests in mind. And looks like the two have been true to their word. The duo was recently spotted at the Monkey Bar in Bandra bonding over a few drinks and having a good time. A report on Spotboye.com quoted a source saying that the two walked in together at around 11pm, sat in a corner and seemed pretty “happy and relaxed” in each others’ company. The source further revealed that the two even danced together for a while. Well, whoever said that separations are bitter clearly had not met Konkona and Ranvir!

Shahid Kapoor skips Saif-Kareena's bash

When Shahid Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan came together for 'Rangoon,' the gossip mills went into an overdrive speculating what this could mean. For the uninitiated, Shahid's much public affair with Kareena was the talk-of-the-town and post their break-up, the two have chosen to stay away from each other. However, with Kareena's husband, Saif, working with Shahid, it was expected that the two ex-lovers will bury the hatchet and be cordial. However, while they have spoken highly about the other in media, seems like not all is well. According to a Spotboye.com report, when Saif extended the olive branch towards Shahid, inviting him to a bash, the latter chose to ignore it. Shahid instead reportedly spent time at home with his apparently pregnant wife.

It is never easy for exes to come face to face with each other, given their history. However, due to the fact that actors work in the same circles, bumping into each other becomes inevitable. Let's take a look at what happens then...

Arpita Khan gave Arjun Kapoor the cold shoulder?

Arjun Kapoor is busy with his career and Arpita Khan, who is married to Aayush Sharma, is all set to become a mother. However, for the uninitiated, Arjun and Arpita were allegedly dating each other, much before the former made his Bollywood debut. The two apparently ended up on a bitter note and haven't seen eye-to-eye ever since. In a report on Spotboye.com, the two came face to face at a recent event, but Arpita walked past him without exchanging any pleasantries. Arpita's husband, Aayush too ignored Arjun's presence at the do. Looks like the alleged former lovers are in no mood to let bygones be bygones.

We earlier informed you how Salman had visited Katrina on the sets of a TV show where the latter was promoting her upcoming film ‘Fitoor’ with Aditya Roy Kapur.

Everyone has been waiting for the details of Rajkummar Hirani’s biopic on Sanjay Dutt.
