The two Dostana heroes had a pleasant break while shooting in Miami. First Abhishek Bachchan had wife Aishwarya Rai join him on their first wedding anniversary and then John Abraham had Bipasha Basu for company.

‘It’s just for three days. My work got over on Monday in Switzerland, so I decided to rush to Miami to be with John before I went on to my next shoot,’ Bipasha said, happy at the thought of finally seeing John after a month.

The Karan Johar-produced Dostana, being directed by Tarun Mansukhani, also stars Priyanka Chopra in the female lead.

Bipasha was shooting in Europe with Ranbir Kapoor for Bachna Ae Haseeno.

‘I really enjoyed myself in the European summer. I had a super time shooting with Ranbir and my director Sid (Siddharth Anand). In fact, the entire unit was loads of fun. Italy was paradise. I enjoyed my time in Capri, Rome and Zurich.’

After her brief holiday in Miami, Bipasha rushes to Bangkok to join Neil Nitin Mukesh for a 40-day schedule of new-director Jehangir Surti’s Freeze.

Interestingly, in both Bachna Ae Haseeno and Freeze, Bipasha plays a woman slightly older than her co-stars.

Dusky and doe-eyed glamour girl Bipasha Basu, who got a makeover in Madhur Bhandarkar’s ‘Corporate’, is trying to create a balance between commercial and art house cinema by doing unusual films like ‘Pankh’.

“I believe that I do have the intelligence to understand that I need to keep the balance between commercial entertainer and art-house and only then can I command different audiences,” Bipasha told us.

“It is interesting for an actor to think about audience interest, but then I would not do a film like ‘Pankh’.”

In director Shudipto Chattopadhyay’s ‘Pankh’, Bipasha plays an imaginary character.

“I play an alter ego. I am an imaginary character - the protagonist in the film is a boy called Maradona; he has done a fabulous job,” said Bipasha who was recently seen in ‘Race’.

“It is about a boy who goes through gender confusion. He is a child artiste but plays a female child artiste and is very popular. Then he grows up and wants to be launched as a hero but there is a kind of confusion in his mind.

“The boy’s family is poor and they want to make it big. The pressure of parents and ridicule make it a very sad situation for him. Eventually he creates this imaginary character he is in love with. And that imaginary character happens to be an actress as well. It is quite a crazy role and many would say why Bipasha has done it, but I like it so I do it.”

Bipasha is also doing Rituparno Ghosh’s Bengali film ‘Shab Choritro Kalpanik’ where she plays Prasenjit Chatterjee’s wife who falls in love with her husband after his death.
