Bipasha Basu won’t be attending beau John Abraham’s brother’s wedding

Bipasha Basu won’t be attending beau John Abraham’s brother Alan’s wedding in Romania on May 25. Bips is currently shooting for Freeze, directed by Jehangir Surti.

Originally, Bips was to fly down to Romania with John for Alan’s wedding to Anka, a Romanian girl. But now, the actress won’t be able to attend the wedding. She’s citing professional reasons for missing the big family function. Says a source from the industry, “Though John is maintaining a tight-lipped silence about Bips’s attendance, he’s a bit miffed about her absence at the first wedding in his family.”

Initially, the couple had planned to take a short summer holiday in Romania after the wedding as both had been leading a hectic lifestyle and weren’t able to spend too much time together. Now that plan stands cancelled too.

However Bipasha laughs off the rumours. “Please don’t make this an issue. The wedding is an important and auspicious occasion and there is no problem between John and me. It’s true that I can’t make it for Alan’s wedding. My schedule in Bangkok is too tight and they can’t shoot without me. But there is a proper reception for Alan and Anka on June 7, which I will attend. It’s sad that I will miss their wedding in Romania but I guess I will celebrate doubly at the reception.”

Bipasha has been leading a very hectic life for the last few months. “I have been in Italy and Switzerland for a month for Bachna Ae Haseeno. I can’t attend IIFA too as I have to be back for Alan’s reception. I couldn’t take off for the wedding because of the Freeze schedule.” Bips hasn’t been seen for a single IPL match in India. She says, “I have been out of India throughout the IPL matches. I enjoyed the Yash Raj schedule and now am enjoying the Bangkok one.”

Besides Freeze, Bipasha’s next releases are Yash Raj Films Bachna Ae Haseeno, Sanjay Gupta’s Pankh and Rituparno Ghosh’s next.
