/> One of Bollywood's most romantic love stories has ended. Saif Ali Khan has split with his long-time girlfriend Rosa.

Rosa left for her home in Switzerland a few days back. The course of her future is not clear. According to some of her friends, she's expected back in Mumbai after some time to pursue a career independent of her association with Saif.

Saif, recuperating at home from a heart scare, now has a broken heart to deal with.

Sounding calm yet troubled he says, "Rosa and I have decided to part ways. Yes, she has gone back home. That's about all I want to say at the moment."

Saif isn't alone at home, though. He had son Ibrahim for company on Friday evening.

"I'm holding up fine. I want to spend as much time as possible with my children while I'm on this enforced vacation. By doctor's orders I'm off work for this month. I'll start going to the gym early next month and resume work by the middle of April. I can't pretend that Rosa's going hasn't added to recent setbacks. But it's for the best, I guess."

Thus ends one more seemingly ever-lasting love story in the entertainment industry. According to close friends, Saif is far more hurt by the split than he's willing to admit.

"Things were getting sticky between them. And the split was for the best for both of them," says a close buddy.
