Rosa Catalano is being painted as the villain in the relationship since her split with Saif Ali Khan, with certain sections of the media accusing her off showbiz ambitions consequentially driving the couple apart.

She has returned home to Switzerland and is not keen to defend herself owing no explanations to any one, as to what went wrong.

Australian actor Tania Zaetta (last seen in Salaam Namaste and Bunty Aur Babli), who was one of Rosa's closest friends in Mumbai, though has no qualms about speaking up for Rosa.

Tania says, "Rosa is my dearest friend in India. There are very few people you meet who are as warm, giving, friendly and honest as Rosa. She helped me through many tough times and it wasn't easy being on my own in a foreign land, so it was a blessing to have a close buddy, also a foreigner, living the Bollywood life.

"One hopes that Rosa and Saif would be able to work through their differences, but out of respect for them we should let them deal with the relationship their own way.

It's important to remember that Rosa didn't choose a career in the entertainment industry like others, but found herself in the limelight because of her relationship with Saif," insists Zaetta.
