She suddenly decided to withdraw into a shell.
"She suddenly became a recluse. Wouldn't go out with us. Would just disappear after shoot," says one of her co-stars.
Explains Bipasha, "Sometimes even I have my moods. I know they all got anxious. I was going out every night with them. Usually I don't go out while I'm shooting because I like to report the next morning on time, and fresh. But in Durban they'd all wait for me to finish gym and we'd all go out every night."
After twenty days of swinging till the wee hours Bipasha had a mood swing. "I just didn't want to go out any longer. They got panicky. 'What happened? What's wrong?' Akshaye Khanna got specially insistent.
But there was nothing wrong. I just wanted to call it a day at a decent hour, watch a film or Lost on DVD and sleep early. So for the next fifteen days I didn't go out at all."
Apparently the unit was extremely worried.
"I know," Bipasha grins. "It was hard for them to accept that I wanted to be alone. 'Hey guys can I just watch my DVD, please? The fact is, I'm a home bird. I like to be on my own. For me to shoot the whole day, work out and then go out is too much effort."
