Professionally, Bipasha Basu is going great guns with meaty roles, big banners and much goodwill coming her way with regularity. On the personal front, however, life hasn`t been quite as rosy for the dusky beauty.

Her off-today-on-tomorrow relationship with Dino Morea has become the butt of ridicule in tinsel town.Her tiffs with Dino spilled over into her work for the forthcoming film, Gunaah, which features the real-life pair in the lead roles along with Ashutosh Rana. Some of the on-screen altercation scenes were straight out of her own life. And the cathartic experience of spouting lines that she often utters in real life seems to have altered Bipasha for good.

In Gunaah, Rana plays the calming force in the lovers` life. We wonder who will step in and hold the balance in real life. Could it be Bipasha`s long-time friend Milind Soman?
