Of late Imran Khan's perky heroine from 'Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na' has been denying her relationship with Riteish Deshmukh with a cliché "we're just friends" statement.

She's reportedly said, "I'm very much single. Riteish is a friend. But that's it. I've no idea where these rumours come from. We're both very busy. When we occasionally meet up, we're normal with each other, not the least self conscious about what's written about us. I'm very new to all this.."

Is it because the girl wants to bask in the glory of her new found success and her re-launch as a teeny bopper character? And forget that she debuted in the disastrous 'Tujhe Meri Kasam' with him and also played an older character, a wife to him in 'Masti'?

After all these two movies also did nothing for her career in B-Town!

Maybe she thinks that 'being single' will help her revival in Bollywood more. Or has it something to do with Harman Baweja her co star in 'It's My Life' as the rumours suggest?

We'll never know since Genelia is only interested talking about her career taking off and she being noticed so much by all and sundry at last after five- six years!
