Despite his efforts to get her to work with him again

The buzz is that a certain actress has reservations working with her ex and she might never work with him. The film that was offered to her was to be helmed by her ex beau's good friend for a producer known for his family stories.

Not the kind of a girl to refuse a film outright, this actress tried playing the diplomacy card. Naturally she didn't want to rub the influential producer the wrong way. Instead, she opted to bide her time till the director completed his script and give her the final narration.

In the meanwhile, the actress continued to nurse her heartbreak.

An insider adds, "They didn't part on an amicable note. He just dumped her abruptly and got involved with his co-star from another film, " adding that it was only later that the actress realised she had been taken for granted.

Our informer further reveals, "She recalled how he'd keep her waiting and ignore her pleas to meet when she was feeling down and depressed.

He would cite work-related excuses to avoid meeting her. She also reminisced feeling worse about the relationship and taking to drinking and smoking."

Fortunately, her support system helped her ensure that her depression didn't affect her performance for the rom-com she was shooting for earlier this year, says our source.

"She chose to not go ahead with this film. Even after the director had given up on signing her, the actor continued reasoning with her to do the film.

But she was not up to it and wants to get over him completely. She knows that if she's around him she might go back to wanting him, " summed up our informer.
