That was then: Former partners John Abraham and Bipasha Basu Bipasha Basu and John Abraham defined the term 'super couple' in Bollywood much before Saifeena arrived.
Eight years of love and a much hyped break-up later, both Bipasha and John had moved on and found new partners.
While Bipasha was rumoured to be dating South star Rana Daggubati, John was supposedly involved with Asin and most recently, an investment banker from the U.S.
But now, both of them are 'officially single' and enjoying it.
Bipasha chose to give her take on love. She said: 'I can teach everyone the language and lessons of love, very well. For me, love is very important. I think my biggest priority in life is love. And it's not just man-woman love, but love for family, friends, work etc.'
Bips and John were always seen hand in hand, complementing each other's presence at all occasions till they broke up in early 2011.
But, when the relationship was on the rocks, the rift was too evident, laid bare for sundry and all to see.
Rumours reached a point when talks were such that John refused to work with Bips.
Without any hard feelings, Bipasha added: 'I believe that if one relationship doesn't work out then that is not the end of the world. You have to move on. Like how I am celebrating being single this season.'
True to it, Bipasha surely doesn't need any man in her life as she had a great time with her girlfriends as she celebrated her birthday earlier this month.

Bipasha Basu had to cancel her busy shooting schedule because of conjunctivitis.
'Contracted conjunctivitis in the morning, had to cancel my shoot. Feel helpless as we have so much work pending. These are times you realise the stress of a job of an actor! Entire unit waiting for you and you don't have specific answer to give (sic),' Bipasha tweeted.
The 33-year-old actress also thanked fans for liking her new item song song, Bipasha Bipasha choreographed by Bosco-Ceaser.
'Thank you all for loving Bipasha the song from Jodi Breakers! (sic),' she added.
Ameesha Patel They say what goes around comes around. And Ameesha Patel couldn't agree more.
The actress, who had once slammed Kareena Kapoor for playing a prostitute in Chameli, will be playing a sex worker for her home production.
Ameesha had announced two movies under her newly formed production banner Ameesha Patel Productions, along with her friend Kunal Goomer.
One will be directed by Priyadarshan and another by David Dhawan.
Ameesha will be playing a prostitute for the latter. The film is likely to go on floor in April and will be shot in Prague.
The 36- year-old will be visiting the country soon to know more about their culture and mannerism as her character will be based in Prague.
David will start working on the film once he wraps up his Chashme Baddoor remake. So far this year is looking pretty good for Ameesha. She has many big films in her kitty as of now.

If you want to look right, you have to learn to love your body, says model-turned-Bollywood item girl Yana Gupta.
'Love yourself unconditionally. If you look in the mirror and don't like what you see, you don't start it... It all starts with the love, energy and the relaxation that comes into your life with loving yourself,' Yana said at the Jaipur Literature Festival.
Glowing after her battle to get the right body and inner calm, she lent a touch of glamour to the literature gala where she dropped in to promote her book, How to Love Your Body and Have the Body You Love - a fitness guide book published by Penguin India.

R MadhavanR. Madhavan charmed the ladies with his small but power packed performance in Rang De Basanti.
He followed that up with significant roles in Guru, Mumbai Meri Jaan and 13B.
More recently he was seen in Tanu weds Manu opposite Kangna Ranaut, moving away from serious genre. Soon, he will be seen in Jodi Breakers, an offbeat comedy.
Talking about the story he said: 'If there can be agents for marriage, they should be there for divorce too. In the film, we don't create break-ups but try to get the two people apart who are not satisfied in life. We give them another chance.'
The film was initially titled Shaadi Fast Forward but the makers settled for Jodi Breakers to give it a unique feel.
