Bipasha Basu ruled the Bollywood industry in the 2000s. The actress debuted with Bobby Deol and Akshay Kumar in the 2001 film Ajnabee, and she thereafter carved out a successful career for herself in the acting industry. But after starring in the 2003 film Jism, Bipasha shot to fame, winning over both fans and critics with her high praise. Despite securing her status as one of Bollywood’s leading actresses, Bipasha has been absent from the screen for a while.
During her peak acting career, Bipasha Basu fell deeply in love with John Abraham, her co-star in Jism. She did, however, shock the internet when rumours of her kissing Cristiano Ronaldo, a legendary player for Manchester United, went viral. For those who do not know, Cristiano is among the all-time great football players. Coming back to the Bipasha and Cristiano incident, it took place in 2007, long before Cristiano became recognised as one of the most thrilling superstars of all time. Bipasha Basu also appeared to benefit from Cristiano’s attraction, even though girls were smitten with him.
According to numerous media sources, Bipasha Basu and Cristiano Ronaldo were later seen chatting happily at a party after attending an event together. But the couple seemingly made waves online when their kissing picture surfaced. There are rumours that Bipasha and Cristiano became so infatuated with each other at a club in Lisbon, Portugal, that they even got a bit physical. Despite the fact that rumours of the couple’s romance went viral, neither Bipasha nor Ronaldo ever released an official comment about it.
After that, Bipasha Basu talked openly about meeting Cristiano Ronaldo and revealed that they thought the other was cute in an interview with a media portal. She recalled that incident as a dream come true and said that Ronaldo even promised to invite her to his events. She said, “Meeting him was a dream come true. After the event, we went out clubbing, and that was simply fantastic. He is so cute, and it was strange when he called me cute … He is a friend now, and he has promised me that I will be invited for all his matches.”
But as the story goes on, things become more dramatic. For those who don’t know, Bipasha was dating John Abraham at the time, and their relationship collapsed when her photos of the two of them kissing appeared online. Furthermore, it was said that John was considering ending his relationship with Bipasha since he was so upset by the incident. However, John favoured a reconciliation as he was deeply in love with the actress, and eventually, the issue was resolved. But as fate would have it, John and Bipasha shocked everyone by calling it quits on their more than eight-year live-in relationship.
