Mumbai, January 09: Bipasha Basu had a double celebration of her birthday (January 7) one in Delhi with boyfriend John Abraham and another in Mumbai with John and close family and friends.
Talking about her birthday, Bipasha says, “John and I were at the Auto-Expo in Delhi. He stayed back to celebrate my birthday with me. The weather was beautiful and we had a lovely cozy evening together.”
Bipasha says she would have loved to stay on for another day but her parents were waiting for her in Mumbai.
“John and I flew down to Mumbai in the morning and had a lovely lunch with my parents, sister Bidisha and my nephew. In the evening, John had arranged for a surprise party at my close friend designer Rocky S’s home.
Everyone popped out from all sides when I walked into his house.”
Bipasha says she loves birthdays. “It’s one of my favourite days in the year and I become just like a little girl when it comes to my birthdays.
I want to live life to the fullest. John, on the other hand, hates birthdays and doesn’t like to celebrate any day as a special one.”
Bipasha also got some special gifts this year including a ring with a huge diamond and matching earrings from John. “Only my boyfriend can afford diamonds and diamonds are a must for me.
I also got some wonderful gifts from my family and friends. One of my biggest fans, Preity from Indore, sends me little knick-knacks like bracelets and gifts for Posto every year by courier,” she says.
“Each gift matters a lot. My girls (house help) at home decorated the entire house with flowers and kept a cake lit for me that I cut when I entered the house,” she added.
