Dino breaks his silence on Nandita

We liked each other

Dino and Nandita started dating, much after his break-up with Bipasha "Nandita had come to Mumbai. We met through common friends and hit it off instantly. We liked each other, and there was no need to propose, per se. It was obvious and understood."

Was it difficult for Dino to get over Nandita? A long pause and he says, "I was not in a heavy relationship with Nandita, unlike with Bipasha. So we still meet, but amidst common friends.

From there, sometimes our group even heads for a party. We talk to each other on the phone. When she reads any gossip about me, she calls to say 'Hey, I thought I was going to be the first one to know'."

On the rebound

Morea rewinds, "My relationship with Bipasha started straining during the making of Raaz. We tried to salvage our chemistry, but instead it started to bring out the worst in us. The split with Bipasha actually happened during the making of Gunaah. That was a tough period in my life."

There was never any marriage commitment between Mahtani and Morea, it was a relationship on the rebound. "I had split with Bipasha and Nandita had just come out of a relationship. We were not thinking in those terms."

All praise for her, he says, "Nandita is the most amazing person that I have met in my life so far. She has the biggest heart and she is very friendly."

I'm a bachelor now

Can you be friends with someone you have been physically attracted to? "When you hardly meet, you just can't do that again," he quips.

What about link-ups with Mahima and Amrita Arora? "Those were rumours. Mahima had broken up with Leander, Amrita had broken up with Upen Patel; people saw us talking and the rumours began. Today, I am enjoying my bachelorhood. But I am ready to mingle, if I fall in love again," he signs off.
