Bipasha Basu turned 31 on January 7. And the actress says she enjoyed every bit of attention on her birthday, unlike her model-turned-actor beau John Abraham who “runs the other way when it comes to cutting cakes”.
Says Bipasha, “John runs the other way when it comes to cutting cakes. I spent my whole birthday cutting cakes with different groups of family members and friends. I couldn’t take all the calls and SMSes, but I answered all of them on the day after my birthday.” “My house was filled with flowers. You have no idea how wonderful flowers look in a newly-renovated house. My home was fragrant and attractive. My two sweet maid-servants had arranged the bouquets all over the house,” the actress added.
While John hates birthdays and went into hiding on his birthday on December 17, Bipasha had no apprehensions in grabbing all the attention on hers. She came to Delhi with John and flew back to Mumbai in time for a family lunch.
“It’s an annual ritual on my birthday, and I won’t miss for the world. This time, one of my sisters was not here for my birthday. She’s studying. We really missed her. But my parents and my other sister, brother-in-law and nephew were home for my birthday. John was not invited for the lunch,” Bipasha said, adding, “This was my first birthday in Delhi. I was born in Delhi and have special links with it. So when I got a chance to be in the Capital for my birthday, I grabbed it.”

John was present in the Capital for the ongoing Auto Expo. “It was the Auto Expo and, as you know, John loves anything on wheels, but hates birthdays. So he was just happy being around some of the best cars in the world.”
After returning from the Expo, John spent a cozy evening with Bipasha. The two flew to Mumbai the next day. In Mumbai, John had arranged a birthday party for Bipasha at designer Rocky S’s house, where the actor had invited all her friends. John also gifted her a diamond ring along with matching earrings.
