Bipasha and Harman taking time off each other

Is it the beginning of the end of Bipasha Basu and Harman Baweja’s love story? Recently the grapevine was abuzz with Bipasha and Harman going their separate ways and swirling whispers indicated Harman's closeness to a foreign model named Olega as the prime reason behind the splitsville. Troubled by these rumours and with the intention of putting things in proper perspective, the duo released a joint statement yesterday evening in which they conceded to having had differences and taking 'time off' for the moment. Here's the joint statement: "We have had our differences but this rumour is rubbish & has nothing to do with us taking our time off. In our relationship we have been dignified & respect each other. We do not like people having a field day at our expense. Whether we continue or not, We do & will always respect each other and would request media to respect our privacy too instead of printing all kind of rumours without even verifying it with us." Bipasha and Harman made their relationship public early this year in February and were seen as the happy couple of B-town. Wedding bells were also slated to ring soon but with this announcement emergency brakes seem to have been applied. Let's hope this time off is just a temporary phase.
