Southern actor Rana Daggubati, who is set to make his Bollywood debut in Dum Maaro Dum, has denied rumours of a relationship with co-star Bipasha Basu.
"I have immense respect for Bipasha as a co-star and it's embarrassing that people should think otherwise. Don't know where the rumours keep creeping up from over and over again!" Daggubati tweeted.
The 25-year-old actor, who has been reportedly dating Shriya Saran for the past five years, is said to have had a rift with her - thanks to his closeness to Basu. However, Daggubati has denied anything more than a friendship with Saran.
"Shriya has known me since I was in college. We've been great friends for over 8 yrs now. All other gossips are FALSE! (sic)," he added.
Dum Maaro Dum, also starring Abhishek Bachchan, releases in April.
