MUMBAI: Actresses often claim that the news hungry media makes up stories of their link ups with their heroes when they are “just good friends”.

However Vidya Balan recently confessed that she did have more than a good friendship going with her Kismat Konnection co-star Shahid Kapoor, who then callously moved on.

Through Kaminey the lead pair Priyanka Chopra and Shahid played hide-and-seek with the media... sometimes suggesting that they were more than good friends, and at other times pretending that they weren’t even speaking to each other. PC who is preparing to shoot Anjaana Anjaani with hot-shot Ranbir Kapoor doesn’t show any tell-tale signs that her friendship with her neighbour and Kaminey actor has gone kaput. However, studio gossip is that she is indeed a little rattled.

And now reports say that Anushka Sharma is very friendly with Shahid who is serenading her with songs in Parmeet Sethi’s directorial debut. The rumour mills suggest that Anushka and Shahid share a good equation on and off the sets. But, then of course, both actors will lead the paparazzi on a paper trail with their “we are good friends” line.
