Bipasha Basu is in high spirits. You talk to her and she’ll be oozing with confidence. Insiders say ever since she broke up with John Abraham there’s a spring in her step. She’s become more upfront about things, to the point that on occasions it borders on overstating. Recently when a pen-pusher asked Bipasha B about her real-life similarities to the role in her latest release, Jodi Breakers, she enthused, “Just like the character in the film, Sonali, I love to dress up and enjoy life. My philosophy towards life is to enjoy it to the fullest and have fun. I am one of those ‘laugh-out-loud’ kinds. I am quirky yet witty.”

Quirky is okay, but witty… well, Bips, think what you want.
