One-time Bollywood coupleu00a0-- Aftab Shivdasani and Aamna Shariffu00a0-- call it quits

Aftab Shivdasani and Aamna Shariff have gone their separate ways. The couple has not been spotted together for a while now. Buzz is that cracks began developing in their relationship in November, soon after the debacle of Aao Wish Kareinu00a0-- Aftab's productionu00a0-- which starred him alongwith his ladylove.



Says a source, "Things turned sour when Aftab began openly expressing that if he had a known actress for his co-star, things would've been better for Aao Wish Karein. An obviously miffed Aamna expressed her displeasure."

To her advantage?
Adds the source, "Somewhere down the line, Aftab also felt that the telly actress was utilising her friendship with him to her advantage. He took her along to several B-Town events and parties and she soon started developing her contacts as she was always keen to make it in Bollywood despite flop films to her credit."
Buzz is that the actor was keen to settle down with Aamna. She had even accompanied him to the US to meet his sister and her family who is based there.

The ex-files

Aftab was dating Czech model-actress Yana Gupta (best remembered for her Babujee Zara Dheere item number) before hooking up with Aamna. Though Aamna never accepted that she was seeing her Balaji soap co-star Rajeev Khandelwal, they were always considered a couple.

Aftab's aunt Rama responded to the SMS sent to him saying, "Aftab has high fever and can't comment."

Though both stars never acknowledged each other's presence in their lives, the first whispers of their romance trickled in as soon as they began shooting for Aloo Chat in 2008.

After her television outing as Kashish in the Balaji soap Kahiin To Hoga, it was a dream come true for Aamna when she was cast as a heroine. Aftab, on the other hand, agreed to star with a TV actress as he was the solo hero of the film. Aftab did not know Aamna before the shoot of the film. But both bonded on the sets from day one and were drawn to each other.
