To further exemplify her star quality, she ranked at No. 7 on the list of Top Bollywood Actresses of 2006.

Bipasha s debut film Ajnabee was fairly successful and she was soon signed for other movies. She attracted attention with her roles in Raaz and Jism . Jism featured more mature content than had previously been customary in Bollywood; it was a success and Bipasha was afterwards marketed as a sex symbol. As the female lead in Corporate , she received much acclaim for her performance. She has also appeared in music videos, such as Tu Kab Ye Janegi... for Sonu Nigam s album, Kismat and in Jay Sean s Stolen.

As for her love life, she was seeing hottie John Abraham till rumours of their break-up came by. Apparently, the picture of football soccer star, Christiano Ronaldo, kissing her, flashed all over the newspapers and TV channels and it led to the break-up. However, the latest reports are that John and Bipasha are soon to get engaged.
