Seems like dusky beauty Bipasha Basu and south cinema actor Rana Daggubati have a very thick friendship. So much so that that the Bollywood bombshell went out of the way to fly down and meet the DMD co-star on his birthday on the 14th December. Bips made sure that the actor wasn’t aware of her arrival as it was a planned surprise for her ‘special friend’.

As reported by a daily, says a source, "Bipasha and Rana were in Goa last week shooting and hanging out with friends. Once Rana left, she decided to make a surprise visit to Hyderabad for his birthday. She left from Mumbai the evening before to bring in his birthday with him. Bips is scared of flying, but that didn`t stop her from wanting to spend some quality time with Rana. Even though she`d bought him an expensive present, for Rana the best gift was her surprise arrival."
