Reacting strongly to rumours of the split, stunning Katrina Kaif might have slammed all malicious gossip about her love affair gone kaput with the macho of B-town Salman Khan. But what's latest is that the couple is yet to put forward a united front on the issue, as reportedly Katrina's conspicuous absence from Salman's grand bash at his Bandra residence at Galaxy Apartments on Saturday night continues to rage the gossip mills.

After going all out to tell off the break-up reports, one would have imagined the couple to show their solidarity and affection by making joint appearances. But on the contrary, the two continue to maintain their distance, sparking rumours that all is yet to be well. As to the whereabouts of Katrina, buzz has it that the babe must have been busy exchanging text messages with John. And one might call it a publicity stunt or cheap antics, but Kaif and Abraham's reported closeness has rocked the Sallu-Kat relationship in the most nasty way.

Even though the lovelorn twosome weren't hailed as Bollywood's ideal couple, the two did manage to keep their fracas under wraps. But with Katrina's growing proximity with Sallu's foe John, things went out of control, showing cracks in the quarrelsome lover's paradise. Now Katrina must be wondering ''Maine john ko mesaage kyu kiya?''
