This had sparked off rumors that the two were romantically involved with each other off the screen too. There were stories that when he went to Kerala, Jayam Ravi had made it a point to visit her parents and spend some time with them.

Bhavana is now working in a Tamil film named 'Jayam Kondaan' with Vinay as the hero. For its music launch, someone had invited Jayam Ravi as one of the chief guests. Unfortunately, he walked in late, while other bigshots like Manirathnam and Kamalhasan were already on the dais.

"I'm so sorry that I was late, but when it comes to shooting, I'm very punctual and always on time. In fact, when Bhavana and I were working in 'Deepavali', I used to be there atleast one hour earlier and she was the one who always used to be late," he said.

When Bhavana's turn came, she said, "Jayam Ravi was the one who was always late. He was never on time for shooting. I was always on time and we used to wait for him to turn up. He is lying through his teeth." Everybody present on the stage began to laugh at the embarrassment that Jayam Ravi found himself in.
