We're still on our honeymoon - that's what one of the signs on the table of a restaurant on the Gold Coast where Bipasha Basu and Karan Singh Grover were seated, read. The 'Aussie Monkeys' who tied the knot on April 28, 2016, took off to Sydney to ring in New Year and bring in Bipasha's 38th birthday on Saturday night. “I'm catching up with my friend Hemang who is married and settled in Australia with an adorable baby,“ gushed the birthday girl who also shared a video of Ayan and Ishaan, sons of her US-based friend Suzanne Dadhich, singing, “It's your birthday, let's pardaay (sic),“ on the same day. She admitted that her birthday is extremely special to her because she loves celebrating the day she was given this gift of life.

The couple visited the quaint town of Leura which boasts of the 'Blue Mountains' and spent time at Watsons Bay. On Sunday they were at Sydney's Sea World and while asserting that she's not a compulsive shopper, Bipasha admitted that she loves sunglasses and her hubby has bought her a cool pair of glares, as always.

The duo is known for their perfect beach bods and healthy lifestyle but till the next weekend, it's binge time. “I'm a foodie and the seafood here is amazing. We try something new every day and I've lost track of any diet,“ she says, adding that she plans to get back to work once she's back. “I'm in a very happy personal space and now it's time to focus on the professional front. I've worked for 15 years and fulfilled all my responsibilities, so, I'm allowed to let go for a bit and have fun, right?“ she quips.
