Dino Morea is reportedly having massive ego problems with his "Brahma" co-star Milind Soman over Bipasha Basu.

Asked about it, Dino laughed so hard that his spot-boy got alarmed.

"This is a new one for me. I've never had a problem with any of my co-stars. Why should I have a problem with Milind? Because he was supposed to be friendly with Bipasha when I was seeing her?" Dino asked.

"As far as I know, Bipasha and Milind have been friends for a long time. People just make a mountain out of a molehill. Our break-up had nothing to do with any other man," Dino told IANS

Dino is certainly taken aback by this piece of news.

"I wonder where such stories come from. I hardly know Milind well enough to have cold wars with him. I repeat I've never had problems with any of my co-stars. I shot 'Aksar' with Emraan Hashmi and now 'Aap Ki Khatir' with Akshaye Khanna and there was no problem.

"I'm essentially a hassle-free guy. Others don't bother me. Akshaye, Suniel Shetty and I got along like a house on fire in 'Aap Ki Khatir'. We were on an outdoor shoot in England for a month. We had a blast.

"Akshaye and I hung out together, watched movies. We would all sit around the fireplace in the freezing cold and play word games and 'antakshari'. As for Emraan and I in 'Aksar', I know him from the time when he used to assist Vikram Bhatt during 'Raaz' and 'Gunaah'."

Dino also goes into production soon.

"My director Shamim Desai has given me a complete script with shot-by-shot breakdown. It requires five actors - one of them will obviously be me. But the best role will go to a top actor."

Dino loved working with Dharmesh Darshan.

"He's very passionate about his shots. He instructed us actors very minutely. He was totally into it."

He's also all praise for Priyanka Chopra.

"From the time we worked together in 'Plan' to now in 'Aap Ki Khatir', she has come a long way. She knows what she wants and she works hard for it. She is gone from zero to a hundred."

Milind is the least of Dino's concerns in "Brahma".

"Milind plays my elder brother. I haven't shot with him. My co-star in the film is a very attractive model called Sheetal Menon. I wouldn't mind getting friendly with her. I remain blissfully single and more than happy to mingle."
