So when Zac Efron and Julianne Hough found themselves in Atlanta on a Saturday night they knew just who to call - Nina Dobrev.

And the Vampire Diaries star came up with a great night out - taking the pair to bowling alley The Painted Pin, where they grabbed a photo with the owner, Justin Amick

Nina is based in Atlanta while she films her popular CW television series The Vampire Diaries. 

Meanwile Zac and Julianne are filming Dirty Grandpa in the city with Robert De Niro.

Nina and Julianne, 26, are close friends, so it was only natural they would hang out.

According to blog AJC the girls started the night as a twosome at the bowling alley - which serves a gourmet menu and offers a full bar - before later being joined by Julianne's co-star Zac.
