Love is a funny thing. It can strike you anywhere, anytime, and in the most unexpected place. But the most popular love stories in Bollywood have started on the sets of a film. Looks like cupid loves meandering around film sets. But it’s natural for two people who work in the same profession and spend most of their time together, to fall in love. And we’re not complaining. We love it when our favourite on-screen duo has a happily-ever-after IRL. Let’s check out these couples who were struck by the cupid’s bow while shooting for a film and ended up being married! Read on:
Alia Bhatt & Ranbir Kapoor
#RanAlia are the latest addition to this list! The two bonded on the sets of Ayan Mukerji’s Brahmastra and instantly felt sparks. Alia even said that everyone around her was sure that something would happen with Ranbir and her. The actress has always admitted to having a crush on RK. The two inevitably fell in love and tied the knot after 5 years of dating. Can we please get access to Alia Bhatt’s manifestation process?
Deepika Padukone & Ranveer Singh
These two cuties fell in love with each other on the sets of Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Ram Leela. The fiery chemistry between the two that stunned the audience was something that even they couldn’t ignore. The couple dated for six years before they decided to take their vows. Now even after being together for ten years, Ranveer still stops in his tracks every time Deepika enters a room. *crying single tears*
Kareena Kapoor & Saif Ali Khan
If #CoupleGoals had to be advertised in any way, Saif and Kareena would be the ambassadors. They fell in love during the filming of the movie Tashan in 2008. While Kareena wanted to take things a little slow, Saif was sure he wanted to marry Bebo from the start. He even got her name tattooed on his arm! Finally, after rejecting his marriage proposal twice, Bebo finally said yes and tied the knot in October 2012.
Genelia D’souza & Riteish Deshmukh
These two are hands-down the most adorable couple on social media! Their super cute posts and reels exude pure love and affection for each other. However, not many know that their heartwarming love story began in 2002, on the sets of Tujhe Meri Kasam when Genelia was only about sixteen years old. The couple dated for ten years before they finally decided to tie the knot in 2012. Well, lucky are those who get to marry their teenage love. Genelia, we envy you!
Aishwarya Rai & Abhishek Bachchan
Although Aish and Abhishek worked on quite a few films together, real sparks flew when they were filming for Guru. Abhishek even mentioned in an interview, “The universe conspired to bring us together.” In 2007, Abhishek was shooting for a film in New York. He would think about being married to Aishwarya while sitting on the balcony of his hotel room. So, he decided to propose to her on the same balcony! Soon after, the couple got hitched. Hmm. Looks like the universe is just not working for single peeps like us.
As the saying goes—love is just around the corner. Well, looks like the corner is usually on film sets. BRB, gonna spend my weekend making fake marriage scenarios with my crush.
