Digvijay Singh and Amrita Rai have an age difference of about 24 years.

Do you believe age matters in a romantic relationship?

They are called May-December relationships -- the ones in which there's a huge age gap between the partners.

Be it Ryan Gosling and Sandra Bullock, or Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore, or -- closer home -- Amrita Rai and Digvijay Singh, May-December relationships aren’t exactly uncommon.

While such relationships can be fulfilling, they can also bring in their own set of challenges, personal as well as social.
