When Bollywood stars fell in love with their co-stars!
Hollywood hotties Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone, who met on the sets of The Amazing Spider-Man, have been going steady as a couple ever since.
We decided to look closer home, at Bollywood romances that started on film sets. Take a look:
Abhishek and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan
Even though this couple had done several films like Dhai Akshar Prem Ke and Kuch Na Kaho before, sparks flew on the sets of Mani Ratnam's Guru.
After a brief courting period, Abhishek reportedly popped the question and the couple got married in 2007.
Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif
Ranbir and Katrina never made their relationship official.
But word on the street was that this leading couple of Ajab Prem Ki Gazab Kahaani cosied up on the sets of the film and dated briefly before going their separate ways.
Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor
Bollywood's royal couple Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor are set to tie the knot this October.
The two met on the sets of 2008's Tashan and have been together ever since.
Shahid Kapoor and Vidya Balan/Priyanka Chopra
Shahid Kapoor seems to turn all his charm on his movie sets.
He allegedly dated Vidya Balan while the two were shooting for Kismet Konnection. Later, it was his Kaminey costar Priyanka Chopra.
The couple had an on-again-off-again relationship before they finally called it quits. Their latest film together Teri Meri Kahaani, unfortunately, could not cash in on their alleged romance.
Riteish Deshmukh and Genelia D'Souza
One of the most secretive couples in Bollywood, Riteish and Genelia managed to keep their relationship away from the media glare for nine years, right up to the time news of their marriage was made official.
The couple met on the sets of their debut film, Tujhe Meri Kasam (2003), and had reportedly been together ever since.
Ajay Devgn and Kajol
Ajay Devgn and Kajol started seeing each other while they were shooting for their 1998 hit Pyar Toh Hona Hi Tha. They got married the next year.
Dharmendra and Hema Malini
This star couple had formed their own little mutual admiration club before they hit it off on the sets of Ramesh Sippy's Sholay in 1975.
The couple tied the knot in 1980, and recently celebrated their daughter Esha Deol's wedding.
Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bhaduri
Prakash Mehra's 1973 blockbuster did not only change Amitabh Bachchan's career. It also changed his life.
It was in this film that he met his then future wife Jaya Bhaduri, an established actress of the time who agreed to star opposite a relative newcomer at the time.
They got married a month after the film's release.
Madhubala and Kishore Kumar
This one happens to be a union that was poised to fail from the outset.
After her affair with Dilip Kumar ended on a sour note, a dejected Madhubala settled for the funny Kishore Kumar whose sense of humour appealed to her while the pair was working on Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi (1958). They got married two years later.
Dev Anand and Kalpana Karthik
Dev Anand and Kalpana Karthik fell in love on the sets of Taxi Driver (1954). After the film released and was declared a hit, the couple got married in a quiet ceremony.
