Akshay Kumar and Shilpa Shetty
Being friends after a breakup is one tricky feat to be. But seems like many Bollywood stars have achieved the same and hugged out their differences maturely. First on the list are Akshay Kumar and Shilpa Shetty. No one would have ever thought that after the much publicised affair and subsequent breakup, the two would ever come together. But defying every norm, they met again like old friends, on the sets of a reality show, and let bygones be gone.
Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone
If there is one ex-couple that should be applauded for its professional commitments, it is that of Deepika Padukone and Ranbir Kapoor. The two were happily committed till they called it quits and shocked everyone. There was some nasty name-calling as well. But then the two reconciled like buddies and even went on to give two beautiful movies; ‘Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani’ and ‘Tamasha’.
Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif
Looks like Ranbir Kapoor surely claims the top spot when it requires being a gentleman, even with an ex. Post breaking up with Deepika Padukone, the actor was in a relationship with Katrina Kaif, before the two broke up. However, even though there was discomfort and cold war brewing, the two forgot it all when they came together for ‘Jagga Jasoos’, and their camaraderie, both in the movie and during promotions, won hearts.
Ranveer Singh and Anushka Sharma
The two started off like fire with Ranveer’s debut and Anushka’s second venture ‘Band Baaja Baaraat’. However, some time and Ranveer’s philandering nature later, the relationship hit rock bottom. But now the two are happily committed to different people, and good friends in reality. Who can forget the Dubsmash Anushka did for Ranveer’s ‘Bajirao Mastani’, or even when Ranveer interrupted Anushka’s interview to express his views on her ‘Bhootni’ avatar in ‘Phillauri’.
Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif
Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif had been reportedly dating for a long time, before they called it quits and Katrina started dating Ranbir. However, post that phase and a cold war later, the two are friends. They came together for ‘Tiger Zinda Hai’, and their chemistry simply sparkled, whether during the synchronised action sequences, or that of romance.
Bipasha Basu and Dino Morea
Bipasha and Dino had started dating during their modelling days, which continued into the initial phase of their Bollywood career, and ended when Bipasha moved on with John Abraham. However, years later, even though Bips and John broke, her friendship with Dino is still intact. Dino even attended Bipasha’s wedding to Karan Singh Grover.
Bollywood is one fickle place to be. While there are couples who set goals for us with the longevity of their love, there are ones who call it quits and shock us. And then there are ones who hug it out and be cordial, friendly and professional, even after the breakup. Take a look.
