Bollywood has given us magical on-screen couples to rave about. While the jury may still be out on whether their happily-ever-after fairytale love is ruining it for the rest of us, I can vouch that just their sight is making a million among us believe in true love! Some of these on-screen couples make our hearts go mmmmm… Yep, the effect they have on our li’l blood-pumping machines is inexplicable. And I can bet a good Bill Gates-ian amount that they make rivers of gooey mush flow through my veins! The magic, the passion, the chemistry, the romance- there is hardly anything that is missing from their tales that keeps the promise of LOVE in our lives alive- except for a wish that some of these couples were real!
Check out our top picks for the reel couples we wish turned REAL:
1. Of course – Shahrukh Khan and Kajol!

That mystery, that chemistry, that romance… and love at a glance! We could stake anything, ANYTHING at all, to just manifest the love story of our beloved Raj and Simran into reality (pinky swear!)

How badly the humongous fandom of these mega-superstars prayed on the evening star to let this be true – the sensation of the era, Amitabh with the timeless one-of-a-kind beauty, Rekha…Uff! Even the thought makes us go …. “Kabhi kabhi mere dil mein khayal aata hai…”
3. Coz you can’t deny it’s there – Deepika Padukone and Ranbir Kapoor

Right from the time they shared screenspace for the first time, they had us drooling over their beyond-perfect flawlessness as a couple. The sexy immaculateness with which they complemented each other, (oh damn!) we WANT you back. We NEED you back! Can you do another YJHD for us, please?
4. The picture perfect jodi – Shahid Kapoor and Amrita Rao

A li’l Rajshri-ish (coz well, it was), you cannot deny the captivating effect their simple love story had on us- even as they morphed from a simply made-for-each-other couple in Ishq Vishq to the exceptionally made-for-each other couple we wanted to bless with an eternal ‘Vivah!’
5. The couple that will NEVER be but we wish could BE – Salman Khan and Aishwarya Rai

The eternal stud with the most beautiful woman in the world, ah…what a delight it was to have them together on-screen (and in life, of course). Can you imagine the hotness their babies would be? No, seriously!! How I wish Bajirao Mastani was made with the original choices! But- oh my poor heart- lost cause!
6. Hotness reloaded – Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif

Coz ishq de mere mitra pehchaan ki- mit jaave jadon jid apnan di..sacche pyaar ka matlab haasil karna nahi hota, yehi matlab hota hai na? *melt*
7. Lovebirds qayamat se qayamat tak– Aamir Khan and Juhi Chawla

Sweet, adorable and lovable beyond-compare, this on-screen couple gave us some major, major relationship goals. I wonder if those would have soared any higher if they were real!
8. How we wish these two MET and never parted – Shahid Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor

You cannot deny that the only thing we ever want (and perhaps, still do, in some corner of our hearts) is for this ‘jab we met’ couple to give us our ‘jab we got back together again’ moment! At least, I will be granted this one- onscreen- in Udta Punjab! God bless Bollywood!

9. Bunty aur Babli – Rani Mukerji and Abhishek Bachchan

I don’t know what it was- I still don’t know what it is- but every time Rani sings- Tum kaho toh rukein, tum kaho toh chalein, mujhko pehchaanti hai kahaan manzilein– I believe a l’il more that their ‘manzil’ lay in each other!
