Breakups and patch ups are not new in Bollywood, from Guru Dutt to Ranbir Kapoor and from Wahida Rehman to Kareena. It is general perception that bollywood is not good at maintaining long term relationships. Age, religion and status are not a concern in Indian film industry to build a relation, still bollywood encounter many breakups. Let’s have a look at top five breakups in Bollywood.


1. Bollywood Superstar Salman Khan and Aishwarya Rai Salman began to date Aishwarya after acting with her in 1999's Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam’. Rumors already existed then that Salman Khan had physically abused a former girlfriend, Pakistani actress Somy Ali. However, Aishwarya, madly in Salman’s love, dared to ignore that. After ample amount of controversies, Salman and Ash broke-up. Ash is proud to be a Bachchan Bahu and Salman is having a good time with Katrina as girl friend.


2. Amitabh Bachchan and Rekha Undoubtedly, Rekha and Amitabh is the most talked about couple in Bollywood till date. Starting from ” Do Anjane” this electrifying pair have appeared in “Alaap“, “Imaan Dharm“, “Khoon pasina“, ” Ganga ki saugandh“, “Muqaddar ka sikandar“,” Mr Natwar Lal“,” Suhaag“, “Ram Balram“, and Silsila. Well Silsila ended their pairing together and film was not commercially successful inspite of the propaganda that it was based on their real life story.


3. Shahid Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor One of the most publicized break-up in bollywood. This one came as a shock to most people. After all, Kareena and Shahid had been seeing each other for the last three-odd years. Too much has been written about why and how it all happened. Soon enough Kareena was seeing Saif and Shahid is busy with Vidya Balan and later Priyanka Chopra.


4. Abhishek Bachchan and Karishma Kapoor Karisma Kapoor was publicly declared as the Bachchan bahu at Amitabh Bachchan’s 60th birthday. However before anyone could say ‘Karisma Kapoor-Bachchan’ it was announced to the media that it was all over. Sources revealed that Jaya Bachchan was not in favor and that was that. It seems, had to tread very carefully because her daughter Shweta is married to Karisma’s father Randhir Kapoor’s nephew Nikhil Nanda. Abhishek and Karishma did a film together “Haan mainebhi pyaar kiya hai” which turned out to be a disaster, just like their relationship.


5. Saif Ali Khan and Amrita Singh Chhote Nawab and Amrita Singh married for decent time and with two kids, unfortunately could not have been stronger. Saif had a shaky start to his career, then Kal Ho Na Ho happened and of course the famous Hum Tum. Saif got his first solo hit in the latter and said goodbye to Amrita. Sources claimed that he even withdrew all the money from their joint account just days before dropping the bombshell. Saif and Kareena are amongst most talked about couple these days.
