Bollywood's most memorable romantic moments
picture is worth a thousand words. Especially if it's a screen capture of magical movie moment and Bollywood has a history of many such memorable romantic scenes. With Valentine's Day just around the corner, Doctormasti.com takes its pick of iconic Hindi film images of this nature over the years.
Raj Kapoor and Nargis in Shree 420
The wonderful rush of romance and uncertainty is exquisitely captured in eternal melody, Pyar hua iqrar hua.
A riveting mix of excitement and tension possesses RK and Nargis as they share their anxiety and a lone umbrella in the pouring rain.
The innocence of this imagery is yet another reason why Raj Kapoor's masterful depiction of the eternal conflict between greed and conscience is unforgettable classic.
Dilip Kumar and Madhubala in Mughal-E-Azam
K Asif's historic masterpiece about defiant love is studded with precious memories.
The lyrical passion between Dilip Kumar and Madhubala is for all to see every time the duo comes together to reciprocate their intensely growing affection.
Rishi Kapoor and Dimple Kapadia in Bobby
One naive question (Mujhse dosti karoge?) is all it takes before Chintoo falls hook, line and sinker for his teenaged co-star, Dimple.
Raj Kapoor's entertaining merger of romance and rebellion through the medium of his young and restless leads captured the hearts and imagination of an entire teenybopper generation.
Amitabh Bachchan and Rekha in Silsila
Chemistry thy name is AB and Rekha. It takes an entire field of colourful tulips to compete with the gorgeous aura enveloping the hit jodi of the 70s and 80s. Filmmaker Yash Chopra provides plenty pretty landscapes in the background for the charming twosome in his hyped love quadrangle. But this one, here, made a lasting impression.
Aamir Khan and Juhi Chawla in Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak
While a kiss contributes to the sizzle factor in most movies, Aamir's decision to plant a peck on Juhi draws a heartfelt 'awww' from the viewers of Mansoor Khan's engaging version of Romeo and Juliet.
And while Aamir has graduated to directing a movie and Juhi has grown out of her pigtailed avatars, there's a certain freshness to the QSQT pair which simply refuses to fade.
Salman Khan and Bhagyashree in Maine Pyar Kiya
No amount of rich versus poor tussle can stop Salman and Bhagyashree from expressing their love to each other in Sooraj Barjatya's super duper hit, Maine Pyar Kiya.
Back then when e-mails were still unheard of, a pair of kabootars prove to be best bet for the young lovers.
Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol in Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge
The trademark heroine-in-white, sunny yellow spread of mustard flowers and a super confident hero with a plan, followed by a meaningful embrace, gust of wind and a dream song.
And so when debutant director Aditya Chopa instructed Come...fall in love, the audience was only too happy to oblige with an overwhelming response.
Hrithik Roshan and Kareena Kapoor in Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham
Both Kareena and Hrithik appear more than comfortable flaunting their stunning form in Karan Johar's lavish melodrama, K3G.
If Bebo dared to bare in a red-hot bikini blouse and skin-tight pants, Duggu sported a shimmering bicep showing outfit.
The evident attitude and blistering chemistry between the couple is stuff big screen wonders are made of.
