Bollywood exes who never worked again after their breakup

From being an ‘IT Couple’ that struck a chord with the audience, making them gush over the little moments - to turning into dust and never working again, every Bollywood ex-couple had their share of heartburn.

Though Bollywood has seen ex-partners getting cosy friends and working together multiple times - but what’s the fun in that! Bollywood is drama - the trash talks, the door smashes, the bitter aftertaste, the unsaid chronicles, and never seeing the ex’s face ever again.

Let’s take a look at our darling Bollywood exes who never worked again after their breakup.

2/7

Salman Khan and Aishwarya Rai

The ‘too good to be true’ love story of Salman Khan and Aishwarya Rai will be heard for ages. The embodiment of soulmates, met on the film set of ‘Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam,’ and they indeed did. The ex-couple allegedly split apart due to differences and the concerns of violence, alcoholism, and extreme obsession.

Even after a couple of decades, the iconic duo has not worked together.

3/7

Abhishek Bachchan and Karisma Kapoor

The mystical romance between Abhishek Bachchan and Karisma Kapoor caused a whirlwind after they announced their engagement on Amitabh Bachchan’s 60th birthday. However, the families cut their ties after differences due to an alleged pre-nuptial agreement and the tension regarding the pair’s future.

The ex-couple worked together in ‘Haan…Maine Bhi Pyaar Kiya’ and have not worked together ever since.

4/7

Hrithik Roshan and Kangana Ranaut

Oh, the drama!

Hrithik Roshan and Kangana Ranaut allegedly had an illicit affair while shooting ‘Krrish 3.’ However, the love turned acidic when an alleged certain project was discarded, leading to legal notices and courtroom shenanigans.

While the tweets were made to dismiss speculations, the controversy escalated after the taunts were publicly stated during interviews. Not only did the couple refuse to work together, but the bitter aftertaste is still not entirely gone.

5/7

John Abraham and Bipasha Basu

Bollywood was not ready for something so steamy - John Abraham and Bipasha Basu. Fame and success were knocking on the door after the couple’s on-screen pairing caused a stir. The ex-twinflames split apart after nine years of dating due to the involvement of an alleged infidelity and commitment issues.

Abraham and Basu were smitten with each other on the film sets of ‘Jism.’ However, after the break-up, the duo seems to be dwelling in the miserable past as they haven’t publicly addressed each other either.

According to the reports, while Bipasha had a special appearance in ‘Race 2,’ they managed to film without bumping into each other.

6/7

Vivek Oberoi and Aishwarya Rai

The ‘cause and effect’ relationship is better understood with example, and it's - Vivek Oberoi and Aishwarya Rai. The ex-partners allegedly fell in love in the early 2000s, after the fallout of Salman and Aishawarya. However, the relationship was directly affected by Khan’s public threats to Vivek due to his association with his ‘ex-love.’

Not only did the feud have an impact on the relationships, but the careers were destroyed as well. Oberoi and Rai last appeared in ‘Kyun! Ho Gaya Na…,’ and were never spotted together.

7/7

Akshay Kumar and Shilpa Shetty

If Bollywood had ‘Brangelina,’ it would be Akshay Kumar and Shilpa Shetty. The speculations whisper that Kumar cheated on Raveena Tandon and started dating Shilpa Shetty - only to marry Bollywood’s wordsmith, Twinkle Khanna.

Akshay and Shilpa were renowned to be the iconic couple of the 90s. They were head over heels in love during the filming of ‘Main Khiladi Tu Anari.’ However, the public heartbreak caused a deep heartache, and they never worked again after being featured in ‘Dhadkan.’
