#1. Deepika Padukone - Yuvraj Singh - Kim Sharma


Yuvi has always known to be a charmer amongst ladies. Even Bollywood beauties like Kim Sharma and Deepika Padukone could not help, but fall to his lovely ways. While Yuvraj was maintaining his ‘just good friends’ stance, one could simply not ignore his great chemistry with these actresses. While his relationship with Kim was steady and long (sadly it did not go anywhere), with Deepika it was fairly short-lived. However, the sizzle in the both love stories fizzled out. And today, Deepika is happy in the company of her ‘lucky boy’ Ranveer Singh, while Kim is happily married and settled in Kenya.

#2. Geeta Basra - Harbhajan Singh


This couple has always remained tight-lipped about their relationship (for reasons only known to them), but the media always managed to capture this close friendship in one frame. Of late, there have been no hints from the couple about their relationship or marriage prospects. The gossip mills have too gone cold on their affair as there seems to be no update about the couple.


#3. Isha Sharvani - Zaheer Khan


Considered to be one of the steadiest romances of the ‘cricket pitch-tinsel town’ alliance, this 8-year-long relationship too faced its share of ups and downs. People around the couple kind of took it for granted that tying the knot would be the next logical step for them. So, it came as a shock when the duo announced that they are not getting married, but are separating instead! It has been a year since they parted ways, but both of them have not been reported to be dating anyone else till date. Here is wishing them to be together again!

Even though Neena and Vivian never tied the knot, they maintained a serious relationship for the brief period of time that they were together. And, next came the news of the birth of their daughter Masaba, who stays with her mom.


#5. Amrita Singh - Ravi Shastri


Thanks to his cricketing strokes doing good on the pitch and dashing looks, Ravi was already a darling amongst the masses. Bollywood actress Amrita too was slowly finding her foothold in the film industry during the late 80’s. They painted the town red when they candidly confessed their feelings for each other in front of the camera. But unfortunately, their romance was short-lived, when Ravi married Ritu in 1990, and a few years later Amrita got married to actor Saif Ali Khan.
