2016 was the year of break-ups. Marriages and relationships that we thought were for keeps, came apart at the seams. Hopefully, in 2017, we should see more couples coming together rather than drifting apart.
Sonakshi Sinha and Bunty Sajdeh
Relationship status: Insiders insist that Sonakshi is smitten and would love to settle down. But the boy she loves is sort of an eternal bachelor. He has dated many actresses and all of them moved on because he didn’t want to commit. However, he seems quite taken in by Sonakshi, and their families know that they are serious about each other.
Marrying or not? It’s a matter of time. Sona doesn’t believe in casual flings. She is into relationships and is fully committed when she is in one. She doesn’t have too many films on hand and it is a good time as any to tie the knot. Why wait when you are so in love, no?
Sonam Kapoor and Anand Ahuja
Relationship status: The actress who has never spoken about her relationships is not going to confirm or deny that she is dating Delhi boy Anand Ahuja any time soon. But actions speak louder than words. He was with her family on their London vacation on New Year’s Eve. Looks like the family has already given their blessings.
Marrying or not? It’s a 50-50 shot! The 31-year-old actress is serious about the boy and career is as important to her as family. Her father Anil Kapoor also married at the start of his career and he won’t deter his daughter from doing so. It’s only a matter of time before they get hitched.
Alia Bhatt and Sidharth Malhotra
Relationship status: For all practical purposes, it seems these two ‘in love’ people are on the verge of drifting apart. They are young. They are driven. They would rather explore the world than be tied down to one relationship.
Marrying or not? Not.
Varun Dhawan and Natasha Dalal
Relationship status: So far, Varun Dhawan has desisted from even acknowledging his girlfriend. Or even her existence. Until recently. But things are changing and we can’t help wondering if he is easing up because he is finally ready to settle done.
Marrying or not? Very strong probability. On Koffee With Karan, he admitted to being in a relationship. Next, pictures of him and Natasha holidaying in London were splashed everywhere with his blessings. And then, when he returned to Mumbai, the Dhawan family went for dinner with Natasha in tow to a restaurant notorious for being a paparazzi haunt.
Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli
Relationship Status: This couple has to deal with two sets of frenzied fans and the hostilities thereof. While Virat is not seen to be as invasive in Anushka’s career, her presence during his matches has been openly criticised and viciously trolled. In fact, last year, this handsome couple decided to call it quits. But better sense prevailed and the duo is back together. They are very serious about each other.
Marrying or not? Fifty-fifty chances, according to friends from the cricketing world. Apparently, Mr Kohli wants to say ‘I do’ but with her career doing exceptionally well, why would she give it all up... even for love? And they have just denied it on social media. But then, so did Vidya Balan, a week before her marriage.
Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone
Relationship status: Their relationship is rock-solid, careless whispers of differences and a rift notwithstanding. Ranveer, say friends, is “madly, deliriously in love.” So’s Deepika, but she is not demonstrative. That’s a problem. Ranveer wears his heart on his sleeve. And, there is the big issue of time management. Singh and Padukone seldom got together time in 2016. For a major part of the year, he was shooting in Paris with Aditya Chopra and she was shooting with Vin Diesel.
Marrying or not? Mutual friends say, chances are fair to high. Ranveer’s family adores Deepika and Deepika’s parents and sister dote on Ranveer. If left to Ranveer, he would drop everything and marry DP. But she has her career. She is No 1. It takes a heart of steel to tinker with that level of stardom.
Salman Khan and Iulia Vantur
Relationship status: They’re happy in each other’s company. No one knows how serious they are about each other. They don’t seem to be concerned about marriage rumours. Close friends say Salman is not looking to settle down.
Marrying or not? Chances of that happening are vague to uncertain.
