Bollywood films where older actresses romanced younger actors

Bipasha Basu – Rana Daggubati

Rana Daggubati and Bipasha Basu were paired in the thriller 'Dum Maro Dum'. They played each other's love-interest in the film and everything was so full of soul that we never felt a mismatch.

Konkona Sen Sharma – Ranbir Kapoor

Konkona Sen Sharma and Ranbir Kapoor came together in Ayan Mukerji's 'Wake Up Sid'. We need not say more about the film, do we?

Rekha – Akshay Kumar

Rekha and Akshay Kumar. Very, very out-of-the-box, right? We are talking about 'Khiladiyon Ka Khiladi'. They absolutely set the screen on fire.

Vidya Balan – Emraan Hashmi

'The Dirty Picture', 'Ghanchakkar', 'Hamari Adhuri Kahani'. They came together thrice, in three different genres; and never disappointed us.

Kareena Kapoor – Imran Khan

They've appeared together twice; in 'Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu' and 'Gori Tere Pyaar Mein'. None of the films were great commercial success but their flamboyant chemistry was loved.

Rani Mukerji – Shahid Kapoor

Rani Mukerji is noticeably senior to Shahid Kapoor in every aspect; age, experience, number of films, time spent in the industry. In a usual instance, their pairing would probably seem inappropriate. However, Anurag Singh's 'Dil Bole Hadippa' managed to make them look great together!

Nargis Fakhri – Varun Dhawan

David Dhawan's 'Main Tera Hero' was a romantic action comedy and also a kind of love triangle. It also starred Ileana D'Cruz in the lead.

Vidya Balan – Shahid Kapoor

Vidya Balan and Shahid Kapoor in 'Kismat Konnection' played a couple where Vidya is a lucky charm for Shahid Kapoor.

Shilpa Shukla – Shadab Kamal

Ajay Bahl's 'BA Pass' was based on Mohan Sikka's 'The Railway Aunty' where a younger man indulges himself into an intimate relationship with an elderly woman who happens to be his neighbour. The film was a huge critical success.

Priyanka Chopra – Arjun Kapoor-Ranveer Singh

Ali Abbas Zafar's 'Gunday' was an action-thriller, featuring Arjun Kapoor, Ranveer Singh and Priyanka Chopra. Both Arjun and Ranveer are not only younger than Priyanka in terms of age, but also in terms of their work-span and experience in the industry.

Nargis Fakhri – Ranbir Kapoor

Imtiaz Ali's 'Rockstar' is a love story with a tragic end and is considered to be one of Ali's best films so far. It featured Nargis Fakhri and Ranbir Kapoor in the lead.

Kareena Kapoor Khan – Arjun Kapoor

R Balki's 'Ki & Ka' featured Arjun and Kareena together for the first time. The romantic gender-bender tells a story where a married couple has swapped their responsibilities and are going against the societal norms and forced gender roles.
