FAMOUS LIP LOCKS OF BOLLYWOOD

From demure to daring, the liplock has been through various avatars in Bollywood history. Here are some that blazed a trail on the silver screen, setting fire to hearts, souls and…err…everything else…

The John-Bipasha kiss in Jism is proof of the couple's on and off-screen chemistry. A romance was brewing between the two at the time they shot these intimate scenes, and that heat translated onto celluloid with great ease!

This smooch between Saif Ali Khan and Preity Zinta was quite hot, considering their last one in the movieKya Kehna was totally thanda. Guess the two upped their sex-quotient quite a bit before working on this film.

The Kareena Kapoor-Shahid Kapoor kiss from Jab We Met created a furor mainly because the couple had split by the time the film reached the theatres. In this one, the romantic and passionate kiss comes in the last scene as the climax of the love story. The kiss became monumental because the audiences were witnessing the last dying moments of the Shahid-Kareena relationship.

The smooch sequence between Ranveer Singh and Anushka Sharma was an elaborate but natural kiss. The chemistry and comfort level between the two was obvious. It seems the actors were following the director’s step-by-step instructions to get it right and we must say they managed to portray several emotions— fear, attraction and love— all at the same time.

In Sudhir Mishra’s Yeh Saali Zindagi, Aditi Rao and Arunoday Singh had a quite a few kissing scenes and, surprisingly but somehow logically, Singh kissed Rao each time he wanted to shut her up. Now that’s a unique way to kiss and tell!

Mallika Sherawat indulged in 17 kisses with co-star Himanshu Malik in Khwaish — which was the only thing that made this dud bearable.

Arshad Warsi and Vidya Balan in Ishqiya created one of the raunchiest kisses ever! The chemistry between the two was electric and that’s what puts this lip-lock amidst the list of best onscreen kisses.

Murder is where it all began for 'serial kisser' Emraan Hashmi. This hot kiss with Mallika Sherawat, apart from some make-out scenes, made the movie a seller. There was no looking back for Hashmi after that, as he went on to kiss almost co-star he worked with, including Soha Ali Khan, Udita Goswami and Kangna Ranaut. 

Aamir Khan’s (the actor is known for kissing in almost every film) most recent kiss with Kareena Kapoor in 3 Idiots was quite cute, and it came 15 years after his sensational long smooching scene with Bebo's elder sister Karisma.
