Surprisingly hard decision time! For a year with limited romance releases, there were a shockingly large number of good couples onscreen, from old stalwarts Kat-Salman and Juhi-Anil to newcomers Alia-Ranveer and Tiger-Hrithik.
Ek Ladki Ko Dekha To Aisa Laga-Juhi Chawla and Anil Kapoor
Adorable love at first sight made for each other couple, she gets him out of his comfort zone, he gives her age inappropriate clothing and enjoys her pizzazz and glamour. Oh, and they are both single parents of grown children, taking a chance at happiness for themselves now that they have raised their children. SO CUTE!!!
Gully Boy-Alia Bhatt and Ranveer Singh
A childhood sweethearts story, but a different one. She is ambitious and smart and going to be a doctor, and also insanely jealous of her lower class driver boyfriend. He is unnoticed except by her, quick to have his head turned by the first other girl who seems to like him, sensitive and reserved. SO CUTE!!!
Bharat-Katrina Kaif and Salman Khan
A nice sloooooooooooow romance, maybe the slowest ever. They meet and like each other, she is his boss for 5 years as they slowly come to respect and know each other a little better, she finally admits her love and he turns her down, months later she shows up on his doorstep offering an alternative way for them to be together, for years they live together without marriage and negotiate their relationship and make a choice every day to be together, and then finally in their 60s they get married. SO CUTE!!!
War-Tiger Shroff and Hrithik Roshan
Star crossed lovers! Tiger falls in love at first sight but Hrithik isn’t sure he can trust the son of his enemy. But his feelings are too strong to ignore, in the end Tiger wins him over. And while Tiger’s love burns bright and dies, Hrithik’s is the kind of strong and enduring passion that will never burn out all the way. SO CUTE!!!
Okay, here’s the challenge Which is the Best Couple of the Year?
dontcallitbollywood 
1. Tiger & Hrithik 4ever
2. Salman & Katrina (also biggest surprise since she was cast at the last minute)
3. Anil & Juhi (though it was close to being a tie for #2)
4. Ranveer & Alia (again, I know I’m in the minority on this one but I didn’t find her lying and beating up her rival to be cute at all. I grew up with girls like that and they terrified me.)

I feel like in terms of long term healthy companionship, Salman and Kat would probably beat Hrithik-Tiger. But in terms of magical once in a lifetime love, Hrithik-Tiger all the way.

You know I am a card-carrying member Tiger-Hrithik 4-eva club that Alisa is the President of, but for this one, I have to vote for Salman-Katrina! It was the most mature, two-sided, respectful, and “realistic” romance I have seen in a movie in 2019. . . and completely unexpected.

I really enjoyed how the film kept swinging back to Salman-Kat negotiating their relationship, not just a “happy ending” fix where the relationship never has problems again. The fight when he took the job on the tanker, the discussions between them around the hunt for his father, right up to the end when they decide to get married.

I vote for Salman and Kat in Bharat.
But my personal fav is the badly written couple from D/O Parvathamma. She is a tough police inspector, he is a gentle confectioner. She falls in love with him because he is nice and gives food to the poor and homeless. Without wasting time she orders a cake so he can deliver it at her house where her mom is waiting with a proposal for him (he doesn’t even know the girl at that time). The movie is bad and very rushed, but I would love to see this couple in some other, better movie.

Finally Salman-Kat get some love!
If you are talking rushed couples, why not Khandaani Shafakhani?

I was thinking about KS! Sonakshi and Priyansh are at 2nd place and not first because there was so little of them together in the movie. I hardly remember their story now, few months after seeing the movie. D/O Parvathamma couple instead is the only thing I remember.

I really liked Ranveer and Alia in Gully Boy! But now that I’ve started watching Bharat, the relationship in that is really cute as well. I think my vote still goes to Gully Boy.

The Bharat relationship just gets better and better as the film goes on. There is a slight chance you will change your vote once you finish.

If you follow this blog and don’t vote for Hrithik and Tiger as the best couple of the year, something might be wrong. But I also loved Ranveer and Alia. I’m only looking forward to Takht just because we get to see more of them together.
