We’ve observed many actresses and entertainers within the industry beginning to develop feelings for one another after they start working together. This is a direct result of the on-screen bond that they develop during the filming of their movie. However, when the shoot is finished, actors often spend more time in the company of their director to get an idea on how they performed so far or how to improve their performance. Lengthy hours of work and unlimited cups of espressos are shared by both directors and their lead actors. In this way, it is normal for them to start developing feelings for one another. Here is a list of acclaimed divas from Bollywood who fell head over heels for their director and wedded them:

1. Kalki Koechlin And Anurag Kashyap

Anurag went gaga over French-Indo beauty, Kalki Koechlin, while they were shooting their motion picture, Dev D. At the time, Anurag was still married to the mother of his daughter and long time partner, Aarti Bajaj. The director later separated from his wife. He was hopelessly in love with the actress at the time. Kalki understood this reality after he took extra efforts to make it to all her shows and express his support for her. The two began dating and lived together for a long time before finally tying the knot in April of 2011. Sadly, the pair divorced in the year 2015. Nonetheless, Kalki and Anurag have high regard for each other. The director admitted to how grateful he was to Kalki for changing his life and making him a better person. He stated that he respects her for who she is and that their marriage came to an end because of the problem that lay with him. The Gangs of Wasseypur director admitted that his breakup with Kalki was one of the biggest losses he faced in his life.

2. Aditya Chopra And Rani Mukherjee

The two were in a relationship for a long period of time and it was obvious to the entire industry and their fans that they were enamored.
