10 celebrity couples whose PDA will restore your faith in love
From Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh’s viral on-stage kiss to Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma’s record-breaking selfies, here’s proof that Cupid does exist

Given that their lives are almost entirely spent in the limelight, it comes as no surprise that the world’s most famous celebrity couples are especially protective of their love lives. But lately, many have opened up about their relationships to the point of indulging in Bollywood-level PDA. While newlyweds Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh shared a sweet kiss at a recent awards function, Shah Rukh Khan can still often be spotted gushing over his wife, Gauri Khan, even after 17 years of marriage. Always on the go, Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas like to dial up the virtual love every once in a while as well. Need a little reminder that love is what it’s all about? Here’s a look at some of your favourite celebrity couples’ cutest PDA moments.
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan
Abhishek Bachchan’s secret to wooing one of the most beautiful women in the world involves the simple, yet oft-forgotten art of routinely appreciating her. On the eve of his daughter Aaradhya Bachchan’s recent birthday, the actor acknowledged his wife’s efforts with an Instagram post that read, “A child’s birthday cannot be complete without appreciating her mother. For giving birth to her, for loving her, taking care of her and basically just being a Wonder Woman! To the Mrs, thank you for giving me the greatest gift ever… our daughter!” His wife, meanwhile, reciprocated the gesture in her own way by sharing cosy couple pictures on her Instagram, choosing to let a string of emojis do all the talking for her.
Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh
This duo may have tried to keep their relationship under wraps for their first few years of dating, but their frequent moments of PDA served as a dead giveaway. You won’t need to reach too far into your memory to remember the visual of Singh serenading Padukone outside a party with a yellow rose. After making things official with several star-studded wedding parties last year, the couple hasn’t held back. Singh’s performance in Padmaavat earned him the Critics Award For Best Actor at a recent ceremony, with his proud wife handing over the trophy with a kiss.
Sonam Kapoor Ahuja and Anand Ahuja
After successfully managing to keep their relationship away from the public eye, this young couple seems to now be making up for lost time. Further proof to that end can be found with a quick scroll through their Instagram handles—from getaways spent exploring the wonders of Los Angeles to their joint appreciation of edgy sneakers, they clearly have lots in common. Post their summer wedding last year, Ahuja has been gunning for the ‘Husband of the Year’ title, changing his name to ‘Anand S Ahuja’ and hyping his wife on Instagram. “Every week you do something that just outdoes what you did the week before!” he raved in a recent post. Did you miss this especially cute picture of the two on holiday recently?
Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli
Their wedding in Italy may have been hush-hush, but these days, #Virushka loves giving their collective 56 million Instagram followers regular peeks into their charmed life together. While star cricketer Kohli breaks records on the pitch, his wife is busy creating new ones on celluloid. Kohli is known to take to the social media platform to talk about the positivity Sharma brings to his life. “The person that inspires me to push forward despite all obstacles. The person that guides me to do the right thing in life against all odds. The person that has changed me inside out and made me realise the power of true love. My strength. My soulmate,” he proudly stated in an Instagram post. You’ll often see these two exploring new cities hand-in-hand, and soaking up some sun while lying in each other’s arms during their travels.
Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas
After their paths crossed at an award show after-party, Nick Jonas wasted no time in wooing Priyanka Chopra. Not quite ready to make things official right away, the duo left a trail of breadcrumbs in the form of flirty Instagram comments (remember when Jonas commented, “That smile” on a photo of Chopra at her favourite burger joint?). They ultimately held a grand celebration of their love in Jodhpur with multiple ceremonies last year, and Chopra made things Insta-official by changing her name to Priyanka Chopra Jonas. Ever since, the newlyweds have been packing on the virtual PDA. Whether they’re sharing a kiss in front of the Mercedes Maybach Jonas just bought his wife. or walking hand-in-hand on the streets of Miami, this couple looks picture-perfect all the way. Friendly reminder: Get yourself a guy who will toast your successes and look at you like this while you have your moment in the spotlight.
Gauri Khan and Shah Rukh Khan
With a filmy love story that played out like one of his on-screen romances, it stands to reason that 17 years have done little to dull the spark in Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan’s marriage. The couple set the stage on fire with their performance on the popular track, ‘Dilli Wali Girlfriend’ at Isha Ambani and Anand Piramal’s wedding, proving that sometimes, chemistry just grows with time. The little tidbits of affection continued on social media during their recent Spanish vacation, with Shah Rukh sharing one of their rare selfies together; “After years the wife has allowed me to post a pic I have taken… she’s all heart!” read the caption.

Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas
After Nick Jonas tied the knot with Priyanka Chopra, all eyes are on Joe Jonas, who seems as in love with fiancée Sophie Turner today as he was when the duo first got together. Having met through Instagram DMs when Jonas messaged the Game of Thrones star out of the blue, the two have been setting relationship goals ever since they started dating. Their PDA isn’t what you’re used to. Turner and Jonas have stepped out sporting matching nail paint in the past, and have also sealed their love for one another with matching tattoos. In case you missed it, these two got inked in October 2018 with Toy Story-themed tattoos that come together to spell out ‘To infinity and beyond’. Doesn’t get cuter than this.
Kareena Kapoor Khan and Saif Ali Khan
You won’t find them gushing over each other on social media, but Saifeena has never shied away from being vocal about their love. At a recent panel, Kapoor Khan spoke about her husband’s unwavering support in the challenging period post the birth of their son, Taimur Ali Khan; “I’d really like to thank Saif. I was extremely exhausted after childbirth. The first thing is you want to put your child on your chest to give warmth to the child. With my eyes half-shut, I would say, ‘Saif, put Taimur on your chest. Give him that kangaroo love’.” In front of the camera, the duo present a stately image befitting his royal lineage, often picking coordinated his-and-hers outfits. Case in point: Isha Ambani and Anand Piramal’s wedding had the couple stepping out in matching ivory looks—an embellished Anita Dongre lehenga for her, and a high-collared sherwani for him. This picture proves that sometimes, eye contact is enough PDA.
Mira Rajput Kapoor and Shahid Kapoor
Though this couple likes to insist that they lead a normal life, their love for each other takes every day from basic to beautiful. Shahid Kapoor and Mira Rajput Kapoor met through their parents before tying the knot in Delhi in 2015, and in just four short years, their family has grown by two. The duo first welcomed an adorable baby girl, Misha, and celebrated the birth of their son, Zain, seven months ago. Today, the happy family serves up a picture-perfect portrait on Instagram, merrily navigating the maze of parenting with grocery runs and gym dates while still finding time for mushy selfies. Those searching for proof of love need look no further than the actor’s 38th birthday, which had his wife posting an adorable selfie on Instagram with the caption: “Thank you for being the most loving husband and friend, for loving me through all my stages and sizes, for spoiling our babies silly with unconditional love and attention, for making sure you remain silly so we can all laugh till our stomachs hurt, for picking me up when I’m down and for tipping me over when you’re looking to make a joke. To the most hardworking, humble and resilient soul. For the one who has so much love to give, I pray God blesses you with even more.”
Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez
After dating for two years, former baseball player Alex Rodriguez popped the question to Jennifer Lopez recently during an intimate getaway, and the proposal took over the internet like wild fire. Whether they’re on a red carpet or the sets of her upcoming movie, Hustlers, the two can’t seem to keep their hands off each other. Follow the bride- and groom-to-be on Instagram, and you’ll notice there’s no dearth of kisses and hugs in their world.
