Breakups in Bollywood are often dramatic, but some celebrity couples prove that relationships don’t have to end on a bitter note. Tamannaah Bhatia and Vijay Varma recently joined the list of exes who have chosen to stay friends despite parting ways. While their romance may have ended, their mutual respect and bond remain intact.
Many other Bollywood stars have also handled breakups with grace, proving that it’s possible to move on while maintaining a healthy friendship. Here’s a look at some of the most amicable celebrity breakups in Bollywood.
1. Deepika Padukone and Ranbir Kapoor
Once Bollywood’s golden couple, Deepika and Ranbir had a high-profile breakup in 2009. Despite their split, the two eventually rebuilt their friendship and even worked together in Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani (2013) and Tamasha (2015). Their camaraderie remains strong, with Deepika attending Ranbir’s wedding to Alia Bhatt in 2022.
2. Hrithik Roshan and Sussanne Khan
After 14 years of marriage, Hrithik and Sussanne announced their divorce in 2014. However, they continue to co-parent their children and are often seen vacationing and celebrating festivals together. Their ability to maintain a cordial relationship despite ending their marriage has been widely appreciated.
3. Ananya Panday and Aditya Roy Kapur
One of Bollywood’s most recent breakups, Ananya and Aditya reportedly called it quits in early 2024. However, sources close to the duo suggest that they continue to remain friendly. They haven’t publicly commented on their split, but their respectful silence speaks volumes about their maturity.
4. Katrina Kaif and Salman Khan
While their romantic relationship didn’t last, Katrina and Salman have remained one of Bollywood’s most iconic duos. They have continued to collaborate professionally in films like Tiger 3 and have often praised each other in interviews.
5. Malaika Arora and Arbaaz Khan
After nearly two decades of marriage, Malaika and Arbaaz separated in 2017. Despite moving on in their personal lives, they continue to co-parent their son, Arhaan, and are often spotted together at family gatherings. Their ability to stay cordial has been an example for many.
Tamannaah and Vijay’s breakup may have disappointed their fans, but they are not the only Bollywood exes to maintain a strong friendship post-split.
