Bollywood actresses are as picky when it comes to husbands as they are when it comes to choosing movie scripts. Most of them choose to marry industrialists – rich men who are then craftily trained to do their wives bidding. Also, if the man is a divorcee then that simply adds to his credentials. Here is our pick of the hottest Bollywood husbands.
1.Anil Thadani
Raveena Tandon’s better half, Mr. Anil Thadani, is a film distributor. He was married once before and rumours suggest that Raveena is to blame for the fall out of the marriage. We will never know what the truth is, but we do know that Bollywood’s first outspoken diva is basking in the glory of a happily married life.
2. Sriram Nene
He was a renowned cardiovascular surgeon who did not know about Madhuri Dixit’s star status (when they met) and it was (perhaps) this innocent ignorance that charmed Madhuri’s heart. They first met in 1998 on the insistence of her brother and have been blissfully married for over 12 years now.
3. Sanjay Kapur
He is an industrialist from Delhi and she is Bollywood’s first glam doll. When love sparks flew, he was divorced and she was recovering from the aftermath of a failed relationship. Their situation and personal history was conducive for the union and the wedding was a massive affair. They live separately now and have two children together.
4. Raj Kundra
Raj Kundra is a high flying rich businessman from London. This means he has the perfect credentials for being a bollywood husband and that is exactly what he is to Shilpa Shetty. They recently welcomed their first child and are believed to be happy and content.
5. Mahesh Bhupati
He is India’s premier tennis player and she is a Miss Universe who is yet to make a mark in Bollywood. Keeping Bollywood trends in mind, the fact that he was a divorcee worked in Lara’s favour as they married very soon after they started dating. They too welcomed a child into their lives recently and are basking in marriage and baby bliss.
6. Late Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi
In the ‘60s, Mansoor Pataudi and Sharmila Tagore’s love affair was something the media couldn’t get enough of. The union of a cricketer and a Bollywood actress is after all the perfect masala filled news any media agency could ask for! They lived a dignified and private married life and have three children together.
7. Goldie Behl
Goldie is a film maker and is better known as Sonali Bendre’s husband. He comes from a filmy family and that seems to be his only claim to fame till now. He is a bonafide Bollywood husband, what with a beautiful wife by his side and all.
