Kartik Aaryan-Sara Ali Khan to Ishaan Khatter-Ananya Panday: Bollywood actors romancing actresses their age

When it comes to love, age is certainly no bar, but as far as big-screen love-stories are concerned, Bollywood is slowly bridging the gap. At a time when superstars like Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar are romancing actresses half their age, the young, hot and restless bunch of actors are preferring to share the screen with someone their age. With ageism and sexism now becoming a trending topic in the industry, let's take a look at actors romancing actresses their age.

Sara Ali Khan is the new kid on the block and she is picking her films wisely. Two hit films down and many more to go, this 24-year-old has fans obsessing over her and her love life, thanks to the multiple link-up rumours with her hunky co-stars almost the same age as her. The starlet will soon be seen sharing the screen with her 28-year-old boyfriend Kartik Aaryan in Imtiaz Ali‘s romantic drama ‘Aaj Kal’. With all the hype surrounding their romance that spilled off-screen, we can’t wait to see what they bring to the big screen.

All of 23, Ishaan Khatter made a splash at the box office with his Bollywood debut with 'Dhadak' and is now set to spice things up a bit on the big screen when he romances 20-year-old Ananya Panday in 'Khaali Peeli'. The first look images of the film seemed to have done enough to command the fans' undivided attention.

Varun Dhawan and Shraddha Kapoor will share the screen for the second time in 'Street Dancer 3D', directed by Remo D'Souza. The hunk, who is 32, has always had fans raving over his on-screen pairings and we can only wonder if it has something to do with their minimal age differences. The actor will be seen working his magic with Shraddha, who is as old as him, in the upcoming dance flick that hits theatres in 2020.

Ever since Kartik Aaryan stepped it up on the big screen, he has been paired up on-screen with a slew of new faces, most of whom are almost his age. The next starlet the actor will be romancing is 22-year-old Janhvi Kapoor, who will star in the romantic-comedy, 'Dostana 2'.

Bhumi Pednekar has had her fair share of on-screen pair-ups in Bollywood over the year, and interestingly, she too has starrer alongside actors who are in her age group, with 52-year-old Akshay Kumar being the only exception thus far. The actress will soon be seen sharing the screen with Vicky Kaushal who is just a year older than her, in the upcoming horror film 'Bhoot Part 1- The Haunted Ship'.
