The song Phoolon ka taaron ka, sab ka kehna hai/Ek hazaaron mein meri behna hai could be old, but it still remains the anthem when it comes to celebrating the bond that is thicker than water. Silly spats followed by friendship and ultimately, togetherness forever... We look at some of the most lovable brother-sister jodis seen on screen.Hrithik Roshan-Karisma Kapoor in Fiza The pain of losing a sibling and the greater pain of discovering that he has lost himself to another cause — the brother-sister duo of this film could well be the one you have lost touch with over time.
Amrita Puri-Sushant Singh in Kai Po Che! If you have a sibling and you haven’t had arguments and fights over silly things, then you probably never had a sibling. This on-screen bro-sis duo gets into endless arguments and fights, just like you did!
Farhan Akhtar-Divya Dutta in Bhaag Milkha Bhaag Elder sister puts up with brutality at the hands of her husband so that little Milkha is not left out on the streets. Milkha reciprocates with respectful fervour. The scene where he gifts her the pair of gold earrings she had sold off for his sake, is heartwarming.
Juhi Chawla-Sanjay Suri in My Brother... Nikhil How many times has the world gone against you but your sibling has stood by like the rock of Gibralter? The unconditionally supportive sister facing society’s mean and ill-informed barbs makes you want to reach out to her.
SRK-Aishwarya in Josh Though this is not a pair we would have liked to see as siblings, but their playful chemistry makes you love them all the more. The doting twins tug at your heartstrings.
Prateik-Genelia D'Souza in Jaane Tu Yaa...Jaane Naa This was one role that endeared Prateik to many. His outward disinterest and poking fun at the sister (who is equally aggressive) while being hugely protective of her, melted the most cynical of hearts.
Kajol-Arbaaz Khan in Pyaar Kiya Toh Darna Kya An over-protective big brother vis-à-vis the obedient sister — although an outdated concept, but the bond only made you wish for a brother as caring as the good-looking but sour brother, Arbaaz.
Aditi Vasudev-Archit Krishna in Do Dooni Chaar Sibling rivalry, anyone? The insults and jives notwithstanding, like in every close-knit family, these two don’t hesitate to protect each other or gang up against the parents, if need be.
