FROM ON SCREEN TO OFF SCREEN PART 01

For a very long time, I wanted to write an article about the people for whom a scripted romance bloomed into a real one. And I am not talking about the co-stars who just dated each other, no, I am talking about the celebrity couple who fell in love with each other while working together and then later took the big step of tying the nuptial knot. So here is the list of my Favorite on & off screen couples....

P.S. The following compilation only includes Asian stars.

1)  Liu Shi Shi aka Cecilia Liu & Nicky Wu

This beautiful pair met on the set of their super-hit drama series Scarlet Heart/ Bu Bu Jing Xin in the year 2011. Despite of the huge age gap,16 years, their sizzling on screen chemistry bedazzled the viewers completely making them both the most sought after couple by the media. The actress publicly acknowledged her relationship with her then boyfriend Nicky Wu in 2013 and this year,2015 the couple got married in a very private ceremony. It's a second marriage for Nicky Wu, who was earlier married to the fellow Chinese actress Ma Yashu.

2) Ji Sung & Lee Bo Young

These excellent actors worked together in the 2004 TV series Save the last dance for me. The buzz is that the actor (Ji Sung), who prior had a relationship with another of his costar Park Sol mi, was so smitten with Lee Bo Young that he relentlessly pursued the actress for three months before she finally gave in. Their relationship became public in 2007. After getting married in 2013 the couple was blessed with a baby daughter on 12th June 2015.

These days both Jia Nai Lang and their daughter can be seen together in the Chinese variety show 'Dad is back!'

4) Han Ga-in & Yeon Jung-hoon

The actor (Yeon Jung-hoon) was bowled over by the beautiful and shy actress (Han Ga-in) when they started working together in the 2003 drama series Yellow handkerchief. He courted the lady for a couple of months before they officially started dating. The duo got married in 2005. Sadly after suffering a miscarriage for their first pregnancy the couple is still childless.

The real life nawab (urdu word used for a person from nobility), previously divorced actor (Saif Ali Khan) wooed this Bollywood diva (Kareena Kapoor) when they started working together for the movie, Tashan, in the year 2007. At that time Kareena Kapoor, who is 10 years younger than her beau, had just split up with her then boyfriend Shahid Kapoor. The couple opened up about their relationship in 2009. Apparently to show his love for the lady, Saif had got her name tattooed on his arm which was noticed and later turned into a hot topic by their fans.
