And our very own heartthrob Ranbir Kapoor is no different. From falling in love in-the-blink-of-an-eye to breaking-up at-the-drop-of-a-hat, Ranbir Kapoor has been there, done it.

However, the Kapoor son's love-life seems to have come a full circle with the latest news of his relationship with Alia Bhatt. Confused? Take a look.

Aishwarya Rai and Salman Khan

Before Aishwarya got married to Abhishek Bachchan, the news of her proximity with Salman Khan became the talk of the town. However, due to Salman's bad temper, it didn't take the love-story too long to turn into a tale of abuse and hurt. After a huge showdown, the couple parted ways.

Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif

The reason behind some of Katrina Kaif's biggest hits can undoubtedly be attributed to Salman Khan's penchant for the actress. From recommending her name to directors, proclaiming her as the new star to being madly-in-love with her, Salman did everything he could to keep the relationship going. But, his temperament soon came into the way and the duo parted ways again.

Katrina and Alia Bhatt were the BFFs the industry vouched for before the news of Alia dating Ranbir made to the front page. The power-house performers got along like a house-on-fire and even appeared on shows together. Even though nothing can now be said for sure, but, it appears that their friendship isn't the same ever since Alia's growing fondness for the Kapoor lad.
