when i saw the title of the thread the first onscreen pairing i thought of is bunny and naina and they are on this list 😆

(from the article)

I still can’t sleep at night when I think about the fake happily-ever-after from this film. It was all done and dusted, and understood: Naina (Deepika Padukone) is an introverted doctor who realizes that Kabir (Ranbir Kapoor) is too much of a free bird to buckle down, and Kabir is a restless travel-show cinematographer with a dream job and unresolved daddy issues. Kabir can’t possibly just show up at her place and convince her it’s all fine and dandy. From experience, I can tell you: That’s not how it works.

Three days into the lockdown at home, and she’d notice that Kabir is a relapsed drug addict who can’t stay still in one space. He’s bouncing off the walls. He wants to get on the next plane out. He insists on coming to the hospital with her for her double-shifts because he needs “fresh air”. I can imagine Naina tearing up as she treats suspected Covid-19 patients, because Kabir is restrained by the staff and sent into the isolation ward for 14 days. Once he’s released, he escapes into the wild – never to be seen again.
