Looking Back at Fictional Bollywood Hunks, who would be perfect in real life.

When we think about Bollywood heartthrobs, it is usually the actor and not the character that comes to mind. While we would date SRK in a heartbeat, Raj Malhotra from Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge would be a handful to manage.

While toxic masculinity in Bollywood is an ongoing debate, fans do not forget to celebrate those who leave us in awe of the characters. We might be late for Man Crush Monday, but we are here with a perfect list of Bollywood Fictional Men, who would make perfect life partners.

Bollywood has given us some great characters and wonderful couples, but when you think about it, the perfect on-screen boys are often a little toxic. However, that does not mean that Bollywood has never had nice men as filmy characters; they just don’t get the center stage.

1.   Jai Singh Rathore- Jaane Tu Yaan Jaane Na

 

Imran Khan has not failed to keep with the chocolate boy appearance of his Mama- Amir Khan. Imran Khan is a hottie enough on his own, but what makes us love him in this movie is the sweetness, empathy, and the cute boy next door image of Jai Singh Rathore.

He oozed charm and promised to make you fall in love with his fun personality.

1.   Sunny from ‘Dil Dhadakne Do’

What the world needs more of are feminist men and Sunny showed everyone how to do it right in this movie. He was respectful, simple, and straightforward when it came to expressing himself. Pretty hot too.

1.   Iqbal Syed from ‘Raazi’

This whole movie was filmed in a poignant and beautiful manner, so it isn’t a real surprise that we all fell in love with Vicky Kaushal’s character. Iqbal was soft-spoken, sweet, and the perfect gentleman, right to the end. You could see the love in his eyes and that is what we want from our partners as well.

1.   MC Sher from Gully Boy

It was a pleasant surprise when MC Sher didn't torpedo Ranveer Singh’s character for his own benefit. We are so used to seeing selfish acts on-screen, we forget that some people are genuinely nice. On top of everything, Siddhant Chaturvedi’s MC Sher was a hottie as well. That’s a yes in our books.

4. Arjun Burman from ‘Aisha’.

 

Classy, sophisticated, romantic, Abhay Deol was perfect in this movie. He was the quintessential nice boy we all love to love. On top of everything, he was also chivalrous. Love is pretty hard to pin down but if you have a great boy next door, it might just work out—or so we like to dream.

There are many Bollywood characters who are problematic but have a redeeming arc, or others who start off as the ‘perfect boyfriend’ but morph into more sinister characters. It’s all about that perfect balance!
