Shah Rukh Khan has been dutifully maintaining his tag of romantic actors in the Bollywood industry. The way he just spreads his arms and his dimpled smile can still make actresses go weak on their knees. Fans wait to see Shah Rukh romance on the big screens. But his off-screen romance stories have also kept people hooked. We had been hearing of the romance that ignited between him and Priyanka Chopra a few years back.

There were strong rumours suggesting the sparks flying between the two on the sets of Don 2! But what couldn’t get more embarrassing was when Shah Rukh proposed the lady on National television at an awards show. In 2010, during the NDTV Indian of The Year Award, Shah Rukh sang for Priyanka Chopra and she could not stop blushing!

Everyone was left wide-eyed when the light moment almost took an embarrassing turn when Shah Rukh went on becoming cheesier with Priyanka. He took the mic and complimented her singing skills. He then started singing the song, ‘Marry Me,’ and asked her to reply with a song. Priyanka, astounded did not know how to react and chose to just give a laugh. But that wasn’t all. Shah Rukh then went on and gave a kiss too!

Now a flabbergasted Priyanka just had to ask him to stop as they were in front of an audience nationwide. It was thought to be a very light moment in the award ceremony. But of course, given the admiration between the two, it only strengthened the doubts about their affair. Plus, on a scale like this, it served as a confirmation.

Shah Rukh and Priyanka were co-stars in Farhan Akhtar’s remake Don 2. The sets of this action-thriller indeed turned into a romance among the leads! Who would have thought the actor would come out singing in the open about it?
