The Colour Of Eternal Romance: Ayushmann And Tahira

The couple that made us believe in love, the verb, not just the noun.

In 2012, the song Paani Da Rang made it to every lovestruck teen’s playlist and the Punjabi munda with a guitar who sung the song in an enrapturing voice, caught every girl’s heart. Ayushmann Khurrana became a Bollywood sensation and a heartthrob overnight after the release of the staggering hit ‘Vicky Donor’. And soon after, half of the Indian female population had their hearts broken, as Google revealed that the dreamboat already had his heart seized by his highschool crush; Tahira Kashyap.

WOOING THE DREAMGIRL

High school is a time in everyone’s life when one finds their pehla-pehla pyaar, but that pure yet phantasmal love rarely anchors into something serious or anything remotely close to what cliché romcoms have hallucinated us into believing. But since the inception of their fair-haired perennial love, Ayushmann and Tahira have proved us time and again that they are not the rule, but an exception.

In India, engineers, doctors, and numerous teen romances are the courtesy of coaching centres and the love story in focus here too found its genesis in the same fashion.
