SRK-Kajol,  Rekha-Amitabh, Anil-Madhuri, Karishma-Govinda, and Amir-Juhi are some of our all-time favourite onscreen jodis. Some of these onscreen couples turned even the simplest of stories into some epic love saga. But unlike 90s films, now Bollywood is going all experimental!  Over the years, there is a change in a pattern of casting the lead couples, as now the filmmakers try to come up with some new and unusual onscreen jodis.

In recent times, we saw many unusual pairings in Bollywood such as Kareena and Arjun in Ki Aur Ka, Irrfan and Deepika in Piku, Ranbir and Aishwarya Rai in Ae Dil Hai Mushkil which were also appreciated by the masses. As a result, we get to see many other new onscreen pairs in 2018 as well. This year moviegoers will witness many new onscreen pairs who will team up for the first time on the big screen.

Here are the 22 fresh onscreen Jodis which will you get to see in 2018

1. Jhanvi Kapoor and  Ishaan Khattar (Dhadak)

We all are eager to watch Sridevi’s daughter Jhanvi Kapoor paired opposite Shahid Kapoor’s brother Ishaan Khattar in their Bollywood debut titled as Dhadak. This romantic drama is a remake of  2016 Marathi film Sairat. The film is produced by none other than Karan Johar and helmed by Badrinath Ki Dulhania director  Shashank Khaitan. As the original film, Sairat was a critically acclaimed and also a box-office hit now it will be interesting to see how this new Jodi match the level of original love story.
