On Aanand L Rai's Birthday, A Look At Love Triangles In His Films

Raanjhanaa starred Dhanush, Sonam Kapoor and Abhay Deol was a heartland love story

Love triangle between a Muslim girl, a Brahmin man and Sikh man (Abhay) was one of a kind

Tanu Weds Manu starring Kangana Ranaut and R Madhavan, another Aanand L Rai movie involving a love triangle

Jimmy Shergill played the ex-boyfriend to Kangana's character

Tanu Weds Manu Returns saw Kangana, Madhavan and Jimmy Shergill reprise their roles in the love triangle film

However, the welcome addition to this love triangle was Kangana's alter ego, a young Haryanvi college student

Kangana as Kusum in Tanu Weds Manu Returns is one of her most popular performances

In 2018, Shah Rukh Khan, Anushka Sharma and Katrina Kaif reunited for a quirky love story 'Zero'

The key highlight was Katrina as a superstar in the film, a welcome deviation from their 'Jab Tak Hai Jaan' triangle
