Even though a number of movies popularized the idea of ek ladka aur ek ladki kabhi dost nahi ho sakte, there is a fair share of examples from movies that prove otherwise. We have seen some brilliant on-screen pairs who made us crave a BFF from the opposite gender.
And today, we stumbled upon a wholesome Reddit thread where people revealed the most iconic on-screen male-female friendships from Bollywood movies. Read on.
1. “Piku and Rana.”
