It has the innate ability to turn odds into even and make sweet look sexy. Before you know it, the screen is blazing with a palpable connection between its two lead players. And history is made.

Over the years, Bollywood has witnessed memorable pairs on screen like Raj Kapoor-Nargis, Dilip Kumar-Madhubala, Amitabh Bachchan-Rekha, Rishi Kapoor-Neetu Singh, Anil Kapoor-Madhuri Dixit and Shah Rukh Khan-Kajol, to name a few. Currently, with hits like Namastey London, Welcome and Singh Is Kinng under their belt; Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif, too, are hoping to find a place in this enviable category.

While these afore-mentioned pairs are immensely popular, there are quite a few potential hit jodis waiting in the wings to make a similar impact on the viewer. Read on to find out:

Shahid Kapur and Priyanka Chopra, Kaminay

Theirs is an unusual pairing. Then again, Vishal Bharadwaj's insolently titled flick isn't a run-of-the-mill offering either.

Shahid Kapur and Priyanka Chopra, incidentally residents of the same building in real life, sport a new look for the movie. Apparently, the stylish couple got along like a house on fire during the making of the film, sparking off rumours of a link-up.

Let's hope some of their off screen bonding translates into a hot 'n' hit on screen jodi as well.
