Celebrities are only humans and it doesn’t come as a surprise when these celebrity couples break up. However, some splits take an ugly turn. Here is our list of some dreamy couples whose breakup took a messy and chaotic turn.

1. Salman Khan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan 

The Salman-Aishwarya affair has been the talk of the tinsel town for ages. Be it their scorching pairing in Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam or the burning controversies that followed for years after they broke up. The couple started dating in 1999 and ended things in 2001. As per the reports, Salman was an abusive partner. Aishwarya has always kept quiet about it but in an interview, she agreed that she was in a relationship but refused to take any names. Back in November 2001, Salman kept banging Aishwarya’s door at 3 am. He also reportedly showed up on the sets of SRK’s Chalte Chalte and tried to drag her away as he suspected her of having an affair with SRK.

2. Abhishek Bachchan and Karisma Kapoor 

The Haan Maine Bhi Pyaar Kiya on-screen couple were dating in real life for five years and got engaged in 2002 on Amitabh Bachchan’s 60th birthday. However, Abhishek and Karisma’s breakup became the talk of the town back in 2003. The reason behind their shocking split was reportedly pinned on the bitterness created by their mothers, Jaya and Babita. Karisma was a well-established actor, while Abhishek was struggling to find his footing. To secure her daughter’s future, Babita had apparently wanted financial security post-marriage by drawing a prenuptial agreement. Jaya wasn’t too happy with any of it and the duo called off their engagement immediately.
