10 Most Weirdest Onscreen Couples Bollywood Ever Paired!

As we all knows that Sony Tv show Pehredaar Piya Ki is in controversies these days. The show has courted criticism for its infamous plotline- revolving around the marriage of a 10-year-old boy to an 18-year-old woman- for depiction of ‘objectionable’ content including suhaag raat and stalking scenes, and on other similar accounts.

Some people have even demanded to ban it for alleged vulgarity and promoting child marriage. Incidentally, the tele-serial, featuring a young prince Affan Jameel Khan and his caretaker, Tejaswi Prakash Wayangakar, has also generated controversy on social media for its content. There is also an online petition, addressed to Union Minister Smriti Irani, demanding a ban on the show. It has garnered more than 1 lakh signatures.
