What's common between Katrina Kaif and Deepika (No, not Ranbir Kapoor)

They says when you are in love you want to scream at the top of your lungs, tell the whole world and shout it from the highest mountain.

But it's completely a different story in Bollywood.

Link ups, break-ups, heartache are all well scripted in Hindi films and in the real lives of the stars.

While celebs like Bipasha Basu and Kareena Kapoor were very open about their relationships there are many who live in denial.

A stunning example is Katrina Kaif and Ranbir Kapoor.

Their romance started in the sets of 'Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani' but they were in the 'No Comments' zone.

Lately, they made waves (literally) in the gossip columns when photographed holidaying together on a beach in Ibiza, Spain. Katrina was very angry, wonder if the anger was about her affair being exposed with Ranbir or being clicked in mismatched bikini.

Even after the leaked pictures sealed the secret affair both remained mum.

Katrina ignored the media and Ranbir never clearly stated that he is dating Katrina. But in an interview he did say he would "give his life for Katrina" (that says it all).

Ranbir was very open about his relationship with Deepika Padukone. But with Katrina he is maintaining a silence. Even when Katrina was dating Salman Khan she

accepted her relationship with the star in an interview.

But now it's a different tactics for them. They catch up in the darkness of night, they holiday in foreign countries, they go to the same destination but take different flights - all these, just to keep their affair a secret.

We wonder why the couple is being so tight-lipped this time around.

Then we have the 'Ramleela' couple - Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone.

In Bollywood, rumours of an affair between on-screen couple often crop up when a movie is being made or about to hit the screens.

We shall soon find out whether that is the case with Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone.

When Deepika and Ranbir Kapoor were in a relationship, they did not shy away from professing their love for one another openly. But post their break-up both have employed similar rules - silence.

Deepika and Ranveer Singh have showed some scintillating chemistry in the trailer and dance sequences of 'Ramleela'. And sources claim that their sizzling chemistry goes beyond the cameras.

Ranveer and Deepika's closeness hit the headlines when the two were pictured partying in Dubai. The two were in a tight hug, too tight for "just friends".

They were again photographed together when Deepika was shooting in the emirates for 'Happy New Year'. The actress was in Dubai for almost a month and Ranveer took time out from his shooting schedule to meet his lady.

Ranveer was also spotted in the sets of Deepika's 'Chennai Express' for no reasons.

When her hero was admitted in hospital for dengue treatment Deepika came to visit him when no one else was allowed. She was also there with Ranveer when he was discharged.

But Deepika maintains a stoic silence. And our guess is, Ranveer can only follow the cues from the actress.

Rani Mukerji and Aditya Chopra can join the list as veterans of denial.

Rani Mukerji has alleged been in a relationship with YRF scion Aditya Chopra for a long time now.

Rani and Aditya's alleged love affair was rumoured to have caused a lot of grief to the senior Chopras. Aditya divorced his childhood sweetheart Payal after many years of marriage and apparently Yash and Pamela Chopra were unhappy with this outcome.

However, Rani has always ignored the question or never answered it directly, when asked at interviews and press conferences.

The two have remained elusive from the haunting paparazzi. Yet there have been news of them holidaying together time and again.

Rani has been spotted celebrating festivals at Aditya's house. She was also there with the Chopra family throughout film maker Yash Chopra's funeral.

And then, during an event in the honour of Yash Chopra, when veteran actor Satrugna Sinha called Rani Mukerji, Rani Chopra that was a total give away. This faux pas sparked rumours of their secret marriage.

Rani has been integral part of the Chopra family for many years now but why does Rani still maintain a silence on her relationship status is still a mystery.

We wonder why these stars shy away from accepting their relationship.
