Romance has been an integral part of Indian cinema since time immemorial with the love between the protagonists of the film been expressed in several ways in the past decades of Bollywood history. Songs have also been used as tools in movies to signify the extent to which the man playing the lead role loves the damsel. While most romantic movies have expressed love in subtle ways, a few have travelled an extra mile in conveying the passion between lovers. Many Indian films with prolonged smooch scenes have been ripped apart by the moral police for explicitly expressing love. Here are 20 kissing scenes from the tinsel town of India, Bollywood, which had got the masses across the country raving. Most of these scenes belong to an era where a lip lock that lasted even a few seconds would raise eyebrows and would be the hot topic of discussion across the nation, especially amongst the youth.
