The 36-year-old actor is set to break many hearts as she is ready to settle down very soon. But not many know that once upon a time, Riya Sen dated Bollywood hunk John Abraham. And if reports are to be believed, the ‘Jism’ actor was so much in love with Riya that he actually wanted to get married to her.

According to reports, it was during late 90s that Riya first met John. Not a popular face in films, John was only modelling when the two met before the release of Riya’s Bollywood debut ‘Style’. They instantly hit it off. Reportedly, John was madly in love with Riya and wanted to settle down with her. But Sen rejected his offer for her Bollywood career, which ironically never took off. She was in no mood to give up on her so-called promising career and turned down John’s marriage proposal. Soon, the two parted ways.

2. Ashmit Patel

 In the year 2005, she starred along with Ashmit Patel (Amisha Patel’s younger brother), in a film Silsiilay. The two co-actors grew quite close to each other and soon by the end of the film’s shooting were dating each other. The relationship was a usual celebrity type but it soon changed when the pair appeared in a certain slanderous video in mid-2005.

Their relationship was highly controversial, as the leaked MMS was creating storms on the web. In the MMS, both were seen in compromising position. The couple denied it and called the MMS fake, but their affair rumors were the talk of the town at that time and both of them got broken up. Interestingly, only one day after Riya’s wedding, Ashmit engaged with his girlfriend Mahek Chahal.

3. Salman Rushdie

Riya was single for a long time after her MMS scandal. In 2008, she met Salman Rushdie, the Man Booker Prize winning author, and the affair of both of them started soon. Rushdie was known to have a penchant of wooing alluring women and was fresh out of a divorce with his fourth wife and celebrity model Padma Lakshmi. Riya seemed to be a wonderful fit in the void that was left in Rushdie’s life. In fact when he first met her at a nightclub in Mumbai, he spared no time in sharing his number and email ID with her. 

This affair was kept quite hidden, but everyone knew it then Riya was called by Salman Rushdie in New York. When Riya was quizzed about it she gave the run-of-the-mill answer i.e. ‘We are just friends’ but also added that she is not making any judgements and letting things go with the flow. The relationship of these two was ended after a few months.

5. S. Sreesanth

After a brief fling with Yuvraj Singh, Riya seemed to have developed a soft corner in her heart for cricketers. It was a year since she had ended her eye-blink relationship with Yuvraj and now was being linked with the bad boy of Indian cricket, S. Sreesanth. When asked about it, she denied any romantic allegiance with Sreesanth but the media was not going to take it even with a pinch of salt, which obviously resulted in sensationalized gossip and a mass Sreesanth Riya Sen marriage hysteric. But their relationship ended soon.
