Narrated by :

More chocolate and coffee are sold when theaters play rom-coms, Thousands of women sigh collectively as chocolate melts in their mouths. And it's the kisses on the silver screen that offer the most legally available public seduction. Remember Cinema Paradiso? Sigh.height=

The Romantic Setting

When Burt Lancaster and Deborah Kerr (From here to eternity) kissed on the beach, tourism industry must have experienced a surge in demand for beach destinations. A case in point? Amitabh Bachchan and Rekha made Tulip tourism huge after Silsila. They are not shown kissing, but Switzerland remains the Indian honeymooner's favourite destination. Emraan Hashmi, the serial kisser and Mallika Sherawat did the same for Bangkok.

The Taming Kiss

Shakespeare wrote The Taming Of The Shrew and everyone from Clark Gable (Gone with the Wind) to Sunny Deol (Betaab), from Dustin Hoffman (The Graduate) to the surprise kiss in Athadu height=(Mahesh Babu and Trisha) to the most recent Arunoday Singh (Yeh Saali Zindagi) have kissed the girls in order to stop them from speaking. And the women, who might otherwise hate being manhandled, melt into those masterful arms...height=

When Flowers Quiver

The directors have always found loopholes in the law about 'protecting the public morality', and Alfred Hitchcock shows us how brilliantly it can be done (Notorious). Indian directors took refuge behind quivering flowers...height=height=We could analyse until the cows come home or drool over kisses and sound like romantic novellas, but that would take away the magic of the kisses, won't it? So without any more extra words, here are some our favourite kisses from the silver screen.Don't forget to add some of yours here...
