Birthday Special: 7 pics of Raqesh Bapat-Shamita Shetty that redefine love and friendship   

As Raqesh Bapat turns a year older, here we bring to you seven heartwarming pictures of the actor with Shamita Shetty that redefine love and friendship:   

Raqesh and Shamita met for the first time on Bigg Boss and as per the format of the show Shamita picked Raqesh as her connection in the show.

They started off as strangers but now they share a really close bond with each other. From Shamita saving Raqesh from the nominations and sacrificing her immunity to Raqesh always having her back, the duo has been setting goals in the house. 

From their cute banters to the sweet gestures they do for each other fans cannot get enough of the two.

Raqesh and Shamita are often seen flirting with each other. There have been times when Raqesh woke her up with a kiss, and on another occasion, he jumped into bed with her and asked if he could sleep there.

There has also been an occasion where we saw Shamita getting upset seeing Raqesh being with Divya. She was heard saying, "Why are you trying to explain yourself? I'm not your girlfriend."

The duo has also shared some of the most intense moments with each other. They have been there for one another during the most emotional times. Raqesh has opened up to Shamita about some of the most personal things in his life. From his father's death to his divorce with Ridhi Dogra that broke him. 

Raqesh who likes to paint in real life showed his art on Shamita as he drew a butterfly on her cheek. Isn't adorable!!

We wish Raqesh a very Happy Birthday!
