When it comes to relationships, age differences are usually a topic of concern. But in tinseltown, it doesn't really matter -- here are a few of our favourite celeb couples with the largest imaginable gaps between them!
Katrina Kaif and Salman Khan
This hot jodi have been together for nearly seven years now -- a figure which, incidentally, isn't a patch on the age gap between them. Yes, you read right -- Sallu is 43 and Kat is 24. That pegs their difference at 19 years!
The couple rarely comment on each other and Katrina has never acknowledged their relationship to the press, but if rumours are to be believed, they've hit a rocky patch these past few months. While Salman is ready to settle down, the lovely young actress has only just tasted sweet career success. Could it be that the years are catching up? Whether they will end up together or not remains to be seen.
Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher

If our Bollywood heroes romance lovely ladies decades younger than them on and off screen, Hollywood can't be far behind!
Take sultry siren Demi Moore, who married her boytoy boyfriend Ashton Kutcher in 2005. She's 46 and he's 31, making her 15 years older.
And Ashton is only a decade older than Demi's eldest daughter Rumer, so he's more like a brother to her than a stepdad!
Sachin and Anjali Tendulkar

There's a five-year gap between the Little Master and his wife -- Anjali will be 41 this year, while Sachin turned 36 only two weeks ago. They met through mutual friends and age was never a factor -- they have two kids and the perfect life together.
Beyonce Knowles and Jay-Z

This was truly a match made in heaven -- Beyonce is one of the most popular popstars on the planet and her hiphop artist-turned-businessman hubby Jay-Z is one of the richest rap moguls on the planet.
While there's a 12-year difference between them -- she's 27, he's 39 -- they're one couple who have the utmost respect for each other and fiercely guard their private lives from the press. Looks like age is just a number here!
Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes

There was a whirlwind three-month romance, a proposal atop the Eiffel Tower and a baby all within the span of a year. Katie Holmes became Mrs Tom Cruise seven months after they welcomed their baby daughter Suri into the world and this high-profile couple has been together ever since.
Tom is 46, 16 years older than his prettier half, so it's not surprising that rumours continually surface about him being overly-possessive and bossy around Katie. But for now, the two are very much together.
Aamir Khan and Kiran Rao

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie

Now this one caught you by surprise, didn't it? There's so much written about Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt that the sizeable age difference between the supercouple is often overlooked!
Angie will be 34 next month, while Brad will turn 46 in December -- that's 12 years (and six children!) they've got between them. Think the relationship will last? Only time will tell.
Sanjay and Manyata Dutt

Next up we have Sanju and Manyata.
Munnabhai will reach the half-century mark this year, while his wife is only 31. In fact, Mana is closer in age to her 20-something stepdaughter, Trishala but when quizzed about the couple's age gap she was quoted as saying, "I have always been mature for my age and Sanju has always been a little childish for his age, so it makes no difference now."
Catherine Zeta Jones and Michael Douglas

Farhan and Adhuna Akhtar

Farhan, 35, is yet another hubby from the filmi brigade who's younger than his wife. Hairstylist Adhuna, 41, is 6 years older than him -- not a very large gap, but then somehow it's always a big deal when the woman is older, isn't it? They don't seem to think so, though!
Halle Berry and Gabriel Aubry

Super-sexy actress Halle is 42 years old, while her model boyfriend and the father of her daughter, Gabriel is 32. Ten years seems like a lot, doesn't it -- unless you compare their union to Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta Jones!
