But, did you know, how Abhishek proposed to Aishwarya? Abhi had popped the question on a freezing New York balcony in the year 2007, while they were shooting for their hit movie Guru.
 

The surprising part is that the ring was not a solitaire from Cartier or Tiffany, the big brands from New York City, but was a fake ring.

Yes, you heard it right, the ring that Abhi gave to Aishwarya while proposing was a prop from the sets of Mani Ratnam's film.

According to reports, Abhishek, who was madly in love with Aishwarya, decided to ask her to marry him while returning from the premiere of Guru in Toronto without any pre-plan.

But, love doesn't need any planning, and the actress instantly said yes to the proposal and was overwhelmed by his surprise.
