Since yesterday, Jacqueline Fernandez is grabbing headlines because of her personal life. According to the news, Jacqueline is in love for some time now with a South-based entrepreneur. And looks like things are so serious between them.

Reportedly, the due is much in love and is ready to take the big step by living together. It is said that Jacqueline has been secretly house-hunting between Juhu and Bandra for the last two months during the lockdown. The actress was looking for a standalone, beach-facing property worth Rs 175 cr, and, as per the TOI report, she made a perfect love-nest for herself and her beau.

But did you know long back, the 50 years old filmmaker Sajid Khan and 35 years old Srilankan beauty Jacqueline were in fell in love with the sets of 'Housefull 2'? Yes, this is right; however, it ended within 3-years.

In 2013, the couple ended their 3-year-old relationship as things didn't work out between the two. According to reports, Khan's over possessiveness towards Jacqueline became a significant reason for the break-up.

According to reports, Sajid's zeal as a lover may have killed the blooming romance. A source close to the couple said, "He was always protective, but at times too possessive of his girlfriend," adding, "Jackie brought out his prudish side... he had issues with the way she dressed, her roles... everything."

Some said that this relationship had cost Jacqueline her coveted roles in Jism -2 and Krrish-3. Reports also suggested that Sajid prohibited her from kissing Hrithik Roshan on screen or shooting sensual scenes with Arunoday Singh and Randeep Hooda.

"Sajid's bear hug was stifling Jackie, and though it was a painful decision, they decided it is best to remain friends and end up as bickering lovers," said the source.

However, Sajid had a different version of his break-up with Jacqueline. In an interview with TOI, Sajid was asked about his break-up and how it affects the making of Humshakals, a film that Sajid directed after Himmatwala, which eventually proved to be a dud at the box office.

Sajid indirectly blamed Jacqueline for his Himmatwala's failure at the box office. He was quoted as saying, "while we broke up in May 2013, it started becoming sour in reality right from December 2012. So you are already preparing your mind in those five months. Also, when you don't have a woman in your life, you don't have someone constantly nagging you, so you end up working better and are more focused. I went for a holiday with her for five days in the middle of making Himmatwala and felt so bad when the film didn't do well. For Humshakals, I have not taken a single holiday."
