Time and again, we hear about couples in the Tinseltown who are getting hitched, after years of dating each other. And many a time, there are preferences when it comes to your partners. For instance, Sanjay Kapoor has hots for tall girls, and that's why when he first laid his eyes on his now-wife, Maheep Sandhu, he instantly fell in love. Maheep Kapoor was an NRI of Punjabi origin and a famous jewellery designer. She had been living in Australia before she came to India to try her luck in Bollywood.
