Busy showbiz couples share their love sutra with Hyderabad Times
SARAH SALVADORE Times News Network
They seemed like a perfect BTown match. She ' the doeeyed beauty and he ' the handsome hunk. Pictures of Kangna Ranaut and boyfriend Adhyayan Suman told the story of a young romance, with little hint of torment in the future. But now, B-Town is abuzz with news of their split. The young couple claim that's it's their busy work schedule that led to them parting ways. While Bollywood and the TV industry are notorious for their hectic work hours, a lot of B-Towners and telly couples have managed to keep their romance alive. Heading the list is Kareena Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan. Tattoos apart, the couple has made sure to keep their romance alive by regularly visiting one another on the sets and taking vacations together. Youngsters Deepika Padukone and Ranbir Kapoor too have managed to keep the spark alive in their romance in spite of their hectic work schedules.
Ditto for Ash and Abhi Bachchan. As far as tellyland is concerned, most couples seem to have found a way to make their romances work. "It's true that working hours in showbiz is very erratic. But when you are in love you absolutely need to make time for each other," says actor Sara Khan, from Sapna Babul Ka' Bidaai, who is in a relationship with actor Ali Merchant.
But with a work schedule spanning 12 to 14 hours, where does one have the time for romance? "In an age of communication when will a mobile phone come in use?" asks Sara. "If we can't meet one another, Ali and I make sure to update each other on the phone."
Aamir Ali and Sanjeeda Sheikh too have managed to keep the flames of their romance alive.
"Work will always consume your time. But one needs to find time for love too," say Ali.
Psychiatrists attribute splits between busy showbiz couples to not just communication breakdown, but to change in value system. "People in showbiz tend to adopt the materialistic lifestyle, where they do not have the patience to work on their relationships. They call it 'no time' and this sounds the death knell for any relationship," says psychiatrist Prabhakar Korada.
While some might argue that work invariably comes in between showbiz couples, many have taken the high road by keeping work out of their homes. "Manasi is busy with her production house and me with films. When we are together, work is left out of the confines of our home," says actor-director Rohit Roy.
Similarly, Hiten Tejwani and Gauri Pradhan make time for one another by taking regular vacations. "At least once a year, Gauri and me keep work aside and go on a vacation. It helps us to make up for all the lost time," says Tejwani.
Love can be a twisted game. And for people in showbiz, the intense media scrutiny and non-communication could be the pitfalls. But one can take a leaf off the Abhi-Ash, Saif-Kareena and the tellyland romances to make it work.
