And they lived happily ever after? That would be boring!So, even the best on screen marriages need their share of upheavals to create some excitement in the show and keep people hooked to their television sets.

For some small screen couples, the honeymoon period is over and it's testing time ahead for them. The couples in trouble include Samir Soni-Keerti Nagpure (Parichay - Nayee Zindagi Ke Sapno Ka), Barun Sobti-Sanaya Irani (Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon?), Ram Kapoor-Sakshi Tanwar (Bade Achhe Lagte Hai), Dimple Jhangiani-Navi Bhangu (Amrit Manthan), Mona Singh-Pawan Shankar-Mouli Ganguly-Hiten Tejwani (Kya Huaa Tera Vaada), Sudeep Sahir-Sharddha Arya (Main Laxmi Tere aangan Ki), Ravi Dubey-Aishwarya Sakhuja (Saas Bina Sasural), and Sharad Kelkar-Kritika Kamra ( Kuch Toh Log Kahenge).

Showing some trouble brewing in the 'happily married' lives of these couples is surely the next step after showing them smitten with each other and a few romantic sequences. Actor Ravi Dubey says, "There comes a time in a marriage where a third person enters your private space. It does not necessarily mean infidelity but then a person becomes so possessive, that trespassing of any kind by the third person creates trouble even in a strong relationship. How people involved in the relationship respond to it shows whether the relationship is very strong or not." Prashant Bhatt, fiction head of a GEC says, "A couple always goes through situations which test whether their relationship can stand strong or not.

In Parichay, Siddhi and Kunal do not have any problems, but because Siddhi is arrested, the issue is how they handle The Situation together. In Balika Vadhu, there is trouble in Jagya and Gauri's relationship because of lack of understanding and respect."

Possessive and interfering family, the entry of a new boy/girl in the lead actors' life, a life-threatening any one of the above reasons leads to differences between a couple. So what is it about this track that attracts more audiences? Producer Rajan Shahi of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, Amrit Manthan and Kuch Toh Log Kahenge says, "Any conflict is essential in storytelling. Ups and downs in relationships happen in real life also and daily soaps are a reflection of this. There will never be a great love story without drama."

Tellyland's new formula of trouble brewing in marital paradise, the audience is set for a tearjerking, which might translate into TRPs. Now do you see a link?
