When I stumbled upon this article 19 Much-in-Love Nach Baliye Jodis who went separate ways after the show ( http://www.indiawest.com/entertainment/television/much-in-love-nach-baliye-jodis-who-went-separate-ways/article_72735400-147a-11e5-bce7-e787b5acc0ea.html), I was a bit shocked. I know breakup do happen and it's now part & parcel of today's life but the numbers shocked me. This article was written during NB season 07, that means it included first 6 seasons only. So, 19 couples out of 60 from NB S1-6 broke up which indicates a shocking 30% break up rate or 3 out of 10 breakups for NB couples!
When I probe the matter further, it was even more shocking as the article had missed out to mention few more couple which would make the break up percentage rate even more astounding (close to 40%!!). Last season was no exception either, it also had quite a few famous breakups. Another interesting fact that there is no season so far where at least one married couple hadn't divorced after participating in Nach Baliye...!! Marriages tend to last longer in our society but seems like it couldn't beat the so called NB curse!!
Couples divorced after NB
Season-1: Delnaaz Irani - Rajeev Paul
Season-2: Shweta Tiwari - Raja Chowdhury
Season-3: Shweta Keswani - Alex O Neill
Amit Sethi - Vikas Sethi
Season-4: Daljeet Kaur - Shaleen Bhanot
Tanushree - Vineet
Reshmi Ghosh - Amit Gupta
Priya Bathija - Jatin Shah
Season-5: Dilmpy Mahjan - Rahul Mahajan
Deepshikha Nagpal - Keshav Arora
Season-6: Raksha Thakur - Vinod Thakur
Bruna Abdullah - Omar Herror
Season-7: Rashmi Desai - Nandish Sandhu
Over all 29 break ups ( including these 13 divorces) in total so far (up to season 7) out of 70 couples, just over 40% split up rate post Nach Baliye!!
Shocking, isn't? Is it the "curse" of Nach Baliye or the couples get bored and tired after spreading so much love in Nach??!!
