Bollywood badshah Shah Rukh Khan is a bundle of contradictions. Just when you think, you've had him figured out he pulls a surprise on you. He believes that the institution of marriage does not end on account of infidelity. This statement comes as a surprise because SRK was one of the few actors who always prided himself on being a one-woman man and couldn't look beyond his wife Gauri.

He was recently quoted as saying, "You can't go on believing that love will continue to take care of marriage. Attractions do happen. Just because there is this special myth about special love between couples, we get caught up with unreal expectations."

The actor who successfully played the devoted lover in many a romantic flick of his, seems to have redefined the institution of marriage altogether. But Shah Rukh is only echoing the sentiments of the new age married man who views his relationship from a mature perspective.

Television actor Sudhanshu Pande who has been married for 10 years agrees, "A successful marriage calls for a lot of effort on the part of both partners. And yes, it is not enough to be madly in love with your partner. You've got to understand each other well enough. Otherwise things will not work out. Also I believe there is a lot more pressure on couples who live in metro cities where there are all kinds of influences. There are temptations all around you and often with both couples working longish hours, there is a tendency for one to drift apart too."

Shah Rukh goes on to add that couples today have become most intolerant when it comes to their marriages because they can't tolerate their partners straying and that a little bit of patience can work wonders for any marriage.

Television actor Sharad Kelkar has been married for just about a year to actress Keerti Gaikwad says, "You have to be in love with your partner and stay loyal to her. You have to mould your relationship in manner where you are comfortable with each other as a couple. Marriage is really about give and take.

Over a period of time a strong bond is formed between a couple, and despite the external distractions, you know where your priorities lie. If you are in tandem with your partner, you're not going to ruin things for yourself as a couple."
