As was the case last year, this year too many TV couples will tie the knot. Arjun Punjj and Gurdip Kohli, Tanaaz Lall and Bakhtyaar Iraani and Manoj Bohra and Teejay Sidhu and one of television's hottest bachelors, Iqbal Khan will be getting married in the months to come. While Tanaaz and Bakhtyaar will be getting married in November, Arjun and former co-star Gurdip are set for a December 10 wedding in Delhi. Manoj and Teejay will also be saying their vows in either November or December, depending on the auspicious dates. And Iqbal Khan will marry his long-time girlfriend Sneha in January 2007.
"We'd planned our wedding a long time ago. It's coincidental that so many of our friends and colleagues will also be getting married at the same time," says Arjun. "But the year-end is the marriage season in India, so I guess there'll be more of partying and less of working then, what with so many weddings," laughs Arjun. Tanaaz agrees, "Yes, it's a big coincidence that so many of us will be tying the knot during the same period. But all the weddings will be different experiences, since they will all be different. I think ours will be the first bawa wedding in the television fraternity."
So, is it that most television stars are falling in love with their co-stars because they spend maximum time with them on the sets? "We are together for most of the day, so we do get a chance to know the person better. But it's important to relate to the person, after all, you can spend the whole day with someone, but there can't be a relationship if there is no chemistry," says Arjun. "It's not just about spending time with the other person, you have to get along with him too! There are so many co-stars who just hate each other, yet, they have to spend most of the day together! But yes, to an extent, the long working hours tend to bring us closer. It helps soothe the creases in a relationship," says Tanaaz.
