Hiten Tejwani and Gauri Pradhan
Reel and Real
This gorgeous couple met
on the sets of their first TV
soap together, and
gradually fell for each
other. The two married in
2003. Pratham and Gauri –
their screen names in
Kutumb – became nation's
darlings, thanks to their
unusual love-story that
struck such an instant
chord with the viewers. It
was because of the
immense popularity of
this jodi that clearly
boosted the serial's TRPs,
that Balaji Telefilms were
ready with its second
season as soon as they
wrapped up the first one.
Hiten-Gauri's successful
pairing was repeated in
Ekta Kapoor's Kyunki Saas
Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi also.
