For me their good onscreen chemistry that is enough for me.That speaks volume about their professionalism n also their dignified nature.For a show sake they should not fake as a person what they r not actually in reality.If the story n upcoming track is good enough to attract viewers.That will increase TRP.Not the two actors playing leads r friend or not
i agree that the story has to be good to have a good trp..but i will not be able to relate to a love scene of the two characters if i see them fighting off screen a minute ago! as mary said its a natural reaction to a not so good action!
