Mother-in-law drama, cute and mushy romance, and some “who did what” masala – no wonder we don’t want to miss even a single episode of Hindi TV serials! As we follow the lives of our favourite TV jodis closely, they make an impact on our expectations from our spouses. And why not? These on-screen couples have given us major #marriagegoals.

7 TV Jodis Who Were the Perfect On-screen Couples

Although new Hindi TV serials keep coming up on different channels, there were a few couples who we loved and talked about for years. That’s because we could relate to them and also pick up a hint or two for our own marital relationships from their lives.

1. Sooraj and Sandhya from Diya Aur Baati Hum

We all remember Bhabho and our favourite Sooraj and Sandhya from Diya Aur Baati Hum, right? Sandhya has dreams of becoming an IPS officer but they seem to shatter when she is married off to a young halwai, Sooraj. When her mother-in-law gets to know that Sandhya doesn’t know how to cook, Sooraj acts as a strong pillar of support for his wife.

To help her learn the household work faster, he takes up the responsibility of teaching her how to cook. Slowly, Sandhya too starts developing feelings for Sooraj. He encourages and motivates her to achieve her ambitions, which is what every wife would wish for.

Marriage Goals They Gave Us:

• Being supportive of our spouse, no matter what the situation
• Being encouraging and motivating towards each other

2. Priya and Ram from Bade Acche Lagte Hain

Priya and Ram Kapoor from Bade Acche Lagte Hain won hearts by setting major relationship goals for married couples. They enter into marriage not knowing each other well enough, yet they respect their long-term commitment and resolve their differences for the welfare of their families.

Then unexpectedly, Priya is involved in an accident and her family thinks she has died. But she doesn’t die and starts a new life in the US under an alias (for reasons unknown). However, when she returns to Ram’s life after many years, he forgives her and forgets all their misunderstandings. Even if they have differences of opinion, they never let it affect their parenting style. Every time Priya and Ram are faced with problems, their trust and respect for each other just grows stronger.

Marriage Goals They Gave Us:

• Sorting out personal differences and the importance of compromising for the well-being of the families of both sides
• Being trustworthy and respectful even in trying situations

Who can forget the Punjabi munda-Tamilian ponnu jodi of Raman and Ishita from Ye Hai Mohabbatein? Raman is a single father raising his daughter, Ruhi. Ishita lives in the same building. On coming to know she is infertile, she develops an emotional attachment to Ruhi. To allow Raman to have custody of his daughter, Ishita gets married to Raman.

She takes good care of Ruhi, slowly developing a deep bond with Raman. In spite of being from a different cultural background, she strives to be accepted by her Punjabi in-laws, and make Raman happy. The couple does have cute arguments, but always quickly forgive each other.

Marriage Goals They Gave Us:

• Being adjusting towards the habits of in-laws
• Not letting differences of opinion affect parenting

4. Suhaana and Ishaan from Sasural Genda Phool

Ishaan, being an understanding husband, gives her space and time.

Arnav falsely accuses her of trying to interfere in their relative’s love life, but on finding out the truth, he apologises to her. A little boy enters their married life – when she gets to know that he is Arnav’s son, Khushi willingly consents to be his step-mother. Even when his wife expresses her desire to be independent and successful, Arnav goes against his family and supports her. Such a gentleman, don’t you think?
