Karisma Kapoor-Sanjay Kapur, Hrithik Roshan-Sussanne Khan and Arbaaz Khan-Malaika Arora Khan are a few celebrity couples who have parted ways after having trouble in their paradise.

“However you resolve it, you need to make sure you do it within that circle of marriage. That’s why I feel I’m a bit middle-class in my thinking. Trust and respect are very important for a successful marriage.
