Kahaani mein twist… did you know that the Kahaani Ghar Ghar Ki lead actress Mythili aka Shalini Chandran (Parvati's accountants daughter) from the younger generation and the latest wicked-comic entry Batuk aka Mahesh Kumar (the ruffian) are actually a couple? Not just that but both actually share a cosy live-in relationship. We got the couple's inside story just for you! Batuk was selected for the role after he was spotted picking up and dropping Mythili on the sets everyday. To make life easier, Ekta offered him a job and they have been together since. Mahesh tells us that the two met while shooting for a short film titled Kaun in Delhi. "Aur film ke khatam hote hote hamara rishtaa shuru hogaya! Shalini adds, "What I liked about him the most was his caring nature as a co-star. We started off as good friends, we liked being with each other and we would motivate each other to act better. Though the film did not materialise, our relationship did!" Few know that he has been the face of many print ads and has been in the city for three years followed by Shalini four months ago. "I always wanted to act professionally but I was worried about finishing my studies. My brother encouraged me and here I am." How has their live-in experience been? "Well our parents keep coming. Also things have changed, when you are in an affair, you only spend 2-3 hours with the partner, the practical stuff is overlooked. When you live together the nitty-gritty's surface, your clothes, food, other habits, manners--all of that is not a rosy picture." So has living-in scared the love away? "No, they reply in consensus. Shalini adds, "We both are homely so it works best for us, we enjoy being at home, lazing around. We like to decorate our place, and it feels lovely to be together." And we wish it stays that way!
