Hindi TV Serial - Bade Acche Lagte Hai - Focus on the struggle in Vikram and Neha's life

For viewers of the serial, the main attraction of the serial was the relationship between Ram and Priya, and with the presence of Pihu in the serial, she was also somebody who viewers liked to see. However, how long can you only keep showing 2 or 3 main characters in a serial, serial makers try to ensure that there are side stories ongoing in any serial, since that allows a serial to continue for a long period of time, and this is there in Bade Ache Lagte Hain as well. So, the close friends of Ram and Priya, Vikram and Neha, suddenly developed a huge problem after the time leap. Before the time leap, their relationship was a very stable relationship, but after the break, the show kept the suspense for a long time, showing that the relationship was under strain, both of them were talking about a divorce and separation.

It was only after quite some time that the serial showed that the reason for the tension in the relationship was the presence of a teenager called Rehan, a person who the serial hinted for some time was the illegitimate son of Vikram (after all, it is easier to bring in a son for the husband rather than the wife because if the wife was having an illegitimate son, it would be easy for anybody to know about it). It was only after quite some time that the serial showed that this was the son of Neha, in a relationship that happened before the marriage and where she was told that the child was dead at birth.

Now, they are dealing with this news. The tension in the relationship has been huge, Neha has moved out of the house since she wants some time off to figure out her emotions; Vikram supports her to some degree, but he has to deal with his wife having had a son earlier, and he has to continue living with the family and trying to answer questions; even in dealing with the elder son Rahul who feels that his parents have betrayed him; and he is now starting to point fingers at Neha for having easily moved out of the house rather than trying to resolve matters.

In the case of Ram and Priya, there is some settlement that is going to happen soon, probably because Chahat Khanna, who is playing the role of Ayesha, does not like that her role has been turned totally negative; and the news is that she wants out of the serial. Also, the serial is showing that both Ram and Priya realize that Pihu needs the presence of both mother and father.
