Tejasswi Prakash is in a happy space personally, but admits that relationships require a lot of work where partners should be willing to make an effort and talk multiple times a day. “Relationship is a lot of work. I see these couples who don’t even talk to each other. Probably, just make one phone call a day. It’s not about the trust. It is about just taking the relationship for granted that you don’t miss the other person. You don’t want to hear their voice? Or just a normal video call for 10 seconds? To me, it is very weird. Two people are not obsessed with each other. Then there is no fun to it. They should be on your mind. Maybe you are not interested at all,” the 31-year-old actor said.
Speaking about partner Karan Kundrra, with whom she has been in a relationship since 2021, she told Pinkvilla, “Karan was very clear that we can’t get boring. We always keep each other on our toes. Keep yourself entertained. Go for a drive. Do something.”
Jaisleen Kaur, image consultant, soft skills trainer, and life coach, Dehradun, said while it depends from one relationship to another, the bottom line is that all relationships must encourage partners to share their perspectives and practice active listening. “Be genuinely interested in understanding them. This not only fosters a sense of validation but also creates an environment where both partners feel heard and respected,” said Kaur.
She emphasised that partners should understand each other’s work commitments and routines and accordingly take time to make the other feel valued. Apart from that, she also urged couples to spend quality time together outside the digital media.
“Discover activities that both enjoy and can engage in together. Whether it’s a hobby, exercise routine, or a shared project, finding common ground strengthens your bond,” said Kaur.
Relationships evolve, and so do individual habits. “Reflect on what is working well and what may need adjustment. Be open to adapting your approach to ensure that both partners feel heard, understood, and valued,” said Kaur.
