  "account": "Actor Arjun Bijlani recently admitted to influencing the relationship between his co-stars Mohit Sehgal and Sanaya Irani on the set of Miley Jab Hum Tum. When asked if he had brought them together, Bijlani confirmed, \"Haan, maine hi karwaya tha\" (\"Yes, I brought them together\"). He explained that Sanaya initially refused Mohit's advances, so he encouraged her to see him as a \"nice guy\" whom she shouldn't miss out on. Bijlani noted that Mohit had always been smitten with Sanaya, and Sanaya eventually reciprocated the love. Psychologist Rasshi Gurnani noted that friends often play a significant role in shaping people's perceptions of relationships, applying positive peer pressure to help individuals overcome hesitation. While friends can act as a \"mirror,\" highlighting a potential partner's positive qualities, friends should not pressure someone into a decision they're not ready for. Gurnani emphasized that open and honest communication, without deadlines or external pressure, is the healthiest way for partners to reach clarity.",
