Salman Rules Bollywood, SRK Gets Rude Shock, 'Forbes India' Releases 'Top 2014 Celebrity Ranking'

The 2014 Forbes India Celebrity 100 ranking in its third year has found a new leader. For the first time in its three-year run, Shah Rukh Khan has been unseated from the top slot by friend and peer Salman Khan. Reason: The star didn’t have a film release (barring a cameo) in the period considered for this list (October 1, 2013 to September 30, 2014). Consequently, he finds himself at No 3.

Salman Khan, meanwhile, has topped the charts, both in terms of revenues and fame – a first for a Forbes India celebrity list topper. Clearly, though controversy and court cases continue to dog the actor, his clout has only grown with his box office hits, TV appearances and his charitable trust Being Human.

Need Of The Hour: Does Your Marriage Need Counselling?

...or rather does it really help a marriage? It's largely dependent on the mindset of the couple who are seeking help, say experts 

Once upon a time marriage was a 'forever' commitment. Today, however, it's a completely different story with some marriages being as short lived as just a few days or months. Divorce is no longer an alien or feared word among couples. In fact, with the current escalating divorce rate, marriage and relationship counsellors are a busy lot, some often working overtime.

Research: 'The Concept Of Divorce Under Muslim Law'

Firm union of the husband and wife is a necessary condition for a happy family life. Islam therefore, insists upon the subsistence of a marriage and prescribes that breach of marriage contract should be avoided. 

Initially no marriage is contracted to be dissolved but in unfortunate circumstances the matrimonial contract is broken. One of the ways of such dissolution is by way of divorce . Under Muslim law the divorce may take place by the act of the parties themselves or by a decree of the court of law. However in whatever manner the divorce is effected it has not been regarded as a rule of life. In Islam, divorce is considered as an exception to the status of marriage. The Prophet declared that among the things which have been permitted by law, divorce is the worst.
