Saas-bahu pairs that redefined the relationship on TV

The 'saas-bahu jodi' is what spices up daily soaps. Here are some of the jodis that fans have loved in the past for the way they redefined the relationship on the Indian television screen.

Gopi Modi and Kokila Modi (Saath Nibhana Saathiya)

One of the most loved jodis in daily soaps, and who could forget the meme fest they unleashed last year -- "Rasode mein kaun tha". Kokila Modi always protected her bahu Gopi and did everything she could do for her daughter-in-law.

Ishita and Santoshi are among the most loved saas-bahu jodis on television, still recalled for their love-hate relationship. Their on-screen equation won them a huge fan base.
