Inter religion marriages during Mughal era were a way to gain support from different tribes / communities, etc. A way to strengthen rule.
There is a perception that Muslim actors of bollywood (Shahrukh Khan, Aamir Khan, Saif Alikhan) are probably going through a varied form of this concept. portraying themselves as not connected to their religious ideolgies to gain acceptance among masses,etc.
Do you agree with perception / misconception?
What about the overall Indian population? Have the inter religion marriages got acceptance among common people?

I cant comment on policy behind these kind of marriages, but inter religion marriages are still a taboo among middle class Indians. And is expected to remain so in near future.

the boy did not accept islam....but the couple live just next door to her parent's home..they have good relation as girl was the only child of her parents

What kind of problems such couples face? Are their any rules protecting such couples?
so the situation is still same, which was summarised by Bano Qudsia in her latest novel about 1940’s India in the words ‘both communities can’t assimilates in totality as they can’t eat to gether, there utensils can’t be shared. They can’t mingle through inter-marriages’.
It depends on the region where this act is committed....
the class and society to which this couple belong....
In india law does not sto people from having interfaith marriage...
what do you mean by region? is it acceptable in urban and not acceptable in rural. or there is another distinction of areas where interfaith religion is acceptable?
no even in rural areas such kind of marriages take place…
region means one like haryana where sagotra marriage is also a very dangerous act…and punishable by death ..not according to law but khap panchayats of haryana…
to ab wanha hindu muslim shadi to khatarnak hi hogi na…
gothram means bloodline from father side, my gothram is Gandhar, so all Jats who have Gandhar gotram becomes my brother and sister as we are descendent of same ancestor from my father's side. My hubby's is Vishwamitra, so all vishwamitra gotra brahmins of any region of India becomes his brother and sister and my children cannot marry any of the human carrying same gothra :)
