Bollywood actress Elli AvrRam spills the beans on her relationship status
Ever since then, movie buffs have been curious to know if the 'Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon' actress has someone special in her life. During an exclusive interaction with IANS, Elli shared that she prefers to keep her personal life private until there is a ring on her finger. When asked if she has ever thought about settling down, the diva told IANS that she is in no hurry to marry and settle down.
'For me, settling down is not on the cards since I've always loved creating and achieving things, and the day I get married, I want it to be with a partner who has visions together with me and that we achieve them as a power couple,' Elli shared. Revealing what's so special about this birthday, she said that she is back home in Sweden, celebrating with her entire family.
For Elli, her birthday is about feeling grateful and growing wiser with each passing year. She celebrates her special day as per Swedish traditions.
'My birthday for me means one year wiser and gratitude for being alive. I always celebrate my birthday in Swedish style, which means I wake up in bed with breakfast, cake, and gifts! It's how I've been celebrated since childhood and how I always wish to be celebrated. I never bring in the birthday at night. I wake up and celebrate it!,' she shared.
Elli added, 'This year I came home to Sweden to celebrate my birthday with my family because I miss them a lot, and these are precious moments that can never come back.' She further dropped a couple of sneak peeks from her birthday celebration on social media.
On the professional front, the Swedish-Greek actress, who is based in Mumbai, got her big break with the lead role in Saurabh Varma's comedy-thriller 'Mickey Virus.' She later gained wider recognition for her role in the Hindi film 'Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon.' She also appeared on the reality show 'Bigg Boss' in 2013, which brought her into the limelight. Elli also made a special appearance alongside Aamir Khan in the song 'Har Funn Maula' from the film 'Koi Jaane Na.'
Known as the first Swedish actress to make a mark in Bollywood, Elli has often drawn attention for her striking resemblance to actress Katrina Kaif. Elli was last seen in 'Conjuring Kannappan' directed by Selvin Raj Xavier. The film stars Sathish and Regina Cassandra alongside Nassar, Anandaraj, Saranya Ponvannan, VTV Ganesh, and Redin Kingsley.

Vidya Balan's film ‘Parineeta' to re-release in theatres after 20 years
Actress Vidya Balan is getting nostalgic as her Hindi debut film 'Parineeta' is set to re-release in cinemas in 8K restored print. Taking a leaf from the past, the actress said that she always used to crack up when the director of the film Pradeep Sarkar acted out scenes to her particularly the walk of her character. The film has been restored by Prasad Film Labs, bringing its rich visuals and evocative storytelling back to life for a new generation. A new trailer of the film has also been unveiled, celebrating the film's timeless appeal, beauty, soulful music, and the nostalgic elegance of an era. Talking about the new trailer, Vidya Balan said, 'I remember listening to 'Piyu Bole' for the first time; even then, I knew it was something special. There was a softness to it, a kind of innocence that I guess mirrored how I was feeling at the time, new, unsure, and quietly hopeful. Watching the trailer now, that melody brought back memories... the shooting of the scenes with (Dada) Pradeep Da screaming instructions from behind the monitor and how he'd act out moments and expect us to follow. His walk as a woman in my scenes always cracked me up, I'd be like, 'Dada, you don't need to teach me how to walk' (laughs)'. 'I guess, I wasn't aware of the camera, I was just living those moments. I truly couldn't have asked for a more beautiful debut. That kind of purity, the magic of a 1st Uff, 'Parineeta' is full of that because it marks the 1st for many of us, and that's something I'll always hold close', she added. Talking about the film, Sanjay Dutt said, 'Girish was my first Bengali character, and I was very happy to play it. I love Bengali culture. Girish was a quiet guy, but there's a lot going on underneath, and I really connected with that. Pradeep Dada was solid; he was always there to guide me through every beat of the script. I love him and miss him. I was happy that Vinod offered me the film, as I have had a very successful association with him'. 'He is family. Some scenes might look simple now, but they weren't easy at all. Watching the trailer today brought everything back twenty years later. Parineeta was never just another film for me. It was made with a lot of heart and a lot of love, and that's why even two decades on it has a special place in everyone's heart', he added. The restored version of 'Parineeta' will be re-released in select PVR INOX cinemas across India on Aug.29, 2025. The National Award-winning actress aspired to a career in film from a young age and had her first acting role in the sitcom Hum Paanch. She made her film debut by starring in the Bengali film Bhalo Theko and Bollywood debut with the drama Parineeta. Indo-Asian News Service
