The buzz began back in February, when the duo was spotted together at an event, sparking dating rumours. So when the 'finally' post surfaced, many believed they were confirming their romance. However, some suspected it might be a prank or part of a promotional campaign — and they were right. Following the release of their music video 'Chandaniya,' Ashish Chanchlani and Elli AvarRam went live on Instagram to set the record straight — and apologize. 'We had no idea this would become so big,' Ashish admitted during the live session. Thanking fans for their support, he said, 'Elli and I wanted to thank you all for the love you've shown for Chandaniya.' Elli, with a sly smile, added, 'And to all the congratulatory messages.' She laughed and confessed, 'It actually felt really good to see all those sweet messages.' Ashish chimed in, 'Elli's parents knew the truth. But apart from them, so many people congratulated us.' When asked how she handled the reaction, Elli said, 'I didn't know what to say. But it did feel nice — it shows we have so many well-wishers.' She then clarified, 'We are not dating.' Ashish jokingly added, 'I can never date this person. Mujhe pagal kutte ne nahi kata hai (I haven't gone mad).' He continued, 'Working with her is extremely difficult.'

My original thought was, 'Let's prank,' because my followers are used to my jokes. But we didn't expect it to get this big.' He added with a laugh, 'It took us two days to realise how far it had gone. My mom's friend even called to say, 'Don't send sweets, I'm not at home.' That's when we knew we had to burst the bubble.' Ending the live on a humorous note, Ashish Chanchlani joked, 'Elli, didn't it ever cross your mind… maybe we should actually date after this fiasco?' Elli AavrRam shot him a sharp look, and Ashish quickly backtracked: 'Okay, never mind. I can never date her.' He then surrendered with a smile, 'Acha jaane do (Let it go).'
