Elli's reaction to Pandya's 'Koffee With Karan' controversy and a cryptic post after his engagement to Natasa Stankovic fueled further speculation. While the actress is currently rumoured to be dating influencer Ashish Chanchlani , her past link-up with cricketer Hardik Pandya continues to intrigue fans.

Here's a look back at their whirlwind equation and where things stand today. Spotted Together, Sparking Dating Buzz Elli and Hardik were frequently spotted together a few years ago, sparking strong dating rumours. From cozy public appearances to Elli reportedly joining him on cricket tours, their bond grabbed attention. However, despite the buzz, neither of them ever confirmed being in a relationship. Family Functions and Fuelled Speculation The rumored couple further fueled speculation by attending family events together. Elli was notably seen at Hardik's brother Krunal Pandya's wedding, and was also photographed at Krunal and Pankhuri Sharma's grand reception at JW Marriott, Mumbai, in 2017—adding more fire to the dating buzz. Years later, Elli AvrRam and Hardik Pandya's brief romance came to an end. Elli's Reaction to Hardik's KWK Controversy In 2019, Hardik found himself at the center of a major controversy after making sexist and racist remarks on Karan Johar's chat show Koffee With Karan. At the time, Elli AvrRam reportedly reacted to the incident at an award function, expressing shock and disapproval. She stated that the cricketer's behavior didn't reflect the Hardik she 'personally once used to know.' The Cryptic Post After Hardik's Engagement Pandya moved on and got engaged to Natasa Stankovic (now his ex-wife) in 2020. Around the same time, in January, Elli AvrRam shared a cryptic post on Instagram that caught attention. Her note read, "Be your own Angel this time xx," sparking speculation about its hidden meaning. The Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon actress later addressed the buzz around her cryptic post, which many believed was aimed at ex-flame Hardik Pandya. However, Elli clarified that the message had 'nothing to do with him' and added that she was genuinely happy for Hardik and Natasa at the time. Cut to 2025, Elli is now rumoured to be dating popular influencer Ashish Chanchlani. The duo was first spotted together at the Elle List 2025 event in February, sparking speculation. Their latest picture on Instagram has only added fuel to the fire, with fans convinced they've made their relationship official.

Elli AvrRam TROLLED for 'Body Count' After Photo With Ashish Chanchlani, Fans Clap Back
Last Updated: After Ashish Chanchlani posted a romantic photo with Elli AvrRam, the actress became the target of sexist trolling online. Actress Elli AvrRam is back in the spotlight, but this time it's not for a film or a red-carpet appearance. The buzz began after popular YouTuber Ashish Chanchlani posted a cozy photo with her on his social media, captioned simply, 'Finally ❤️." The intimate frame and cryptic caption immediately sent fans and followers into a spiral of speculation, with many interpreting it as a soft launch of their relationship. The two have been spotted together at various public events recently, but this post fanned the flames of dating rumours like never before. While a section of the internet assumed it could be a teaser for an upcoming collaboration between the two, the tone of the post—and the red heart emoji—hinted at something more personal. Unfortunately, what began as intrigue quickly gave way to a darker side of the internet, as Elli became the target of intense and misogynistic trolling. Indian men trolling Ashish for Elli AvrRam's body count—bruh, y'all gonna end up with a 5ft Indian lady who comes with a moustache, shaggy skin, sasta white lady vibes, and the same body count. When both gold and stone are in the dirt, any mentally stable human picks gold — KARNA (@S_Karna002) July 13, 2025 Several users began commenting on her so-called 'body count," a crude term often used to refer to the number of sexual partners a person has had—typically used to police and shame women. One comment falsely claimed that Elli's 'body count" was 35 and warned Ashish to 'be cautious." This set off a chain reaction of regressive, sexist commentary on social media platforms. However, not everyone joined the pile-on. In fact, many netizens swiftly came to Elli's defense, calling out the disturbing mindset behind such comments. One user wrote, 'Indian men trolling Ashish for Elli AvrRam's body count—bruh, y'all gonna end up with a 5ft Indian lady who comes with a moustache, shaggy skin, sasta white lady vibes, and the same body count. When both gold and stone are in the dirt, any mentally stable human picks gold." Another chimed in with, 'The ones trolling Elli AvrRam's body count are the same people who've never had sex but act like relationship experts. Why does someone's past bother you more than your own future? If Ashish is happy, that's what matters." While Elli AvrRam has yet to respond to the criticism, she is no stranger to navigating online toxicity with grace and silence. Born on July 29, 1990, Elli is currently 34 years old, while Ashish Chanchlani, born December 8, 1993, is 31. The age gap between them—3 years and 4 months—was also highlighted by some users, though it was largely drowned out by the more aggressive commentary around her personal life.

Before Ashish Chanchlani, Elli AvrRam reportedly dated THIS cricketer, attended family functions, silently parted ways
Elli AvrRam, known for her roles in Bollywood films like Mickey Virus, Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon, and Malang, shot to fame with her stint on Salman Khan's Bigg Boss in 2013. Recently, she made headlines after a cosy picture with influencer Ashish Chanchlani surfaced online. While the picture continues to spark their dating rumours, many might not know that Elli once dated a high-profile cricketer who ended up marrying someone else from the film industry. Elli AvrRam reportedly dated Hardik Pandya. If reports are true, the two were together briefly before parting ways silently. Later, Hardik met Natasa Stanković, the DJ Waley Babu music video girl, and announced their engagement. A few years ago, Elli AvrRam and Hardik Pandya were frequently spotted at the same locations, sparking buzz about their alleged romance. From public outings to Elli accompanying Hardik on some of his cricket tours, reports claimed that their closeness was often noticed by eagle-eyed fans. Though neither of them ever confirmed the rumours of being in a relationship, the speculations only grew stronger when Elli attended Pandya's family functions. In December 2017, the actress made headlines when spotted at the wedding reception of Hardik's brother, Krunal Pandya, in Mumbai. Later, it seemed that things eventually fizzled out, and the two quietly went their separate ways. While it's not known when exactly they ended their rumoured relationship, in 2019, Elli condemned the cricketer for his viral remark at Karan Johar's chat show, Koffee with Karan. Hardik Pandya sparked massive outrage after making 'sexist and racist' remarks on Karan Johar's talk show Koffee With Karan. Amid the controversy, Elli AvrRam was reportedly asked about the incident during an award show. While she didn't mention him directly, Pinkvilla reported that she appeared visibly shocked by his comments. Disapproving of his behaviour, Elli remarked that the person in the news didn't reflect the Hardik Pandya she had 'once personally known.' Cut to 2020, Hardik announced his engagement to Natasa Stankovic (now ex-wife) on New Year's. Soon after he announced the news on Instagram, Elli grabbed everyone's attention with a cryptic post. It read, "Be your own Angel this time xx." Later, she clarified about the alleged post, which many assumed was linked to her alleged ex, Hardik. She told BollywoodLife, "You got to be kidding me; that New Year's one ...no, it had nothing to do with him. I love the way you guys just pick up things and overthink and go into this space of like, trying to send a message to him. If I want to tell him something, I'd just drop him a message. I don't have to go through Instagram to do it. So, no, that had nothing to with him, nothing, and I'm seriously happy for him and Natasa.' Meanwhile, Hardik Pandya and Natasa Stankovic announced their divorce in July 2024. While Elli is yet to publicly confirm her new romance with the popular content creator, the two have already made a joint appearance at an event this year. In February, they were spotted together at the Elle List 2025 awards. Elli was last seen in Abhishek Bachchan's dance-drama film, Be Happy.

The caption, simply reading 'Finally❤️✨', left fans convinced that they were making their relationship official. Soon, the comments were filled with heart emojis and excited guesses. When Elli made headlines on ' Bigg Boss ' Long before these Ashish rumours, Elli had already made waves in India. She first became known when she took part in the reality show 'Bigg Boss' season 7 in 2013. What really caught people's eye back then was her bond with the show's host, Salman Khan . The 'Sultan' actor seemed quite fond of Elli on the show. Even after she left the house, she was often seen attending Salman 's family gatherings and parties. Naturally, this started a chain of gossip and link-up stories. 'These rumours make me laugh' Elli did not let these rumours bother her. In a past chat with Hindustan Times, she shared how little it affected her. 'I actually don't bother. I don't give any answer to these rumours and articles. It gave me a sort of laughter. I don't even acknowledge because I think it'll only lead to more of them. So if they want to talk about it, I cannot stop them.'

Shutting down 'Salman made my career' claims It wasn't just romance rumours. At one point, people even claimed that whatever work Elli got in the film world was all thanks to Salman Khan. But Elli quickly set the record straight. Calling these claims false, she said, 'It's all such a big lie. The only godfather I have is my own [biological] father. My parents have supported me, whether it's guiding me or financially. So, all the credit for my success goes to them and no one else.
