Ashish Chanchlani clarifies dating rumours with Elli AvrRam after Chandaniyan release: 'I can never date this person...'

Following the release of their romantic music video ‘Chandaniyan,’ YouTuber who turned into an actor Ashish Chanchlani and actress Elli AvrRam found themselves at the center of dating speculation, sparked by a cozy social media post captioned 'Finally.'

In a joint live session, the duo clarified that the post was meant to celebrate the song’s release, not a relationship milestone.

Ashish says dating Elli is out of the question

Ashish humorously dismissed the idea of dating Elli, suggesting that the thought had never seriously crossed his mind. He described her as a challenging personality to collaborate with, with the tone of playfulness and affectionate. The two laughed off the speculation, with Elli acknowledging that the congratulatory messages were sweet, even if they were not accurate.

'Finally' was about the song, not a relationship

Elli clarified that the caption 'Finally' on the post referred to the release of the album, ‘Chandaniyan’ which was long-awaited. Ashish admitted he had hoped to tease his followers, but did not expect the post would spark such widespread talks. Elli further corrected him gently, noting that it was not a prank, but happened to be just a caption which got misunderstood by the audience.

Viral reactions and family confusion

The duo shared that even Ashish’s mother received congratulatory calls, with one friend jokingly asking not to send sweets.

The media coverage and fan frenzy prompted them to clarify the situation publicly. Ashish admitted it took them two days to realize how far the post had gone, saying, “That’s when we knew we had to burst the bubble.”

Ending on a cheeky note

Toward the end of the live session, Ashish jokingly asked Elli if she would ever consider dating him after the chaos which happened to be popular on the social media. Her sharp reaction made it clear that was not on the cards, prompting Ashish to react with a grin.
