Avika Gor and Milind Chandwani
Avika Gor rose to fame with her stint on Colors TV show Balika Vadhu. She later became a part of Sasural Simar Ka and then ventured into South Cinema. Now, the actress is returning to the small screen with fiancé Milind Chandwani where she officially confirmed their marriage.
The actress shared the joyful news during the grand premiere Pati Patni Aur Panga - Jodiyon Ka Reality Check. Making the big announcement, Avika shared, "There's something incredibly poetic about going back to the place where it all began with gratitude, nostalgia, and a sense of purpose. Balika Vadhu taught me and so many people out there, the power of choice and the courage it takes to rewrite your destiny. Years later, I return to Colors not as Anandi the Balika, but as Avika Gor the woman, ready to make the choice of a lifetime."
She added, "My fiancé, Milind, has been my partner in growth, my strongest ally, and the fellow dreamer who sees me beyond the roles and scripts. When he asked me to spend my life with him, I yelled out the easiest yes of my life. We're two imperfect people choosing to grow together, to challenge each other, and to build something real. I couldn't imagine a more fitting place to share that than here, where it all started. Announcing our wedding on Pati Patni Aur Panga is symbolic and personal. I've grown up in front of Colors' audience, and now, I want to celebrate this milestone with them too. To everyone who embraced me as the balika vadhu all those years ago, I now ask for your blessings as I become a real-life vadhu. This is my full-circle moment, and I'm so thankful I get to share it with the very people who shaped my journey."
Last month, the couple got engaged in a private ceremony and posted pictures from the ceremony on Instagram. Avika has been in a steady relationship with Milind for more than five years. She first introduced him to the public back in November 2020. For those unversed, Avika's fiance Milind is a social activist and entrepreneur, who graduated from IIM Ahmedabad before beginning his career as a software engineer at Infosys. He is also the founder of Camp Diaries, which is an NGO dedicated to empowering underprivileged children. In 2019, Milind participated as a contestant on MTV Roadies Real Heroes.
