A mysterious Instagram post featuring him with actress Jiyaa Shankar led fans to believe the two had secretly gotten engaged. Social media quickly flooded with congratulatory messages and questions about their relationship.
The viral post that fueled engagement rumours
On February 5 Elvish shared a picture holding Jiyaa’s hand which appeared to have a sparkling diamond ring. His caption read “Gave love another chance and I found my” and he tagged Jiyaa Shankar. Fans immediately assumed this was an announcement of their engagement. The post went viral spreading rapidly across Instagram Twitter and other social media platforms as viewers discussed the couple’s alleged secret romance.


The actual truth behind the post
Despite the widespread speculation Elvish and Jiyaa are not engaged. The Instagram post was actually a promotional teaser for their upcoming project the second season of the dating reality show Engaged: Roka Ya Dhokha. The first season of the show hosted by Uorfi Javed and Harsh Gujral featured contestants competing in romantic and entertaining challenges leading up to engagements.

Elvish and Jiyaa will host the second season set to premiere on February 14. The teaser cleverly used the engagement theme to grab attention which led fans to misinterpret it as a real-life announcement and now the trailer has been officially dropped.
