Who are Ashish and Elli – A Fast Review
Ashish Chanchlani: The King of Comedy on YouTube
Ashish Chanchlani is a name people associate with laugh out loud content, has over 30 Million subscribers on YouTube. He is known for his relatable sketches, comedy parodies, and exaggerated storytelling, Ashish is undoubtedly one of India’s most well-loved digital creators. Beyond his comedic performances, he has produced short films, worked with Bollywood stars, and has maintained his personal life somewhere a little more low-key than many influencers – until now.
Elli AvrRam: The Glam Diva with a Global Touch
What originally seems like a combination of luck and talent can often be difficult to pin down, and it certainly seems to hold true for all that is Elli AvrRam. Born in Sweden with roots in Greece, she has truly made her mark in the Indian entertainment space as a talent to keep an eye on. Her appearances in a few Bollywood films (Mickey Virus, Malang) known to mention, along with her more recent dazzling dance appearances in some blockbuster chartbusters (Chamma Chamma), gives us the definition of someone that combines beauty and grace with glamour. She has an understated yet elegant fashion sense and an elusive character in the public domain, allowing for a more captivating following and discussion regarding the images of her persona.
The Viral Image Needn’t Speak for Itself
It can all begin and end with a single Instagram post.
Ashish, a confidential but successful voice and head to the production of what we can presume is a meme/talk-influencer account, posted a shuttered picture of him with Elli, both in black colour garments in a voyeuristic quiet state. No caption, no commotion. Just a simple heart emoji.
Elli then reposted the exact image on her story space with the word “Us” and a shooting star.
The image drew in millions in views and outputs: viral hashtags and mentions from Bollywood entertainment portals from across India!
