Actress Avika Gor, who rose to fame as a child actor in Balika Vadhu, is now engaged to her longtime boyfriend Milind Chandwani, a social activist who gained recognition on Roadies. The couple has been in a relationship since 2020. They met through a mutual friend in Hyderabad, where Avika fell in love with Milind at first sight — but he initially friend-zoned her.
On Wednesday, the actress shared photos from her dreamy proposal. Taking to her Instagram handle, Avika wrote, “He asked.. I smiled, I cried (in that order)…and screamed the easiest YES of my life! I’m full filmy — background score, slow-mo dreams, mascara running and all. He’s logic, calm, and “let’s carry a first-aid kit just in case.” I manifest drama. He manages it. And somehow, we just… Fit.”
She added, “So when he asked, the heroine in me took over — arms in the air, tears in my eyes, and zero network in my brain. Because real love? It may not always be perfect. But, It. Is. Magical.”

Talking about her love story with Milind, Avika shared that he friend-zoned her for six months, even though she had liked him since day one. In 2024, on Bharti Singh’s podcast, she recalled that when she first introduced Milind to her family, the topic of marriage came up instantly. Earlier, Avika had expressed her eagerness to get married, saying that if it were up to her, she would have tied the knot with Milind years ago.
“Mere dimaag mein ho chuki hai shaadi. But he was sensible enough. He told me, ‘You’re still 26 and I am 32. You take your time to work and see life,'” she said last year.
