Elli AvrRam Reflects On Salman Khan’s “Biwi Banna Chahte Ho Ya Heroine” Remark

Speaking about how she has never really seen herself as a glamorous girl, Elli AvrRam recalled Salman Khan joking on Bigg Boss after seeing her cleaning the kitchen and washing utensils, asking, “Do you want to be a wife or a heroine?” Responding to this, Elli Avram said, “I remember once also when I had just moved here, and I was doing safai ghar ke andar and kuch gir gaya floor pe, and I immediately took everything and all ki jis tareeke se aapko saaf karna hai. And there was this one banda who was like, ‘Yeh kya kar rahe ho aap? Haan? You want to be a heroine, na? Why are you doing this safai?’ I’m like, but how does that matter? “

The Bigg Boss fame added,“You can also be an actress, you can also be glamorous, and you can also be a person who loves to be at home, to clean, to cook, to take care of a family, a person, a partner, or your parents. You can do both. It’s not like either I am a heroine or I am ghar ki bahu. You know, aisa thodi hota hai. Like dono cheez bhi ho sakta hai. And everything exists.”

Elli AvrRam Opens Up On People Questioning Her Bigg Boss Decision

Further opening up about how people often question her decision to enter Bigg Boss due to the negativity and constant fights in the house, Elli responded, “Main hamesha yeh kehti thi ki sabse bada Bigg Boss iss duniya mein hai. Bigg Boss ke bahar hai. Aur Bigg Boss zyada achha hai, pata hai kyun? Kyunki Bigg Boss ke andar, yeh reality show joh hai na, wahan pe at least aapko maloom padta hai ki kaun aapke peeche kya-kya bolta hai aur kya-kya karta hai. Matlab insaan ki asliyat aapko at least saamne se, proof ke saath milta hai. Lekin yeh asli duniya joh hai, yeh asli Bigg Boss joh hai, wahan pe aapko 100% kabhi nahi maloom padega ki kaun actually kya karta hai aapke peeche. Kaun actually kiske saath asli dost hai? Kaun actually kya-kya bolta hai aapke peeche? So Bigg Boss is just a reality show, just an experience.”

Elli Reveals Why She Addresses Salman Khan As ‘Ji’

Clarifying why she calls Salman Khan ‘Salman Ji’, Elli said, “I never knew that a lot of people feel a little bit offended when they are being called ‘ji’. When I first studied Devanagari at Stockholm University before moving to India, because I wanted to prepare myself to know how to read and write in Hindi and speak as basic Hindi as possible, and there we were being taught that you address people you respect with ‘ji’ and all of that, and you should always say ‘ji’, woh bolna padta hai. So I was like, okay, theek hai. “

Elli continued, “And then I was like, yeh matlab shabd joh hai na ‘ji’, mujhe bahut achha lagta hai. Like, I find it very cute. Haan, ‘ji’. So I love it whenever somebody says ‘Elli ji’. Okay. It sounds so cute, you know, I really love it. So I would always use it like that, out of respect and love. I think it’s a nice thing. Phir baad mein mujhe aisa maloom pada hai ki, you know, some people, they will start to think that they are coming across as very old, when you add ‘ji’ behind the name. And I was like, achha aise hota hai? Like my intention with anybody has never been that — to make you feel that you are an aunty or uncle. I just say it out of love and respect. And like I said, I love it when people say ‘Elli ji’.”
