Meet Milind Chandwani: The Man Behind the Mission
Milind Chandwani isn’t just Avika’s fiancé—he’s also a dedicated changemaker. A graduate from the prestigious IIM Ahmedabad, Milind began his career as a software engineer with Infosys. However, his passion led him to pursue a more meaningful path.

His dynamic career has included stints as a school principal and a reality TV contestant on MTV Roadies Real Heroes in 2019, showcasing both his leadership and versatility.
From Friendship to Forever: Avika Gor and Milind’s Journey
Avika and Milind’s love story began in 2020 in Hyderabad, where they were introduced by mutual friends. What started as a strong friendship slowly blossomed into romance—though Milind initially kept things firmly in the friend zone for the first six months. Avika has humorously admitted that she was “married to him in [her] head” well before he realized his own feelings. Their bond grew steadily, built on mutual respect, shared values, and a deep understanding of each other’s worlds.
A Picture-Perfect Proposal and a ‘Filmy’ YES
Sharing the magical proposal moment on Instagram, Avika described the emotional whirlwind with her signature charm. “He asked… I smiled, I cried (in that order)… and screamed the easiest YES of my life!” she wrote. Painting a vivid picture of her dreamy moment, she called herself “full filmy,” complete with a dramatic backdrop, slow-motion visions, and running mascara. She affectionately described Milind as the “logic and calm” to her “drama,” perfectly summing up their complementary personalities.
As they embark on this new chapter together, fans can’t help but celebrate the couple’s heartfelt connection—a real-life love story filled with warmth, growth, and unwavering support.
