Film with Salman Khan will happen at the right time: Elli Avram

Her association with Salman Khan is much-talked about and Swedish Greek actress Elli Avram says she would love to work with the Bollywood superstar soon but only when they are approached for the right film.

Elli, 25, rose to fame after participating on the seventh season of celebrity reality show “Bigg Boss”.

It was during the show that Elli got to know Salman, who was the series’ host. The 49-year-old “Bajrangi Bhaijaan” star’s fondness for her was not hidden from anyone.

“I would really want a film with Salman to happen. I really admire him and I am sure it is going to happen when the right time comes,” Elli told PTI on the sidelines of the Lakme Fashion Week.

The actress, who is now based in Mumbai, made her Bollywood debut with “Mickey Virus” in 2013 alongside TV host-actor Manish Paul.

She is currently gearing for the release of “Kis Kisko Pyaar Karu” in which she is paired opposite comedian-turned-actor Kapil Sharma. The film will mark the Bollywood debut of the “Comedy Nights With Kapil” star.

“Promotions for ‘Kis Kisko Pyaar Karu’ are keeping me very busy. The movie will release on September 25. I hope everyone watches it,” she said.

Elli said shooting for the film was a laugh riot thanks to Kapil, who kept the mood light on the sets. The actress plays the comedian’s love interest in the film.

“It was a great fun working with Kapil. I used to laugh my lungs out during the shooting of the film. Kapil is so spontaneous. He will come up with things, he kept pulling my leg and constantly made fun of my Hindi,” Elli said.

Directed by filmmaker duo Abbas Mustan, the movie also stars Simran Kaur Mundi, Manjari Phadnis Sai Lokur, Varun Sharma, Supriya Pathak, Manoj Joshi and Arbaaz Khan.
