NOKIA calls Avinash and Rubina...

The very-much-loved on screen pair on television, Avinash and Rubina from Zee's top ranked show Choti Bahu has caught the eyes of the mobile giants NOKIA to endorse their new series.

The portrayal of their innocent love has seemed to appeal not only to the masses but also the corporate world; and this is a great achievement for the duo given the fact that they have reached this enormous height of recognition in such a short span of time!!

According to sources from the sets, "The NOKIA representatives have been usual visitors to the sets of Choti Bahu now".

But the twist in the tale was that, Avinash and Rubina could not get time to shoot for the most coveted ad, and hence lost a golden opportunity.

Ask Avinash aka Dev about this, and he exclaims in a sad tone, "I am extremely sad that we were not able to do the Ad, but I convince myself that if not this, I will get a bigger opportunity in days to come".

Giving an explanation on this, the actor states, "Dates were a major problem for us. We are required to shoot for all the thirty days of a month, and our schedules are very hectic. So we just could not squeeze out time for the ad".

If sources are to be believed, there was yet another reason that stopped them from doing the ad, and that was Rubina Bilaik's health scare. It is heard that Rubina's weight loss spree seems to have had quite a drastic effect on her health leaving her unconscious many a times.

When we asked Avinash whether this was a major concern, he quips, "No, health is not a reason at all. The problem was solely with dates. Yes, it is right that Rubina has health problems and feels weak, but that is due to the stress involved in our work. We hardly get time to sleep and this makes it tough".

When we tried to ask him whether their amazing on screen chemistry is because of the great off screen relationship they share, Avinash did not mince words and said, "We both get along very well. We are comfortable working with each other, and this is what shows on screen".

Well, can we say, hats off to their chemistry both off screen and on screen??
