Who is Milind Chandwani? Everything you need to know about Avika Gor’s fiance & former MTV Roadies contestant

Television actress Avika Gor, known for her work in Balika Vadhu and Sasural Simar Ka, recently shared the news of her engagement with longtime partner Milind Chandwani. The couple posted joyful photos of their roka ceremony on social media, along with a deeply emotional note from Avika that offered a personal peek into their journey.

Milind, who first caught public attention through MTV Roadies Real Heroes in 2019, is not just known for his reality TV stint. He’s also an IIM Ahmedabad graduate, former software engineer, and a dedicated social activist. His journey from the tech world to education and empowerment highlights his varied interests and commitments.

He began his professional career at Infosys but later chose to work in social development. Milind is the founder of Camp Diaries, an NGO that works towards providing creative and skill-based learning opportunities to underprivileged children. Beyond this, he has also worked as an assistant school principal, reflecting his continued engagement with grassroots education.

The couple’s story began in Hyderabad around 2020, when their friendship slowly evolved into a meaningful relationship. Taking to Instagram, Avika penned a note that summed up her whirlwind of emotions during the proposal. “He asked… I smiled, I cried (in that order)… and screamed the easiest YES of my life!” she wrote, adding, “He’s logic, calm, and a ‘let’s-carry-a-first-aid-kit-just-in-case’ kind of guy. I manifest drama. He manages it.”

She continued, “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.”

The announcement not only marks a milestone in their personal lives but also brings attention to Milind’s lesser-known yet impactful work in education and social change. While Avika is a household name in Indian television, Milind’s background reflects a grounded approach to social betterment—making their union both heartfelt and meaningful.
