Television actor and internet influencer Jiyaa Shankar, known for her role in the reality show Bigg Boss OTT 2, is rumoured to be engaged to influencer Elvish Yadav.

Key Points

  • One the hands is seen wearing a massive diamond ring.
  • Elvish's caption says, 'Gave love another chance and I found my (heart emoji).'

With 3.7 million followers on her Instagram, Jiyaa Shankar's social media offers a sneak peek into her lifestyle, which involves international vacations to scenic locales, fun photoshoots and lots of candid captures.

'Cause drapes are boring, how about an embellished single shoulder cape that doubles as a drape? Ahead of the wedding season, Jiyaa shows you how to do functional fashion in style.

 

Shimmer and layering -- Jiyaa makes the most of her winter outing without compromising on her outfit...

 

Styled in the nauvari (nine-yard drape), Jiyaa shows you how you can stand out at a wedding.

 

The combination of black and gold suits Jiyaa and she accessorises it beautifully with chandelier earrings and minimal makeup.

 

If simplicity were a trend, Jiyaa would ace it in this cute white dress.

 

Notice those fancy red sneakers? Comfy, standout and funky too.

 

Who says beachwear can't be fun? Jiyaa breaks the monotony of blue with a printed sarong worn as a skirt.

 

Jiyaa styles her hair in waves to match the scalloped hem of her dupatta. The kohl-laden eyes and minimal choice of jewellery keep the attention focused on the outfit.

 

We love how she embraces her Indian roots in this ajrakh-printed ensemble; the gold border is a nice touch.
