Elvish Yadav's sudden announcement with Jiya Shankar was no co-incidence; the duo is certainly teaming up for Engaged season 2 - Watch the video clip!

A sudden announcement from Elvish Yadav took the social media by storm on Thursday, February 5, 2026. He tagged Jiya Shankar and spoke about finding love again while she flaunted a diamond ring. Of course, the announcement left netizens confused, mainly because Jiya was linked to Bigg Boss OTT 2 runner-up and Elvish's competitor Abhishek Malhan at one point. Turns out, it was a teaser for what was to come. Elvish and Jiya have now replaced Uorfi Javed in Engaged season 2.

Elvish Yadav took his fans by surprise after speaking about finding love a second time, and tagging his Bigg Boss OTT 2 co-contestant Jiya Shankar. While many assumed it was a promotion for a music video, a recent announcement confirmed that the two are now a part of Engaged season 2.
While there's no certain answer for why Uorfi Javed is not a part of Engaged season 2, it could have to do with the fact that Uorfi is already associated with a show that has a similar concept. She is currently seen as the 'troublemaker' on Splitsvilla X6 with Nia Sharma. Since the concept of Splitsvilla and Engaged are almost similar, Uorfi might have decided to sit out for season 2 of her show, Engaged.
Elvish Yadav has been constantly making the buzz for The 50, despite not being a part of the reality show, because Maxtern took his name on the reality show and recalled their fight. Elvish's gang members, Achint and Lakshay Kaushik charged at Maxtern for the remark. Achint even got evicted for physically hurting Maxtern. The show also sees Lovekesh Kataria and Rajat Dalal, both of whom are closer to Elvish in real life.
Apart from Engaged season 2, Elvish is also a part of Laughter Chefs season 3. Both the shows are currently streaming on JioHotstar via OTTplay Premium.
