Bhojpuri actor Neelam Giri, currently making waves inside Bigg Boss 19, has found herself at the center of a storm outside the house.

A set of old photos showing Neelam Giri with sindoor on her forehead and posing alongside a man wearing a garland have gone viral, sparking whispers about whether the actor is secretly married.

The timing couldn’t have been more dramatic. Inside the Bigg Boss 19 house, Neelam Giri has been openly bonding with singer Amaal Mallik, even flirting with him on camera.

So naturally, the photos sent social media into overdrive with fans questioning her marital status.

The truth behind the viral images

But here’s the catch—the images are not from Neelam Giri’s personal life at all. They are stills from her Bhojpuri film Ghar Parivaar, where she starred opposite Parvesh Lal Yadav. The sindoor, the garland, the entire setup—it was all part of her role, not reality.

While some of the pictures are of her sister Nisha Giri Das, who looks exactly like her.

Despite clarifications surfacing, the rumours spread quickly, with fans debating her real-life relationships. For many, it was just another example of how quickly on-screen moments can blur with real life, especially when a celebrity is locked inside the Bigg Boss house with no way to respond directly.

From TikTok fame to Bigg Boss spotlight

Born on June 19, 1997, in Bhutan and raised in Ballia, Uttar Pradesh, Neelam Giri grew up with two younger twin brothers and an elder sister. Her father ran a hardware shop, and her early fame came through TikTok videos. One of those videos caught the attention of Bhojpuri superstar Pawan Singh, who cast her in the hit song Dhaniya Hamaar Naya Badi Ho.

From there, Neelam Giri transitioned to films, debuting in Babul (2021) before acting in Ijjat Ghar, Tun Tun, and Kalakand. She also became a popular face in Bhojpuri music videos like Lagelu Jaan Maar Ho, Garnetar, and Bedardi Balam.

Now, with Bigg Boss 19, she’s becoming a household name nationwide. One lighthearted moment where Awez Darbar teased her saying, “chai bana aur sabko pila” (go make tea for everyone), even went viral after fans remixed it online.
