Well, like it is truly said, if you are in love, things like nationality, location, language do not matter to you. Ayyaz and Ekaterina proved that just right! The couple has been working hard to making things work and has begun learning each other’s language. Ayyaz shared with TOI in an interview, “I am learning Russian, while she is making an effort to learn Hindi. It surprises me and makes me happy at the same time to see the amount of effort she is putting in to learn the language, so that it’s not a barrier between us.” (Do Read: Nita Ambani Offers The Formal Engagement Card Of Akash Ambani And Shloka Mehta At Siddhivinayak)
It’s been two and a half months since Ayyaz and Ekaterina have started dating. Inspite of their language barrier, Ayyaz shares how they were introduced and what attracted them to each other. He shared, “We were introduced by a common friend and hit it off instantly. With time, we realised that we care for each other. What attracted me to Ekaterina besides her caring nature, was her humour. We may be from different countries, but our value system is quite similar and strong. Like me, she is also very close to her parents and upholds the values imbibed from them. Above all, we are honest, transparent and respect each other. I can be forthcoming and speak my heart out with her. She tells me that she likes me for my sincerity and dedication towards work. She says that I make her feel alive like nobody else.” (P.S., Swipe right to see an adorable video of the duo.)
Latest rumours were abuzz that the couple got engaged to each other on June 05, 2018 in Kolkata with close family members around. However, Ayyaz refuted all such rumours and said, "I don't remember when I got engaged. Now I am expecting them to say I have kids also. On a serious note let me tell you that I am not engaged. God knows from where this news came from. If I will get engaged, I will be open about it."
He further clarified, “I was very much in Mumbai and shooting for my show on the said day. In fact, I have been shooting since a week without a break. Ekaterina and I went to Kolkata on June 1 to meet my parents, but there was no engagement. Marriage is a beautiful event and I will be more than happy to announce it to the world. There will be nothing to hide if and when that happens. We are serious about this relationship and are giving it a try. I want everything to happen organically. She wanted to travel across the globe for work, but now, she has changed her mind. She loves India and has no qualms about leaving her country to stay with me.” (Checkout!
