Mumbai, Sep 30 (IANS): TV host and actor Manish Paul says he is watching "Bigg Boss Saath 7" only because of contestant Elli Avram, his co-actor in his debut film "Mickey Virus". He also feels that the actress has the support of Salman Khan, the host of the show.

"I am watching the show only because of her. She is my co-star and is promoting the film very well. Salman Khan is also supporting her," Manish said here in an interview.

"There is a lot of excitement and people are really liking her," he added.

Meanwhile, Manish also wants viewers to watch the film if they like Elli in the show.

"People who are watching Elli should go and watch my film and this is most important for me. Elli is promoting the film from inside the 'Bigg Boss' house and I am moving around the cities to promote my film. So I think the most important is that people should watch the film," said Manish, who is playing the lead role of a hacker in the film.

Set in the backdrop of Delhi, the film is based on hacking and is written and directed by Saurabh Varma.
