From his age and what he does to how he makes his way to the innermost circle of Ambanis and Bollywood, Orry has had the nation baffled with some basic questions for a long while now. 

 

At the recently-concluded, but not quite yet over Ambani wedding, as the glossy crowds comprising the likes of Bollywood’s Khans and Hollywood’s Kardashians rubbed shoulders with the likes of Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump, there’s one person whose name and face popped up like an insider.

 

 

Orhan Awatramani, or Orry (as he is fondly called by the innermost circles of Bollywood star kids) once again hit the limelight. 

 

Who is he? Almost everyone questioned, especially those not religiously clued into Bigg Boss or Page 3.

 

Orry, in the meanwhile, cheekily, addressed the same in one of his stories during the wedding days, “Another day of asking who is he?” 

Last year, when he suddenly appeared in almost every candid pic of B-town (off the sets )this question baffled the media and the paparazzi. 

 

The ‘who’ has lately given way to “how did he?” Today, the social media influencer boasts of a following of 1.4 million, with a very heavy count of verified celeb followers. 

 

An employee of Reliance Industries Limited, in some of his past interviews, he also claims to have “waited tables and worked as an actor, graphic designer.”

 

As for traditional education, he claims to be from a boarding school in Dhanushkodi and New York’s Parsons School of Design where he graduated in fine arts and communication. 

 

But nothing nearly explains the speculation and questions surrounding him, “Where did he come from? How is he friends with all the stars? What does he do?” Questions that he has addressed in numerous interviews but they still don’t quite explain his close ties to the Ambani family.

 

Recently seen in a very candid picture with both mother-daughter duos comprising Nita and Isha Ambani, Orry’s envied lifestyle and connections extend to celebs like Kylie Jenner, Paris Hilton, and Kanye West, with whom he’s been seen in the same frame while partying of course. 

 

He also had front-row access to the private concert by Justin Bieber hosted by the Ambani family. He also accompanied Isha Ambani to the MET Gala 2023. 

 

“Does he have any talent?” questions a netizen commenting on one of the posts shared by one of the guests at Ambani weddings. Despite being pointedly criticized for several things, Orry remains unfazed.

 

And unapologetic. During an appearance on Bigg Boss, he told host Salman Khan that he wanted to marry, “a rich girl.” When asked if he ever has to or how many times he swipes his credit card, he said that he doesn’t. “I don’t during the day or the night. Stars don’t pay, nobody gives me the bill. 

Instead, they take selfies with me and go.” He also calls himself a “liver” not the organ but a person who lives. “I never ever want to be asked what I do,” he said in one of his myriad interviews that now span across all the glossies. 

 

No age details but this is how much he makes

 

He refuses to reveal his age and has once called himself, “a borderline Gen Z.”

However, the influencer does not shy away from revealing his price point, especially after being signed on by Karan Johar’s Dharma Cornerstone Agency, post which he says he makes two appearances per day and charges Rs 25 lakh per appearance. Once again reasserting his earlier claim that he makes, “lakhs and lakhs.”  

 

There’s no denying that he epitomises and symbolises all that’s wrong with the current generation. Image over substance, connections over talent, but who knows he may be barely a few steps short of becoming a case study on “networking, social skills, social media and image management.”
