Elli is an actress of Swedish descent who is already set to make her debut in Bollywood with "Mickey Virus".
"There is this foreigner girl with blue eyes, I think Salman is going to make her a heroine," the 55-year-old said here Wednesday at the birthday bash of Yogesh Lakhani, CMD of Bright Outdoor Media Pvt. Ltd.
Meanwhile, Shakti also feels that "Bigg Boss" is a good place to grow one's career and that this might mark contestant Armaan Kohli's comeback.
"It ('Bigg Boss') should be a casting ground. Those who have struggled to enter the industry, if they can get a chance to showcase their talent through 'Bigg Boss' and if their careers can rise, then why not," Shakti said.
"I feel this might be Armaan Kohli's comeback, such a strong and good man. I wish everyone all the best," he added.
Armaan is the son of producer-director Rajkumar Kohli and has featured in films like "Qahar", "Dushmani" and "Jaani Dushman: Ek Anokhi Kahani."
"Bigg Boss Saath 7" airs on Colors TV.
