On Monday, another member of the Indian cricket team, Jasprit Bumrah, married Sanjana Ganesan, ending his status as an “eligible bachelor.” While the latter is best understood for being a sports broadcaster, which played a role in their romance, a lesser-known detail about her is that she was once a model.
Not only that, but she was also a contestant on Splitsvilla, a dating reality show. While Jasprit Bumrah kept his romance private, Sanjana Ganesan’s popularity grew when stories of their wedding began to circulate. She was a contestant on MTV’s Splitsvilla in the seventh season in 2014, according to some on social media.
While some reminisced about the occurrences, others posted videos of them. Due to an injury, Sanjana had to leave the program. She was matched with Ashwini, another contender. She returned for the Grand Finale, and the camera captured moments from her choice to depart to another when she was seen seething and getting emotional at the ‘King’ for a sexist remark.
After missing the ongoing T20Is, Jasprit Bumrah was dropped from the India squad for the Fourth Test against England. He could return for the ODIs. She made headlines for a variety of reasons during the show, and she later began dating her co-contestant, Ashwini Koul. Due to an arm injury, she was forced to withdraw. Sunny Leone and Nikhil Chinapa hosted the season.
