Suresh Raina, a former Indian international cricketer, is widely regarded as one of the finest fielders in the game’s history. On August 15, 2020, the left-handed batsman declared his retirement from all forms of cricket. Suresh Raina married his ladylove, Priyanka Chaudhary, on April 3, 2015.
We all know that the wedding of one of the country’s most eligible bachelors broke a lot of hearts across the country. However, the youthful and attractive pair had also captured the hearts of many. So, because there’s a lot to share about this ideal wedding, let’s have a look.
Despite knowing each other since childhood, the pair lost touch after Priyanka Chaudhary’s family relocated to Punjab. In a recent interview, cricketer Suresh Raina conversed.
He said, “I have known Priyanka for long, but in the middle, I didn’t have time to be in touch with her. I remember meeting her at the airport for five minutes in 2008. She was flying back to Holland and I was going to Bangalore for an IPL game, and we met at the Delhi airport for just five minutes. Usse pehle (before airport meeting) main use bachpan mein mila tha. Priyanka’s father was my sports teacher in Ghaziabad and my mom was very close to her mother. I’ll call it more of an arranged marriage because our families have known each other for a long time.”
However, if you feel their marriage is a love story, stop right there. Raina’s and Priyanka’s marriage were fixed by the former mom and this is what the cricketer had to say on the same. “I was in Australia for the last five months. Mamma ne sab fix kiya hai. I didn’t know. Mom called me in Australia and told me that my marriage has been fixed with one of my childhood friends. Maine Kaha Kaun hai. Then I spoke to Priyanka on the phone.”
