Kuldeep Yadav Gets Engaged to Childhood Friend Vanshika; Private Ceremony Picture Goes Viral
Indian cricketer and left-arm spinner Kuldeep Yadav got engaged to his childhood friend Vanshika in an intimate ceremony held in Lucknow on June 4. The private affair was graced by close family members and a handful of close friends, including fellow Uttar Pradesh cricketer Rinku Singh.
The ceremony, held at a discreet venue in the city, featured a traditional ring exchange between the couple. Vanshika, who hails from Shyam Nagar, currently works with the Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC). A picture from the event, showing the couple during the ceremony, quickly went viral on social media, drawing blessings and love from fans, celebrities, and teammates alike.
Kuldeep, who turned 30 recently, was seen in action for Delhi Capitals in IPL 2025, finishing the season with 15 wickets in 14 matches at an impressive economy rate of 7.07. His team ended fifth in the points table, narrowly missing the playoffs.
Apart from IPL, Kuldeep remains a core part of India’s international cricket setup. He was instrumental in India’s victories at both the 2024 T20 World Cup and the 2025 Champions Trophy, consistently delivering with the ball in pressure situations.
Fans of the cricketer flooded social media with congratulatory messages after the news broke, praising the spinner not only for his on-field brilliance but also wishing him a happy beginning off the field.
