Shubman Gill, India’s rising cricket star, is often in the news for his sharp batting skills and charismatic personality. But off the field, the 24-year-old also grabs headlines for his rumored relationship with Sara Tendulkar, daughter of cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar. While neither has ever confirmed or denied their alleged romance, social media activity suggests a tale of hot and cold — and the latest twist? The duo has unfollowed each other on Instagram once again.
A Social Media Snub or Something More?
This isn’t the first time Sara and Shubman have unfollowed each other, adding more fuel to an already long-standing rumor mill. Their back-and-forth digital interaction (or lack thereof) has often sent fans into a frenzy. From likes and cheeky comments to complete radio silence, the pair have kept fans guessing about the true nature of their relationship.
As of now, both Shubman and Sara have no trace of each other on their Instagram following list. Not only are they not following each other anymore, but there isn’t a single picture or story that links the two — at least publicly. This move has sparked yet another wave of speculation about whether things have officially ended between them or if this is just another temporary break in their undefined relationship.
Is There Any Truth Behind the Romance?
In early 2025, Reddit threads and gossip columns flared up with claims that Shubman wasn’t really invested in his relationship with Sara. A now-deleted Reddit post quoted an alleged friend of Shubman’s claiming that the cricketer was simply “chilling” and dating multiple women, mainly abroad. According to the post, Shubman was never serious about Sara and used the public’s fascination with their bond to maintain a certain image.
While these rumors were unverified and lack any solid proof, they didn’t stop fans from speculating. The lack of photos together, combined with their decision to unfollow each other, only deepens the mystery.
Ed Sheeran’s Blunt Question Goes Viral
Adding to the confusion was an interaction between Shubman Gill and international pop star Ed Sheeran during the latter’s visit to India. In a light-hearted segment hosted by comedian Tanmay Bhat, Ed asked Shubman point-blank whether he had a girlfriend. Shubman, stone-faced and without hesitation, responded with a “No.” Tanmay couldn’t hold back his laughter, while Ed jokingly said, “On the market, guys.” The moment quickly went viral, with fans interpreting it as the final nail in the coffin for the ‘ShubSara’ ship.
Enter: Khushpreet Singh?
There were even whispers that Sara was dating someone else — Khushpreet Singh, who happens to be a close friend of Shubman Gill. Although the duo never confirmed anything, fans noted Sara and Khushpreet being spotted together at multiple events. Once again, there was no official word from either party, but the optics left fans curious.
Remember the Engagement Rumors?
Back in 2024, a tweet went viral claiming that Shubman and Sara were getting engaged — with none other than Sachin Tendulkar himself set to make the announcement. The claim turned out to be a hoax, but for a few hours, the internet buzzed with the possibility of cricket’s royal couple making it official. Alas, nothing materialized, and the duo remained mum.
What Does It All Mean?
Despite all the speculation, the truth remains unknown. Shubman and Sara have never confirmed a relationship, yet their every move on social media continues to spark wild theories. The recent Instagram unfollow has simply added another chapter to this curious saga.
While Shubman continues to perform on the pitch and Sara maintains a strong presence on social media and in public circles, one thing is clear — their lives will likely remain entwined in the public eye, whether they like it or not.
What do you think about Shubman Gill and Sara Tendulkar unfollowing each other again? Is it just a social media glitch or the end of a rumored romance that never quite saw the light of day? Let us know in the comments!
