Suresh Raina, who is called ‘Mr. IPL’ of Indian cricket, had a dazzling life on the field, but his love story is equally filmy and interesting. Raina was known for his agile fielding and aggressive batting, but he was very shy when it came to expressing his feelings. The love story of him and Priyanka Chaudhary started from childhood friendship and it took many turns to reach marriage.
childhood friendship but long distance
When Suresh Raina used to take cricket training, his coach’s daughter Priyanka also used to attend the same academy. A sweet friendship definitely blossomed between the two in their childhood, but due to career and studies, their paths diverged. Priyanka went to Netherlands for studies and Raina got busy in cricket. There was no contact between the two, but they kept getting updates about each other’s lives through social media.
5 minute meeting at airport changed fate
In the year 2008, a coincidence changed the lives of both of them. Raina was going from Delhi to Bangalore and Priyanka was coming from Netherlands. They met at Delhi airport for only 5 minutes, but these 5 minutes awakened old feelings in the hearts of both of them. This meeting was so special that both of them started talking and the same conversation gradually turned into love.
journey from dating to marriage
After understanding each other for about seven years, both of them decided to get married in 2015. The special thing was that there was no problem in the marriage. Priyanka’s father knew Raina from the first day and by then Raina had become India’s star cricketer. Raina’s family also liked this relationship and the marriage was easily fixed.
Proposed after traveling 40 hours after leaving the World Cup
Raina had told in an old interview that his plan to propose for marriage was no less than a film. At that time he was playing the World Cup in Australia and Priyanka was in England. To reach there, Raina changed two flights and traveled for about 40 hours. After this he proposed Priyanka for marriage.
