Rinku Singh, 26, has carved a name for himself as one of India’s rising T20 stars and is a fan-favourite in the IPL, known for his clutch performances with the Kolkata Knight Riders. His engagement marks a personal milestone amid his growing stature in Indian cricket.
His fiancée, Priya Saroj, aged just 25, created history earlier this year by becoming one of the youngest MPs in the country. Representing the Machhlishahr constituency in Uttar Pradesh, Priya made a significant political debut by defeating BJP candidate BP Saroj with a margin of over 35,000 votes in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
Priya, daughter of veteran politician Tufani Saroj, holds a law degree from Amity University, Noida, and has previously practiced at the Supreme Court of India.
