Fast Bowler Irfan Pathan to marry Shivangi
It's a decision that could break a million hearts. 'Baroda bomber' Irfan Pathan (24) is set to marry long-time friend Shivangi Dev, daughter of an Indian diplomat in Australia. Pathan, who has known Shivangi for six years, told TOI their parents had finally given their nod to the wedding.
"We know each other really well now," said a blushing Irfan, who first met his lady love in Canberra in 2003. The younger Pathan, however, is sure of the venue. "It will take some time but certainly in Vadodara. It will be a traditional wedding," he said.
TOI had first reported about Irfan's relationship with Shivangi, in March last year. Irfan had first met her during a practice match.
Talking about their first meeting, Pathan told TOI: "She was very shy and didn't talk much during our first meeting. It took quite some time before we got comfortable with each other and got into a relationship," Irfan said.
So, who proposed first? "I was the one who proposed to her about three years ago. I was in Vadodara when I called her up and asked her if she would marry me," he said. She said yes.
Initially, there was some resistance from both families. "Now, our families have accepted our relationship," he added.
Shivangi, who has visited Irfan's home twice, works as a chartered accountant in Australia and also teaches dance to children. "She is a very good dance teacher and has a major fan following in her dance school," said Irfan who has visited her school.
