Some matches are made in heaven and the same can be said about India captain Rohit Sharma and his wife Ritika Sajdeh. Sharma, who spent his childhood in Borivali, bought a house worth a whopping INR 30 crore just months after getting engaged to Sajdeh in 2015. Sharma’s professional journey is nothing short of an inspiration for many.

Former Indian captain Virat Kohli and actor-producer wife Anushka Sharma, former India all-rounder Yuvraj Singh, and Bollywood actors such as Abhishek Bachchan, Akshay Kumar etc. are some of Sharma’s neighbours in the area.
Sharma calls Sajdeh his “lucky charm” and gives her a lot of credit for his success. Sajdeh, who usually cheers her husband from the stands, is often seen keeping her fingers crossed till the time he is batting in a cricket match. Sharma has posted a lot of tweets in the past praising her wife. For the unversed, Sajdeh is a sports event manager by profession and both of them met during an ad shoot.
Generally if it’s someone’s birthday you’ll go try and be with them but that’s not the case with my Mrs, poor thing always travels to me on occasions and makes sure the travel time is well spent, very lucky to have a wife like her. Happy birthday love 💖 @ritssajdeh
