Cricketer Rinku Singh and Samajwadi Party MP Priya Saroj got engaged on Sunday in a star-studded ceremony packed with political bigwigs like Akhilesh Yadav and Jaya Bachchan. Also in attendance at the ceremony was bowling sensation Bhuvneshwar Kumar. But forget the VIPs¡ªwhat truly stole the spotlight was a viral dance video that¡¯s now fueling a meme storm online. In the now-viral video, as Priya grooves with full confidence and Rinku nervously shuffles along, the internet can¡¯t get enough of this hilariously relatable moment.
While the engagement had all the expected glitz and glam, it was Priya Saroj¡¯s spirited dance to the Bollywood track Gallan Goodiyan from the movie Dil Dhadakne Do that stole the spotlight. In the viral clips, the young MP is seen enjoying the moment with full confidence on the dance floor. Rinku, on the other hand, appeared a bit unsure, initially hanging back before reluctantly joining in. His hesitancy and shy moves became an unexpectedly relatable moment for fans.
Social media was quick to jump in with reactions, with one user writing, ¡°He might hit sixes on the cricket field, but on the dance floor, the MP stole the show."
Another added, ¡°Madam MP dances like a pro, while Rinku looks adorably shy.¡±
The meme fest didn¡¯t stop there¡ªmany viewers found the dynamic between the two hilarious and heartwarming. ¡°He¡¯s literally me at weddings,¡± said one person, while another quipped, ¡°When an introvert marries an extrovert¡ this is what it looks like.¡± "Rinku Singh is me at a crowded party, totally clueless and frozen," one mentioned.?
Shortly after the event, Rinku took to Instagram to share the big news with fans. Posting a few dreamy photos from the ceremony, he wrote, ¡°This day has been in our hearts for so long ¨C almost three years ¨C and the wait was worth every second. Engaged ¨C with full hearts and a forever to go.¡± The post instantly flooded with love from cricketers, teammates, and fans alike, all congratulating the couple on their special day.
While his personal life is making headlines, Rinku¡¯s professional game isn¡¯t far behind. Since the T20 World Cup, he¡¯s become a regular in the shortest format for India, though he¡¯s still waiting to lock in a spot in the ODI squad.
The left-hander has played two ODIs so far and boasts solid List-A stats, racking up 1,899 runs in 52 innings at an impressive average of 48.69.
