Finding the ideal life partner is important, but there are times when a cricket match comes first. A Bengaluru-based programmer discovered this the hard way when he messaged a woman on a matrimonial site, only to be politely rejected by her cricket-loving father.
Rahul, a 28-year-old software engineer from Bengaluru, messaged Priyanka on Shaadi.com. Rahul introduced himself and offered a salary of ?70 lakhs per year. He concluded with a courteous message, "I believe we'd be very compatible."
"Hello, my name is Rahul, and I am a software developer from Bangalore. I saw your daughter's profile on Shaadi.com. "I am currently earning 70LPA CTC and believe we would be a good fit," he wrote.?
Rahul received a response from Priyanka's father, who informed him that they could discuss more after the match."Hello, thank you! I'm Priyanka's father. The father said, "Let's talk after the match."?
Naina, Rahul's cousin, posted a screenshot of the interaction on X. In less than a day, it had over half a million views on the social media platform, causing much laughter among viewers.?
"Uncle has his priorities straight. "Talking can happen after India beats England," one user commented, alluding to India's 68-run victory over England in the T20 World Cup 2024 semi-final.
