When Their Marriage Was About To Be Called Off, PUBG Came As Saviour For This Indian Couple

PUBG is currently the hottest game around - both on mobile and PC. But ever since it became popular, the game has been slammed or being too addictive. The government of Gujarat has already issued a directive to various primary schools to ban PUBG in school premises.

In the midst of all the negativity surrounding PUBG, comes a refreshing love story that blossomed because of the game.

Since August, a photo of a couple has been doing rounds on social media, in which a couple is seen posing with their smartphones with PUBG opened.

'Finally married my PUBG squad mate', read the caption of the viral Facebook post by Mohammed Rasheen.

Speaking to News18, Salwa Ahamed, the bride in the photo, reveals, ¡°We didn¡¯t actually meet over PUBG,¡± she says. ¡°It did, however, save our marriage which was going to be called off."

The couple, Salwa and Rasheen have been dating for 4 years and always had their own ups and downs. But things became really tricky when their relationship turned long distance.

Rasheen moved to UAE for a job while Salwa was in her final year of college.
