Indian cricketer Kuldeep Yadav married his childhood sweetheart, Vanshika Chadha, in a grand ceremony at Mussoorie, Uttarakhand, on March 14, 2026.
The picturesque hill station set the stage for a wedding that quickly went viral with stunning photos and lively videos.
The celebrations followed India’s successful T20 World Cup 2026 title defence, adding joy to Kuldeep’s big day. Pre-wedding festivities began on March 13 with Haldi and Mehendi rituals at a luxury resort. Family, friends, and cricketing stars joined the fun, with Yuzvendra Chahal stealing the spotlight through playful antics. Rinku Singh and coach T Dilip also added energy to the events. Singer Bismil performed at a special Sufi night, dedicating shayaris to the couple.
Kuldeep and Vanshika’s love story began in Kanpur, where they grew up as neighbours. Vanshika supported Kuldeep since his U19 cricket journey, balancing her own career at LIC and studies in Melbourne. The couple announced their engagement in Lucknow on June 4, 2025. The wedding, initially planned for November 2025, shifted to accommodate Kuldeep’s cricket schedule.
Videos of the baraat procession, Chahal’s lively dance, and the couple’s radiant moments have flooded social media. Fans admired the bride and groom in traditional attire amid floral decorations. A grand reception is scheduled for March 17 at Hotel Centrum in Lucknow, with star guests expected from cricket, politics, and business.
