Who is Vanshika Chadha?

Vanshika Chadha has been Kuldeep Yadav's childhood friend, whom he got married to last night in a private ceremony at a luxury resort in Mussoorie, Uttarakhand. The couple had earlier got engaged on June 4, 2025. Vanshika, who grew up in Kanpur’s Shyam Nagar area just a few kilometres from Kuldeep’s home, later moved to Melbourne for higher studies and earned a Master’s degree.

She currently works in an administrative role at Life Insurance Corporation of India. Known for maintaining a low public profile, Vanshika stays away from social media. The wedding was initially planned for November 2025 but was postponed due to Kuldeep’s commitments during India’s 2026 T20 World Cup campaign.

Star-studded reception awaits on March 17

The newly married couple is set to host a grand wedding reception on March 17, 2026, at Hotel Centrum in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, days after their private wedding in Mussoorie. The reception, expected to host a large gathering, will see prominent figures from cricket, politics, and entertainment. Indian stars like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, and Suryakumar Yadav are likely to attend, alongside legends such as MS Dhoni, Sunil Gavaskar, and Suresh Raina.

Senior administrators, including Jay Shah and India head coach Gautam Gambhir, are also expected, with Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath among the political dignitaries invited.
