Ishan Kishan has grabbed headlines off the field after his grandfather publicly confirmed the India wicketkeeper-batter’s relationship status. The development comes days after Kishan’s match-winning performance against Pakistan in the ongoing ICC Men's T20 World Cup. Speaking to news agency ANI, family members said they fully support the cricketer’s personal choices. The confirmation has effectively ended long-running speculation around his relationship. Kishan is reportedly dating model Aditi Hundia.

Anurag Pandey, Kishan’s grandfather, said the family would stand by whatever decision the cricketer makes regarding marriage. He described Hundia as Kishan’s girlfriend and emphasised that children’s happiness should be respected. Pandey’s remarks mark the first public acknowledgement from the family on the matter. The statement quickly gained traction on social media platforms. Fans have widely reacted to the revelation.

The personal update comes amid Kishan’s strong return to international cricket. The left-handed batter recently smashed 77 off 41 balls in India’s commanding 61-run victory over Pakistan. His innings was widely praised for composure on a challenging Colombo surface. The knock also highlighted his resurgence after nearly two years away from the national side. Kishan had previously lost his central contract during that phase.

Looking ahead, Kishan maintained that the team’s job in the tournament is far from finished. He said the focus must quickly shift to upcoming matches rather than dwelling on the Pakistan win. The wicketkeeper-batter emphasised the importance of staying grounded despite the big victory. India supporters will now be watching both his on-field form and off-field developments closely. Kishan’s comeback story continues to gather momentum on multiple fronts.
