For those who do not know, Rinku smashed five consecutive sixes off Yash Dayal’s bowling to fetch a phenomenal victory in the last over. He further revealed that Priya’s father did not know him until that knock, even though he was not familiar with cricket. This was the moment when Rinku felt that it could be easier for both people from the marriage prospect. Rinku Singh on Raj Shamani Podcast said: “So she (Priya) was crying on the phone. Saachi didi (Nitish Rana’s wife) told me she was emotional. It was such a big day, five sixes were hit, people had started to know me. So I was feeling that maybe things could become easier. About marriage and all that. At that time her father didn’t know who Rinku Singh was. He didn’t know anything. He had no interest in cricket. Yes. So he didn’t have that much idea.” The 27-year-old batter further revealed how this knock transformed his life and it helped him gain overnight fame. He further said: “That moment for me was life-changing. All the hard work I had done in my life, I got the reward in that match. My followers, Instagram followers started increasing, recognition came, from there everything changed. Overnight everything changed. Name, followers, everything was given by the One above that day.” On the same podcast, Rinku adds that it was not easy at the beginning, but eventually everyone was convinced of their relationship and marriage. He added that Priya’s family played a crucial role and provided a lot of support. He added: “Slowly, slowly, everyone started to come to know that yes, we are in a relationship. First Priya’s sister found out. Didi gave a lot of support. Then her two sisters, Vijay Lakshmi and the other, found out. Her brother gave a lot of support. Nice. I didn’t think they would agree so easily. Then yes, after that there were talks. Her brother-in-law, jija ji, he was the main one who explained to her father. He said, this is how it is, in cricket this much money is earned. Because a father, when he sends his daughter, he thinks ahead, like what does the boy earn, what does he not earn. Seeing that, he sends his daughter. So he was confirming how much money I earn, how much not, all that. Then he said, he is a cricketer, he earns good money. So then they agreed, but not very easily.”
