Indian cricketer Shikhar Dhawan, celebrated for his flamboyant stroke play and magnetic personality, became the talk of the town at the Times Now Summit 2025. While his camaraderie with former teammates delighted fans, it was his presence alongside a mystery woman that truly set social media abuzz. The woman in question? Sophie Shine from Ireland. Their viral photos ignited speculation about Dhawan’s love life, sending fans into a frenzy.
Known for keeping his personal affairs under wraps, Shikhar Dhawan finally broke his silence when asked about moving on from his past relationship. In an honest and reflective moment, he shared: “Yes, I have moved on. I wouldn’t say I was unlucky in love—rather, my choices were shaped by inexperience. But now, with experience, I’ve gained wisdom. It was a learning curve with both good and bad moments, and I’m grateful for all of them.”
The conversation then took a lighthearted turn as Shikhar Dhawan was asked the million-dollar question—was he ready to fall in love again? With his trademark grin, he quipped, “I am always in love!”
Pressed further on whether he was dating someone, the cricket star skillfully dodged the question like a well-directed bouncer. “See, I know how to evade bouncers on the field, and I can do the same off it. You’re throwing one at me now, but I won’t get caught!” he laughed, refusing to spill any details.
When nudged with the Punjabi phrase, “Changi kudi hai?” (Is she a good girl?), Shikhar Dhawan offered a cryptic response: “For the wise, a hint is enough.” Even with multiple attempts to draw out a name, he remained tight-lipped, playfully declaring, “The most beautiful girl in this room is my girlfriend. Now, you figure it out!”
And as for the ultimate question—was a wedding on the horizon? Shikhar Dhawan remained as composed as ever.
“When I feel like it, I’ll do it. What’s the rush?” he said casually, confirming that no wedding date had been set.
While the cricketer continues to enjoy both his professional and personal life, fans will undoubtedly keep speculating about the identity of his special someone. But one thing is clear—just like his cricket, Shikhar Dhawan knows how to keep things thrilling!
