Argus News - “We Are Ready To Accept”: Ishan Kishan’s Grandfather On Aditi Hundia

New Delhi, Feb 17: After nearly two years out of the national side and losing his central contract, 27-year-old Ishan Kishan has made his comeback. From being sidelined and overlooked to becoming a match-winner again, his story reflects resilience, reinvention, and the hunger to prove himself at the highest level.

While his sensational 77 off 40 balls grabbed the headlines, Ishan Kishan found himself in the spotlight off the field as his grandfather revealed his relationship status.

During an interview with news agency ANI, Kishan's grandfather, Anurag Pandey, confirmed that his grandson is currently dating model Aditi Hundia.

"Whoever Ishan chooses to marry, I fully accept-his decision is mine," he told ANI. "We are ready to accept whoever Ishan Kishan wants to marry. Aditi is his girlfriend. She is a model. One should accept what makes children happy."

India 175 for 7 (Kishan 77, Suryakumar 32, Ayub 3-25) beat Pakistan 114 (Usman 44, Hardik 2-16, Bumrah 2-17, Varun 2-17, Axar 2-29) by 61 runs.

Kishan's blistering 77 against Pakistan not only secured India’s Super Eights berth but also drew praise from legends like Anil Kumble, who noted Kishan’s ability to convert starts into big scores—something he struggled with earlier in his career. His return also coincided with India fielding a top-three of left-handers (Abishek Sharma, Kishan, Tilak Varma) for the first time in T20I history during the 2026 World Cup opener against the USA.
