They first met in 2005, and ever since, this is one love story that has never ceased to fuel speculation. Now Mumbai Mirror has learnt of an impending wedding from a close friend of the couple, “Zaheer Khan and Isha Sharvani have decided to tie the knot at the end of March. The wedding is just two-and-a-half months away.”
Soon after India won the World Cup 2011 and Zaheer emerged highest wicket taker of the tournament, his proud parents were insistent on getting him married. And turned out, their wish was his command.
“Recently, their families met and finalised the wedding details. A final decision will be taken when Zaheer returns from the ongoing Australian tour. If they don’t marry in March, they will do so in October. But they are keen on March,” their friend revealed, adding that the reception is slated to be a grand affair, with the Indian cricket team and quite a few B-town personalities on the guest list.
In 2005, Isha was performing when the touring Australian team was leaving India, and that’s when they met. It wasn’t exactly love at first sight but they kept meeting at social dos, till one day, Zaheer proposed. Isha was totally smitten by the cricketer, and they got into a strong relationship for two years till they called it quits in 2007, after which it became an on-again, off-again relationship.
As their friend assures, “All their friction is a thing of the past. Every couple has their share of ups and downs and this one is no exception. Anyway, its wedding bells for them in March.” Despite repeated attempts, Isha and Zaheer remained unavailable for comment.
