On Tuesday, September 19, in Karachi, the renowned Pakistan fast bowler Shaheen Afridi wed Ansha Afridi, the daughter of former Pakistan cricketer Shahid Afridi. Fans of the Pakistani speedster have congratulated him on his special day as a result of the images and videos from the event going viral throughout social media.
Prior to that, on Monday, the couple conducted a Mehendi celebration at Shahid Afridi’s home. Their close friends and family members were present. Notably, Shaheen and Ansha Afridi were married on February 3 of this year after becoming engaged in 2021.
The 23-year-old had previously admitted that he was the one who had thought of getting married to Ansha Afridi. “Obviously, since it was my marriage, I was the one who gave marriage to her some thought. My brother and Lala have known each other for a very long time, and our elders are also acquainted. As a result, my mother moved forward with the proposal, and both sets of parents approved, according to Insidesport.
ALLAH Pak creates us in pairs and grants us love in our hearts to love another human being.

“There wasn’t really a formal first meeting. We once visited one another’s homes. I would see her whenever they visited our home, and we eventually met at our Nikah. They say you should always be with someone who values you as a person, and thank God I am. She doesn’t participate much but has always been there for me,” he continued.
