With his 152-run* knock against Punjab Kings, KL Rahul changed the course of history. He became the first Indian in IPL history to score more than 150. Athiya Shetty cheered on her husband’s record-breaking efforts on Instagram Stories while watching the game from home.
Athiya posted a photo of KL Rahul on the field on Instagram. That wasn’t all. She posted a photo of herself watching KL’s celebration on TV along with the word “ufff” on Instagram Stories after Rahul scored a century. Athiya posted another story after the innings ended, labeling it “just insane.”
After meeting through a common friend in January 2019, Athiya and Rahul developed a close relationship almost away. The couple married in 2023 at Athiya’s father Suniel Shetty’s Khandala farmhouse after courting for a few years. On Rahul’s 33rd birthday last year, the couple announced the name of their daughter, Evaarah.
