Indian Cricketer Irfan Pathan to get married in February 2016

Irfan Pathan, one of the most eligible bachelors among cricketers, is rumored of getting settled with his personal life. Pathan has always preferred being low-profile with his personal life and has refused to divulge any information about the special day.

Last year saw some of the many high profile cricketers getting hitched or engaged. The most recent was Indian medium-pacer Mohit Sharma who got engaged in the earlier this month. It appears that reportedly, Irfan Pathan, will also get married in the month of February.  The bride’s name, as per sources, is Safa.

According to Times of India, Irfan earlier had said,” The news of me getting married in February is true. Beyond that, I don’t want to say much on this and will issue a small statement in a few days.”

A source close to the cricketer says, “The wedding preparations are on in full swing and the family has already ordered a diamond necklace for Irfan’s bride and for his sister, apart from other jewellery from a reputed jeweller in Surat who had provided jewellery for Yusuf’s wedding too. If not in the first week of February, the wedding should take place in the second week.”

Irfan said, “2016 will be an exciting year for me, both professionally and personally. Ghar pe agar ek bete ki shaadi ho jaaye, toh doosre pe thoda pressure toh hota hi hai. But my family is very relaxed about it and they don’t put any unnecessary pressure on me. The world will know when I decide to tie the knot.”

Irfan’s elder brother Yusuf Pathan got married in 2013 at a family function in Mumbai and the Pathans kept the function a private affair. Similarly, Irfan Pathan’s wedding is also expected to be quiet family function.
