Indian cricketer Rinku Singh and Samajwadi Party MP Priya Saroj have postponed their wedding by nearly three months. Initially scheduled for November 18, 2025, the couple’s wedding will now take place in February 2026, with the final date expected to be announced soon.

The couple, who got engaged on June 8 in Lucknow, celebrated their engagement in a grand ceremony attended by several political heavyweights and close family members. Among the high-profile attendees were SP chief Akhilesh Yadav, MP Dimple Yadav, Jaya Bachchan, Rajeev Shukla, Shivpal Yadav, Ramgopal Yadav, and fellow cricketer Bhuvneshwar Kumar.

According to a report by Amar Ujala, family sources confirmed that the wedding has been pushed to early next year due to Rinku Singh’s busy cricketing schedule in November.

The original venue was booked at the Taj Hotel in Varanasi, and it remains to be seen whether the same location will host the rescheduled nuptials.

The 27-year-old batsman is an integral part of the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the IPL and has played 33 T20Is and 2 ODIs for India. His domestic record is equally impressive, with over 3,300 runs in 50 first-class matches, including seven centuries.

The BCCI’s schedule confirms India’s tour of Australia in October-November, followed by a home series against South Africa, a packed calendar that leaves little room for personal events.

Priya Saroj, 26, recently made headlines after being elected as MP from Jaunpur’s Machhlishahr constituency. She is the daughter of SP MLA Tufani Saroj, who represents the Kerakat Assembly constituency.

Speaking to the press, Tufani Saroj revealed that the marriage was arranged with the mutual consent of both families, who had met earlier in Aligarh.
