Ritika Sajdeh was born, 21st December 1987 to parents Bobby and Tina Sajdeh. She also has a brother named Kunal.
Ritika Sajdeh is almost as famous as her cricketer husband Rohit Sharma, if not more famous. Ritika Sajdeh has been Rohit Sharma's manager for quite a few years before they began dating.
Ritika Sajdeh has always been beside her husband cheering him on, initially, during the Indian Premier League, when he plays for Mumbai Indians and now as an Indian cricketer.
Rohit Sharma revealed on a show that they first met in 2008 during a shoot for a sports brand.
Ritika Sajdeh, who is the rakhi sister to Yuvraj Singh, accompanied him as well as Irfan Pathan to the shoot, which Rohit attended as well.
When Yuvraj introduced Ritika to Rohit, the former told the latter, that he should not eye her as she was Yuvraj's rakhi sister.
The shoot did not go too well with the mic being off and reshoots being taken. Rohit seemed tense and decided to walk out for some air. After Ritika approached him, she asked him if he needed any help. The two got to talking and Rohit was way calmer post that.
Ritika then became Rohit Sharma's manager. A few months later, they became good friends and even began dating each other. It was then that Ritika became known as Rohit's partner.
In April 2015, Rohit Sharma proposed to Ritika Sajdeh at Borivli Sports Club ground, a location which was very dear to his heart. (Rohit began playing cricket here since has 11 years old).
Rohit Sharma and Ritika Sajdeh were engaged on June 3, 2015. Rohit also shared a picture of the two.
Rohit Sharma and Ritika Sajdeh were married on December 12, 2015 at Taj Lands Hotel.
