Is Laila Faisal Abhishek Sharma's ladylove?

After smashing a blistering 74 off just 39 balls to lead India to a six-wicket victory, young cricketer Abhishek Sharma has found himself in the spotlight. But it’s not just his explosive batting that has fans talking. The name making equal buzz is Laila Faisal, his rumoured girlfriend, who seems to be capturing attention both on and off the field.

​Who is Laila Faisal?

A London-educated entrepreneur, Laila Faisal is not just another face in the stands. She is the co-founder of LRF Designs, a luxury clothing and lifestyle label she runs with her mother, Roohi Faisal. The brand is known for its timeless silhouettes, buttery-soft fabrics, and Kashmiri silk creations that celebrate India’s rich textile legacy. Their early collections even featured oversized Kashmiri pherans with intricate golden and silver tilla work, giving them a vintage yet fashion-forward edge.

​A Kashmiri heritage

Hailing from a prominent Kashmiri Muslim family in Delhi, Laila grew up surrounded by entrepreneurial energy. She pursued her honours degree in psychology from King’s College London, while also studying fashion and branding at the prestigious London College of Fashion. Add to that her internships with global designers like Malan Breton and Rocky Star, and you can see why she has the credentials to run a rising luxury brand back home.

​All about her designer label

In a note on their journey, on their website, Laila and her mother have revealed how they spent over a year working with fabric manufacturers, dye houses, and sewing vendors before their first collection saw the light of day. Their philosophy is simple: create spirited, comfortable clothes that women love to wear, clothes that don’t fade or shrink, and pieces that carry a timeless elegance. With growing recognition, LRF Designs is gradually carving a niche in India’s luxury fashion circuit.

Sound business baroness

Her family also owns 'Sound oF Music' one of India's leading manufacturers of luxury high end home theatres, audio-video solutions, automation and exclusive furniture.

​The Abhishek Sharma link

Of course, what has really catapulted Laila into the limelight is her rumoured relationship with India’s rising T20 star. The speculation started when Laila reposted Abhishek’s record-breaking 135-run T20I knock against England with a proud caption. Fans have also spotted her cheering him on during IPL and international matches, often seen alongside his sister, Komal - a sign that she may already be close to his family.

​Fashion meets cricket

Whether or not the relationship rumours turn out to be true, one thing is certain, Laila Faisal is a name to watch. With her growing Instagram following, global fashion exposure, and sharp entrepreneurial drive, she represents the blend of modern luxury and traditional craft. And now, with her possible connection to Abhishek Sharma, she’s also becoming part of India’s cricket-pop culture crossover, where fashion and sport are increasingly going hand in hand.

As Abhishek continues to rise in Indian cricket and Laila shapes her luxury brand’s journey, their stories together and individually are already creating the kind of buzz that makes headlines.

Looking forward to this couple!

We are all keeping an eye on Abhishek and Laila’s relationship, and it’s safe to say it has everyone talking. The two share an easy chemistry that feels both refreshing and real, and every public sighting only adds to the intrigue. Whether it’s their quiet dinners or those subtle social media nods, they’ve built a buzz without even trying.

Queen in red

Looking at her Instagram handle, one can surely say that she is a fashion icon. From stunning Western fits to iconic Indo-Western looks, she literally can carry a fashion show. However, with a glam avatar, soft curls, and glossy lips, she stole the show in this beautiful red saree with a matching corset blouse that made everyone go gaga.

Creating lots of buzz

Surprisingly, not many knew about Laila Faisal until recently. It was only after Abhishek Sharma’s fiery performance against Pakistan that the buzz around his personal life truly began. Suddenly, all eyes weren’t just on his cricketing skills but also on the woman rumoured to be standing by his side, sparking endless curiosity and chatter online.

11/13

An accomplished person

Laila Faisal isn’t just turning heads with her stunning looks, she’s winning hearts with her sharp mind too. Often described as a beauty with brains, Laila carries herself with a mix of elegance and intelligence that instantly sets her apart. Whether it’s her poised appearances or the way she holds her own in conversations, she embodies the perfect balance of grace and wit. It’s this rare combination that has people so intrigued about her, especially now with all the buzz around her and Abhishek Sharma.
