The couple has largely kept their relationship out of the public eye, maintaining a low profile while supporting each other through their respective journeys.
Mukesh’s rise in Indian cricket has been a story of perseverance and dedication.
After consistent performances for Bengal in domestic cricket, particularly in the Ranji Trophy, he earned a call-up to the Indian ODI squad in September 2022 for the series against South Africa.
Since then, he has featured across formats, contributing in all, and earning a spot in India’s wider pool of fast bowlers ahead of major tournaments.
Known for his disciplined line and length, Mukesh has been praised for his work ethic and calm temperament on the field.
Now, with the arrival of his first child, Mukesh enters a new phase of life.
Teammates and fans flooded his post with congratulations and blessings for the newborn.
As he celebrates fatherhood, the 31-year-old cricketer is expected to return to the field soon, bringing with him renewed joy and motivation.
