Photos: Prithvi Shaw celebrates Ganesh Chaturthi with rumoured girlfriend and social media influencer Akriti Agarwal

Cricketer Prithvi Shaw celebrated Ganesh Chaturthi with social media influencer Akriti Agarwal on Wednesday, sharing intimate photos of their festivities on social media. The celebration comes amid Shaw's recent career moves, including a successful debut century for Maharashtra and growing speculation about his relationship with Agarwal, who boasts 3.3 million Instagram followers.

Shaw's social media post featured three pictures, with two showing the pair posing next to a Ganesh idol. This public appearance together adds fuel to ongoing relationship rumours, especially following Shaw's previous reported connection with actress Nidhi Tapadia, who had shared cryptic posts suggesting heartbreak.

The cricketer's personal life developments come alongside his professional transition. Shaw recently made headlines with an impressive performance in the Buchi Babu Invitational Tournament, scoring 111 runs off 141 balls against Chhattisgarh. His century included 14 fours and a six, marking a strong start with his new team Maharashtra.


Shaw's move to Maharashtra represents a fresh start for the former India opener. He switched from Mumbai earlier this year after facing challenges with form and fitness. His recent struggles included being dropped from Mumbai's Ranji Trophy squad and going unsold in the IPL auction, a significant setback for a player who hasn't represented India since July 2021.

Meanwhile, Akriti Agarwal is making her own career moves. Beyond her substantial social media presence, including 88,000 YouTube subscribers, she's venturing into Bollywood with an upcoming role in "Trimukha."


Their apparent relationship has been hinted at through various social media interactions, including Shaw's birthday post for Akriti featuring a heart emoji and her commenting "My perfect view" on his vacation pictures.

The couple's public appearance during Ganesh Chaturthi marks a significant moment in their rumoured relationship, as both personalities navigate important transitions in their respective careers.
