Who is Krishna Shroff’s boyfriend Abdul Azim Badakhshi? Afghan MMA player Jackie Shroff’s daughter is dating

‘The 50’ is winning hearts with its entertaining and fun episodes. Krishna Shroff is one of the contestants this season and is making headlines for her bold and strong personality. In one of the episodes, she opened up about her boyfriend and shared how she first met him.

Krishna shared that she is dating a fitness influencer and MMA player from Afghanistan named Abdul Azim Badakhshi. Ever since she revealed this, fans have been wondering who Abdul really is.




Abdul is an MMA fighter as well as a fitness enthusiast. He has a massive fan following on social media. With a following of around 8 lakhs, he is also a fitness influencer. The couple often share pictures and videos of their fun moments together on social media.

In one of the previous episodes, Krishna had spoken about her boyfriend with Natalia. She had shared back then, “He is from Afghanistan and is a professional MMA fighter. I like strong men. He had challenged me. I like alpha men.”

She further spoke about how they met and revealed, “We have been together since 2020. We started talking in November 2020 and then we met in May 2021. We had literally spoken for 8 months before meeting each other. He was in Afghanistan; he was actually in Bahrain. We met on Instagram, but I already knew who he was when he messaged me because I had seen him in fights. He shifted to Mumbai for me. After 8 months of talking, one day he said, ‘I want to come and see you,’ so I said okay, let’s meet.”



Recalling their first meeting, Krishna said, “I told him let’s go to Goa, because Mumbai is very hectic. Then we went to Goa, and neither of us was looking for a relationship. But we just clicked. Our first language is not the same at all; he speaks Farsi, I speak English, and his Hindi is like my Hindi. So it’s crazy how we connected despite that barrier between us. In fact, I never thought I would miss him that much after he left, and it was the same with him. But we actually missed each other.”
