💛 A Celebration of Love and Laughter
Indian cricketer and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) all-rounder Shivam Dube brought a fun twist to his wedding anniversary this year. On Wednesday, July 16, he celebrated four years of marriage with wife Anjum Khan by posting a humorous yet heartwarming video on Instagram, blending light comedy with genuine couple moments.
Married in a private ceremony in Mumbai back in 2021, the couple has since grown their family with two adorable children — Ayaan, born on February 13, 2022, and Mehwish, born earlier this year on January 3, 2025.
🎬 The Viral Video That Won Hearts
The standout element of Dube’s post was a lighthearted video where the couple is seen lip-syncing to a popular audio clip that jokingly sums up the reality of many relationships:
“Humne socha the dono milke duniya se ladenge lekin humari khud ki ladaiyaan kam nahin ho rahi.”
(We thought we’d fight the world together, but we can’t even stop fighting among ourselves.)
The post quickly went viral, resonating with fans and fellow cricketers who appreciated the honest, funny take on married life. It was accompanied by three lovely photos that captured the warmth and chemistry the duo shares off the field.
🏏 Cricketing Form Amid Team Woes
While Shivam Dube’s personal life is filled with happiness, the same can’t be said about his team’s fortunes in IPL 2025. The Chennai Super Kings, five-time IPL champions, endured their worst season ever, finishing last on the points table with just eight points from 14 matches.
Yet, Dube stood out as one of the few consistent performers. Featuring in all 14 games, the left-handed all-rounder scored 357 runs, averaging 32.45 with a strike rate of 132.22, including a vital half-century. His gritty performances amid a struggling team earned praise from fans and pundits alike.
👨👩👧👦 Looking Ahead
Balancing cricket and family life is no easy feat, but Dube appears to be managing it with grace and humor. His anniversary post serves as a reminder that even amidst professional ups and downs, personal milestones and moments of joy can shine through.
As fans hope for a CSK revival in future IPL seasons, they continue to root for Dube, both as a reliable middle-order batter and a family man whose Instagram game is as strong as his cricketing strokes.
