Yograj Singh reveals the turmoils in his personal life

Yograj Singh, a former Indian cricketer and father of legendary Indian all-rounder Yuvraj Singh, has devoted his life to cricket and is mostly brought to the limelight for his fierce persona and unfiltered takes on Indian cricket.

The former fast bowler, for the first time, has shown an emotional side of himself and has spoken about how he has been battling loneliness for years, and also revealed how he is "ready to die" and has nothing much left in his life.

The turmoil is an openly known secret, as the 62-year-old had often talked about the constant fights in his family and that his son was the first to realize it. He also said in a recent interview that the biggest shock of his life came when his wife and son left him.

This should have happened with me, happened for good,” Yograj Singh shared

Yograj Singh said, “When things came at a point where Yuvi and his mother left me, it gave me the biggest shock. The woman for whom I dedicated my entire life, all of my youth, they can also leave me and go away? A lot of things got destroyed like this."

"I asked God why all of this was happening when I did everything right by everyone. I might have made some mistakes, but I am an innocent man; I didn’t do anything bad to anyone. I cried in front of God, he took me out of that sea,” he broke down.

Yograj Singh added that he later got married for the second time, but even that phase left him when life brought him back to square one, which he once wanted to escape.

“It was God’s play, what was written for me. There was a lot of anger and feeling of revenge. Then cricket came in my life, got discontinued, made Yuvi play cricket, he played and left. Then, I got married again, had two kids, they also left for the US."

"A few films also released, time passed away and came back to the point where it all started. I was asking myself, " Did I do all of this for what? Do you have anyone with you now? This should have happened with me, happened for good,” he shared.

Singh also revealed his recent evenings of solitude

When the interviewer asked about how he spends his evenings with his current family, the former cricketer mentioned that he spends away entirely in solitude, because there is no one back at home with him.

“I sit alone in the evening and have no one at home. I rely on strangers for food, sometimes one person, sometimes the other. I don’t bother anyone, though. Someone or the others gets food for me if I am hungry. I kept house help and cooks; they served and went away."

“I love my mother, kids, daughter-in-law, grandchildren, and everyone in the family. But I don’t ask for anything. I am ready to die. My life is complete; whenever God wants, he can take me with him. I am so thankful to God, I pray and he keeps giving,” Yograj Singh concluded.
