Hardik Pandya had announced his engagement to Natasa Stankovic on New Year’s eve of 2020 when he proposed to his partner on a yacht in Dubai during his holiday in the UAE. Pandya had kept the news a secret from even his brother Krual and it was only two days before the engagement that he told him, he had revealed in a recent interview to Cricbuzz.

“My parents also didn’t know that I was getting engaged. Two days before (the engagement), I told Krunal. I told him, ‘I have had enough. I have found someone in my life who I actually love, and I am becoming better.’ They (family) backed me and told ‘do whatever you want, me and Kunal are riding on the same boat,” Hardik Pandya told Cricbuzz.
