Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) became the first team to qualify in the playoffs of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024. With an array of talented players, they currently lead the league’s points table. Among their star players, one such talent is Rinku Singh, who is known for his stellar performances and ability to sway matches and secure victories even in the direst situations.
Despite his on-field heroics, Rinku is recognized as a reserved individual who prefers to avoid the spotlight. However, his KKR teammates often indulge in light-hearted banter and pranks, aiming to draw him out of his shell. One such incident occurred when Nitish Rana orchestrated a playful scenario where Rinku found himself proposing to an imaginary woman.
Nitish Rana placed Rinku Singh in an amusing situation
In a video that circulated online, reportedly from two years ago, KKR players were seen on a plane heading for an IPL match. Rinku was seated beside Nitish in the footage. The former KKR skipper recounted a playful incident where he had encouraged Rinku to humorously imagine him as a lady and propose, to which Rinku reluctantly agreed.
Nitish had captured the moment on his phone, in which Rinku was holding a flower pot and mimicking a proposal. Nitish then took out his mobile and revealed the recording. When Nitish showed the video, Rinku appeared visibly embarrassed and covered his face before bursting into laughter. “Hi baby, I propose you,” Rinku said in the video.
