Rohit Sharma Dedicated The Double-Ton To His Wife, His Ex Sofia Hayat Reacts

With the recent double-ton in the second ODI against Sri Lanka, Indian skipper Rohit Sharma made the entire nation proud by defeating the tough rivals at Mohali, Punjab, on Wednesday, December 13. But, what gained attention is Rohit’s bond of love with wife Ritika Sahdeh added sweetness to the entire match. Rohit kissing his wedding ring and dedicating his success to wife Ritika on their second anniversary touched the heart of millions of viewers.

While the whole country is absolutely proud of Rohit’s deed. It seems that one person doesn’t find Rohit’s success a big deal. Speaking about Rohit’s third double ton in his ODI career, ex-girlfriend Sofia Hayat said, “I am happy that Rohit is gaining success. But wondering how people are discriminating things on gender. Rohit should understand it is just a ‘bat-ball’ game. Just that he is a man, so people are clapping.”

Later, she added, “No one went this crazy when Kanchanmala won the Olympics with her disability. That was something more encouraging and should have been more praised as per my opinion. I would be celebrating something better or social cause, not on this for sure.”

Factually, Hayat was talking about Kanchanmala Pande, a visually challenged athlete from Maharashtra, who made India proud recently after becoming the first Indian swimmer to clinch gold at the World Para-Swimming Championship held in Mexico in early December.

Talking on dedicating the victory to his wife, Sofia said, “He (Rohit) has this old habit to credit his partner. When I was in his life, I used to be credited but I use to cry only when he played bad. I’m happy that Rohit has finally found someone who is trying to make him move on from me.”

Earlier in 2012, there was media buzz that the British-Indian model and Rohit were dating. Later, Sofia took to Twitter to announce that she did date Rohit for a year but the relationship ended. She even mentioned that she was “looking for a gentleman” post-breakup with the cricketer. While Rohit is happily married to Ritika for over two years, Sofia, who had turned a nun, found love in model Vlad Stanescu whom she got married this year.
