" I told her that you have rejected the Kohinoor diamond" - Shikhar Dhawan recounts how a girl once turned down his proposal

Team India opener Shikhar Dhawan is currently plying his trade for the Punjab Kings (PBKS) in the ongoing 15th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2022). The star batter recently revealed how a girl had once turned down his proposal.

In a video shared by PBKS on social media, Dhawan recalled how he had once proposed to a girl several years back. He revealed that while she had declined his proposal, he had told her that she had rejected the 'Kohinoor diamond'.

Shikhar Dhawan said:

"Once I proposed to a girl and she rejected me. She used to play at that time and had a dark face tone. So, you know what I said? I told her that you have rejected the Kohinoor diamond."

It is worth mentioning that Dhawan is one of the top performers with the bat in the cash-rich league. With 5876 runs to his name, the southpaw is currently the second-highest run scorer in the competition's history. He has slammed two centuries and 44 fifties in the tournament.
