Malaika Arora was seen supporting Rajasthan Royals against Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2025 on Sunday night. Now you will say what is new in this? It is not a new thing for Bollywood celebs to reach the stadium and enjoy cricket or support a team. But Malaika was not alone. Rajasthan Royals Director of Cricket Kumar Sangakkara was also present with her.
Seeing Malaika in the team's dugout in Rajasthan Royals jersey has created a stir on the internet. Social media users are decoding the whole matter in their way. When pictures of Malaika present at Barsapara Stadium in Guwahati were shown on TV, there was a ruckus about her and Kumar Sangakkara dating.
It is important to mention here that after the breakup with Arjun Kapoor, Malaika Arora's name keeps getting associated with different people. Now it is the turn of the former cricket star. By the way, Sri Lanka's legendary wicketkeeper and former captain Kumar Sangakkara is married. His wife's name is Yehali. Both of them got married in 2003, and the couple also has two children.
Talking about Sangakkara's career, he was playing the responsibility of head coach along with being the Director of Cricket of Rajasthan Royals for the last several seasons, but after the arrival of Rahul Dravid, he was relieved of the additional responsibility of coaching. The Sri Lankan legend has also played for Punjab Kings (formerly Kings XI Punjab), Deccan Chargers, and Sunrisers Hyderabad during his IPL career.
We do not know whether Malaika Arora and Kumar Sangakkara are dating. But Malaika certainly came as a lucky charm for the Rajasthan Royals team because the team got its first win of the season on Sunday night after two consecutive defeats. Chennai Super Kings were defeated by acting captain Riyan Parag's team by six runs.
