IPL 2023: Shikhar Dhawan Opened Up About His Failed Relationship –
Recently, in an interview, Shikhar Dhawan admitted that he ‘failed’ in marriage. But he doesn’t want to point fingers at other because the decisions he took were his own.
“I failed because the final decision is the person’s own and I don’t point fingers at others. I failed because I was not aware of that field. The things I talk about cricket today, I wouldn’t have been aware of the same 20 years back. It comes with experience,” said Dhawan.
The southpaw also revealed that his divorce case hasn’t been settled yet. He didn’t rule out the subject of ‘remarriage’ but isn’t thinking about it at the moment.
“Right now my divorce case is going on. Tomorrow, if I want to marry again, I will be much more wiser in that field. I’ll know what kind of girl I need; someone whom I can spend my life with. When I was 26-27 and I was continuously playing, I was not in any relationship. I used to have fun, but was never in a relationship,” said the southpaw.
“So, when I fell in love, I couldn’t see the red flags. But today, if I fall in love, I will be able to see those red flags. So, if I see those red flags, I will walk out. If not, I will carry on,” he added.
Shikhar Dhawan’s Advice To The Youngsters –
The 37-year-old also advised youngsters to experience relationships and understand if they enjoy their partner’s company. Only then should the decision of taking the relationship to the next step should be taken.
“Youngsters, when they get into relationships, they need to experience it. That’s important. They should not take an emotional decision in haste and get married. Spend a couple of years with the person and see whether your cultures match and whether you enjoy each others’ company,” said Dhawan.
“It’s also like a match; some might need 4-5 relationships, others might take 8-9 to figure things out. There is nothing bad in that. You will learn from it, and when you take a decision on marriage, you will have some experience,” Dhawan explained in cricketing analogies.
Meanwhile, Shikhar Dhawan has been out of team India for quite some time now. But he has the opportunity to prove his worth in Indian Premier League season 16. He will be leading the Punjab Kings team. Shikhar Dhawan-led Punjab Kings will play their first match against Kolkata Knight Riders on April 1.
