She is reported to be an avid traveler and had traveled places like Goa, Dubai and the United States alongside her now husband.
The 29-year-old cricketer was left out of team India’s New Zealand limited-overs series due to personal commitments. The couple had their Mehendi Ceremony and pre-wedding celebrations on Wednesday (January 25).
Meanwhile, videos from their wedding ceremony is already going viral. In a video, Axar can be seen performing a dance sequence to a Bollywood number.

Earlier Axar Patel was given a rest for the six white ball games against New Zealand alongside Rahul on the grounds of ‘personal reasons.’
‘He Tells me to Play freely, He’s There to Protect Me’: Axar Credits Captain Hardik for Batting Success
Although, Axar will not be available for the T20 series opener against New Zealand, he was last seen in action during the T20I series against Sri Lanka where he shone with the bat. Especially in the second T20I in Pune where India were down in the dumps. He also went onto take several wickets, becoming man of the tournament in the three-match series.
Axar’s best knock in the series came out in the Pune face-off when India were chasing a stiff 208-run target. His gutsy 65 off just 31 balls, along with Surya’s 51, seemed to be taking the Indian ship safely to the shore but, unfortunately, that couldn’t happen. The hosts lost by 16 runs but Axar got etched in everyone’s memory.
“Feel happier when the team benefits from my batting (when compared to bowling). Didn’t do anything different for this series, just that the captain gave me a lot of confidence in the dugout. He tells me to play freely and tells me that he is there to protect me,” Axar had said earlier.
