We met Raina at an event organised by his friends to congratulate him, where he told us that he got engaged on April 1 and that he is all set to get hitched in Delhi on Friday.
He told us, "My designer has given me a sherwani and there is a lehenga that will be worn by Priyanka for the wedding. I am excited. It was very important that it (marriage) happens at this stage. The best thing is that the match has been decided by my mom. We have chosen the venue in Delhi since I have lots of friends here. Virat (Kohli), Shikhar (Dhawan), Ishant (Sharma) aur meri UP ki team ke bahut saare players hain, jo sab aa rahe hain. Some of my friends from Lucknow, London and Dubai, and my entire cricket team, will be coming here. It's just a get-together."
Raina also told us how he met Priyanka, and how, despite being childhood friends, they weren't in touch. "I have known Priyanka for long, but in the middle, I didn't have time to be in touch with her. I remember meeting her at the airport for five minutes in 2008. She was flying back to Holland (where she currently works) and I was going to Bangalore for an IPL game, and we met at the Delhi airport for just five minutes. Usse pehle main usse bachpan mein mila tha. Priyanka's father was my sports teacher in Ghaziabad and my mom was very close to her mother. I'll call it more of an arranged marriage because our families have known each other for a long time," he said.
Raina said that while he was away in Australia, his mother chose Priyanka to be his bride. "I was in Australia for the last five months. Mamma ne sab fix kiya hai. I didn't know. Mom called me in Australia and told me that my marriage has been fixed with one of my childhood friends. Maine kaha kaun hai. Then I spoke to Priyanka on the phone. Before the World Cup, I had told some of my teammates about my wedding after my mom told me that everything had been finalised. There were some rituals that had to be done, but I asked mom to complete them since I wanted to focus on my matches. I told mom that I know you are doing the right thing for me, but first let me speak to her. Bahut difficult ho jaata hai because you need to spend time with the girl. But it all went well. Cricketers ki life bahut hectic hoti hai because there is so much of travelling involved," he said, adding that he still hasn't got an opportunity to spend time with Priyanka. "I met her recently after the World Cup for just half an hour. We hail from middle-class families and we need to respect that. Hopefully, I am going to see her soon," he stressed.
Even though Raina's fans might be looking forward to seeing his wife cheering for him during the coming IPL, they will be in for a disappointment since Priyanka will be going back to Holland for some time. "I want her to focus on her career. We won't get much time together, so I will be going to Holland later. For the honeymoon, we are planning to go to Milan after the IPL," he revealed.
We asked him whether Priyanka follows cricket, but he said that she is more of a football fanatic. "She doesn't know much about cricket. She is a great soccer fan. She is a huge fan of Messi and Robin van Persie. She loves me for what I am and not because I am a cricketer. She is a very nice girl and I love her," he told us. Raina also revealed that he has been getting comments from female fans on social media, but that doesn't bother him: "I have been getting reactions from female fans on social networking sites, but I need to give happiness to my family. I am 28 now and this is the right time. I have no regrets."
