India fast bowler Arshdeep Singh has got engaged to actor-model Samreen Kaur in New Zealand. The engagement took place on Wednesday, shortly after Mumbai Indians’ trade for the pacer from Punjab Kings was officially confirmed ahead of the IPL 2027 season.
Samreen shared photographs from the proposal on Instagram, including images of Arshdeep placing a ring on her finger. In her post, she wrote, “And of all the things life could have given us, I'm the happiest it gave us each other. To a lifetime together. 11.11.2026 (Hi Fiance).”
The couple are currently in New Zealand, where Arshdeep is part of India’s squad for the three-match ODI series against the Black Caps. Samreen has also accompanied him on cricket tours and has been seen with the bowler during the Indian Premier League.
The engagement comes nearly four months after Arshdeep publicly acknowledged his relationship with Samreen. On July 26, he posted two pictures with her on Instagram and captioned them “My Person”, ending weeks of speculation about the pair.
Interest in their relationship had grown during IPL 2026, when Samreen was seen supporting Punjab Kings at several matches. A video and photographs of the two walking hand-in-hand in Dharamshala added to the speculation, while their social media posts, travel pictures and public appearances drew further attention.
Who is Samreen Kaur?
Samreen, who comes from Jammu and Kashmir, is an actor, model and social media personality. She was a finalist at the Femina Miss India 2018 pageant, representing Jammu and Kashmir.
Her work includes appearances in the film ’83, the ZEE5 series Nail Polish and the Punjabi film Sardaar Ji 2. She has also featured in music videos involving artists such as Guru Randhawa, Badshah and Jubin Nautiyal.
Arshdeep has also been in the spotlight for his performances during India’s ongoing tour of New Zealand. After taking four wickets in the first ODI in Auckland, the 27-year-old said the distinctive dance celebration he performed was dedicated to Samreen.
“That's for my girlfriend. We do these dance steps when we're out walking or something like that. Whenever the mood is a little low, we cheer each other up with that celebration,” he had said after the match.
The engagement coincided with a major development in Arshdeep’s IPL career. Mumbai Indians and Punjab Kings completed a high-profile trade under which the India pacer will move to Mumbai, while Hardik Pandya will join Punjab ahead of IPL 2027. Arshdeep will retain his existing fee of Rs 18 crore.
Arshdeep made his IPL debut for Punjab Kings in 2019 and leaves the franchise as its leading wicket-taker. He claimed 111 wickets in 96 matches for the team.
