"Ye aayi thi khana leke ghar se, humne khana khaya. Hum log baithe the aur maine isko bola ki Chal ice cream khane jaate hai, bore ho rahe hai. Toh hum nikle Marine Drive se, Haji Ali, Bandra, Dadar sab cross kar liya. Toh ye puchti hai kaha hai tera ice cream parlour. Toh maine bola jaha main rehta hu waha ek hai accha, then we reached the ground. Ground mein andhera tha, so she didn't realise and I had already told my friend to set up something at the ground and be there to capture the moment. Then I went on my knees in the middle of the pitch and then I proposed to her."
