"We went to the same middle school together. That's how we got introduced to each other. But then, we grew up and met as adults again. I was working at an event company. He had a massive crush on me, and the whole school knew it… He moved schools to pursue cricket and we were in touch on and off, birthdays, neighbourhood, like that. I met him again when I was handling CSK’s account and suddenly I saw him as a six-footer. We knew each other from Grade 7.”
