Insight of the life of Romi Dev

A shy woman and polite by nature, Romi Bhatia (maiden name) was born and bought up in Delhi. Kapil Dev proposed Romi in a local train, and she immediately agreed to his proposal. In 1980, she got married to the former Indian skipper Kapil Dev. In a rare interview, Romi once said that Kapil would never discuss Cricket at home and he always used to keep cricket gossip to the field.

Always to keep a distance from the media, Kapil Dev and wife Romi Dev display their love for each other when India won the first-ever world cup under Kapil’s captaincy. At that moment, Kapil hugged Romi in front of everyone and she soon captured the media’s attention.
