Rivaba Jadeja, the wife of Ravindra Jadeja, recently addressed a reporter’s inquiry regarding her father-in-law Anirudhsinh’s recent accusations against her. Anirudhsinh accused Rivaba of causing a family rift, alleging that Ravindra had ceased communication with his father and sister after marriage. He also mentioned living alone in a 2BHK flat in the same city as the Team India all-rounder, supporting himself with his late wife’s ₹20,000 pension.
Anirudhsinh further implied that following Ravindra Jadeja’s marriage, Rivaba gradually assumed control of the cricketer’s assets and properties. He disclosed that the Audi car presented to Ravindra at his wedding was bought using his own funds.
Rivaba, who is a BJP MLA, was questioned about her father-in-law’s interview at an event. Expressing clear displeasure, she urged the reporter to reach out to her privately instead of bringing it up in a public setting. She stated:
“Why are we here today? You can contact me directly if you want to know about it.”
“Let’s ignore what’s said in scripted interviews” -Ravindra Jadeja’s response to his father’s statements
Following the widespread circulation of Anirudhsinh’s interview, Ravindra Jadeja addressed the situation on his social media platforms, asserting that it was a pre-planned interview. He appealed to his followers to disregard his father’s remarks. On the microblogging platform X (formerly Twitter), he stated:
“Let’s ignore what’s said in scripted interviews.”
Conveying his dissatisfaction with the efforts to damage his wife’s reputation, Ravindra stated in his message:
“Everything said in the nonsense interview recently published by Divyabhaskar is totally false and untrue. It is a one-sided story. I completely reject it. I strongly condemn the actions taken to malign my wife’s image. I also have many things to say; it’s better that I don’t make them public.”
In terms of cricket, Ravindra Jadeja was absent from the recently concluded second Test in the ongoing five-match series against England due to a hamstring injury. However, he has been included in the squad for the remaining three matches.
