India’s historic T20 World Cup 2026 triumph produced many unforgettable moments, but one video that quickly went viral featured Ishan Kishan celebrating the title win with his girlfriend Aditi Hundia at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
As the celebrations continued past midnight, the stadium was still buzzing with excitement when a heartwarming scene unfolded on the field. Kishan, draped in the Indian tricolour after helping India secure the title, shared an emotional embrace with Hundia, who had come down from the stands to join the jubilant players. The candid moment, captured by cameramen and widely circulated on social media, became one of the defining moment of India’s third T20 World Cup victory.
A night of glory and celebration for Team India
The celebrations followed a memorable performance from Kishan in the final. Coming in at number three after the early dismissal of Abhishek Sharma, the left-handed batter played a crucial role in building India’s massive total.
Kishan smashed 54 runs off just 25 balls, striking four boundaries and four sixes. His aggressive knock provided the momentum India needed and helped power the team to 255 for 5, the highest total ever recorded in a T20 World Cup final. The innings marked his third half-century of the tournament and played a key role in India’s commanding 96-run victory over New Zealand.
Adding to the moment was the presence of Aditi Hundia in the stands throughout the match. The Jaipur-based model was spotted several times on the live broadcast cheering enthusiastically for the Indian team. Dressed casually in a red tank top and denims, she was seated among family members of other Indian players, including Abhishek Sharma’s sister Komal.
Once India sealed the win, the celebrations spilled onto the field. Hundia made her way from the stands onto the iconic Ahmedabad pitch, navigating through the sea of jubilant players and support staff. When she finally reached Kishan, the two shared a warm embrace as the wicketkeeper-batter stood proudly wrapped in the Indian flag.

Fans on social media quickly labeled the moment the “perfect ending to a perfect night.” Videos from the celebrations also showed Hundia joining other players and their companions during the post-match festivities, including dancing alongside Hardik Pandya and his partner Mahieka Sharma.

“I dedicate this win to her:” Ishan Kishan
The celebrations also carried a deeper emotional layer for Kishan. Just two days before the final, tragedy struck his family when his cousin sister Vaishnavi Singh and her husband Ritik Singh died in a car accident in Siliguri while traveling to attend a wedding.
Despite the heartbreaking loss, Kishan chose to stay with the team and play the final. After the match, he revealed the emotional burden he had carried onto the field.
“To be honest, before the game, I lost my cousin sister yesterday in a car accident. I played well for her. I spoke to Hardik bhai, he said to put the team ahead. I dedicate this win to her, and today is Women’s Day, so it makes it all the more special,” he said, his voice heavy with emotion.
