Reason Revealed: Why Kohli, Rohit and Dhoni Missed Akash Deep's Wedding?

Indian cricketer Akash Deep has finally tied the knot with Akshita Raj on June 24, 2026, in Varanasi. This Indian pacer has been under the spotlight for a few days, after his images at other functions were shared online, and fans were waiting for the D-Day, Akash Deep wedding, which was officially announced by the cricketer on his social media.

Although Akash Deep is considered one of the upcoming best bowlers in India, he has played alongside some of the Indian stars like Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Shubman Gill, and many more. Many fans were expecting famous Indian cricketers at Akash Deep wedding, but a few did. Let's find out the reason behind the absence of Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and MS Dhoni in Akash Deep Wedding guest list.

Why No Kohli Rohit and Dhoni at Akash Deep Wedding?

Akash Deep and Akshita Raj marriage happened on June 24, 2026, at the Taj Ganges, Varanasi. The wedding was mainly attended by close family members and friends. However, many fans were expecting the presence of Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and MS Dhoni, but neither of them attended the big day of Akash Deep.

A video has been circulating on X, where one person is asking groom, Akash Deep, “Haven't you called Virat Kohli Bhaiya, Dhoni and Rohit Bhaiya?” to which the cricketer replied that “It would be difficult to get marriage done in Varanasi then if he had invited them”. This reply from Akash clearly shows the craze of these cricketers, and it would have been difficult to arrange security measures for these star-studded cricketers, who have a great fan following in India. It was also likely that Akash Deep preferred a simple wedding with close family members and friends instead of a big-fat Indian wedding.

Which Indian Cricketers Attended Akash Deep Wedding?

Akash Deep wedding was mainly attended by close family members and friends, but a video has surfaced online which shows his Bengal domestic teammates, Shabaz Ahmed and Mukesh Kumar, were present at Akash Deep wedding. The video shows both the cricketers dancing and enjoying the biggest day of their friend, who was about to get married. However, it is likely that no other cricketer has attended Akash Deep wedding except Shabaz Ahmed and Mukesh Kumar.
