Delhi [India], November 2, 2025: Indian hockey icon and former captain Rani Rampal has entered a new chapter in her life as she tied the knot with CA Pankaj Saroha in a beautiful ceremony held on Sunday, surrounded by family and close friends.
Rani, one of India’s most celebrated athletes and a true inspiration for women in sports, has led the Indian women’s hockey team to several historic milestones on the global stage.
Her husband, Pankaj Saroha, is a Chartered Accountant by profession. The couple’s union marks a moment of joy and celebration, as they look forward to a life filled with love, respect, and shared dreams.
They extend their heartfelt gratitude for the warm wishes and blessings pouring in from fans, friends, and well-wishers across the country.
Rani Rampal announced her retirement as player last year in October. Rani played 254 international matches and scored 120 goals since making her debut at just 14 years old in 2008 during the Olympic qualifiers in Kazan, becoming the youngest woman to represent India at the senior level in hockey.
Rani also played a key role in the Indian team that won a silver medal at the Asia Cup in 2009 and helped secure a bronze at the Asian Games in 2014. In honour of Rani Rampal’s remarkable contributions to Indian hockey, Hockey India retired her iconic No. 28 jersey later in the day.
