In an intimate ceremony in Mumbai on Wednesday, world sports cue champion Pankaj Advani married celebrity stylist Saniya Shadadpuri. Advani and Shadadpuri shared their social media glimpses of the ceremony.
In traditional Sindhi fashion, the wedding was held at Gurudwara Dhan Pothohar in Santacruz. Only a few close friends and relatives attended it, keeping in mind the restrictions due to the coronavirus pandemic.
On that occasion, Advani dedicated a brief poem to his bride. A representation of the love they share and a merging of two souls that would last forever, he called their union.

Advani wrote on Instagram, “What a magical day this has been,” while thanking everyone involved in the ceremony who “pulled it off together in these uncertain times.” The couple is planning to throw a reception later in Bengaluru, the hometown of Advani.
The Golden Boy has to his name many sporting accolades. He is a 23-time world champion with an unrivalled record of winning the titles of the Asian and World Championship in all game formats. He is also the first Indian to become the Six-Red Snooker World Champion. He was awarded the Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna, Arjuna Award, Padma Shri and Padma Bhushan by the Government of India for his incredible contribution to sport.
His newly-wed wife Shadadpuri is an accomplished make-up artist who has studied and worked with some of the most popular Bollywood stars, including Taapsee Pannu, Dia Mirza, Bipasha Basu, among others, in Los Angeles, New York, and London.
Actually, at her own wedding, she was the one who took care of the design and make-up. Advani thanked her for saying she had made them look awesome. The couple are looking forward to starting their new journey together.
