Pakistani pacer Hasan Ali has confirmed that he was getting married in a ceremony to be held in Dubai on August 20. Talking to media on Friday, Hasan Ali said he had met Samia a year ago at a dinner and they started talking. He said, "I spoke to my brother and sister-in-law after I met her in Dubai. I told my brother that I wanted to marry her and the family had no issue."
Hasan revealed that his fiancé Samia Azroo was not a fan of cricket; I liked Samia's honesty the most; "She knows nothing about cricket and does not like it. Her first favourite cricketer is Hasan Ali." Answering a question, Hasan said that most of his teammates were busy on August 20; however, Shadab Khan would be attending his 'nikkah' ceremony in Dubai. "The valima will be held two to three months later in Pakistan when all the cricketers will be free," he said.
Responding to a query, Hasan said, "Pictures circulating on social media of his fiancé were fake; there is pressure from the families not to show the picture. But people will see her on the 20th. There are fake girls on social media but there is one picture of her."
To another query, Hasan Ali said that he would be wearing a black Pakistani "sherwani" with elements of red while Samia would be wearing Indian clothes (Saarhi) at the nikkah. When asked about future plans, Hasan Ali said that after their valima the couple would be staying in Gujranwala.
It may be added that Hasan Ali's fiancé Samia Arzoo works for a private airline, belongs to Hariana in India. She studied engineering from England and lives with her parents in Dubai having family members in New Delhi.
