Made world-famous by his spectacular opening partnerships for the Royal Challengers Bangalore at the IPL 2020, Karnataka youngster Devdutt Padikkal gave fans some rare insight into his personal life. Talking on the popular RCB Insider channel to the popular Mr. Nags, the young batsman manoeuvred expertly around perhaps some of the most asked questions about him including a fan favourite: 'Does Devdutt Padikkal have a girlfriend?'

Does Devdutt Padikkal have a girlfriend?

Currently on tour with the Royal Challengers Bangalore side, Mr Nags (aka Danish Sait, the team's entertainer-in chief) took on team youngster Devdutt Padikkal in an NBA Live game on the eve of the DC vs RCB showdown in Ahmedabad. In conversation with the opener, he revealed first and foremost that the duo's plans to shoot the interview at their hotel bar was denied owing to the fact that Padikkal is a mere 20 years of age - far younger than his records would make it seem. Getting straight to the point, Sait told Padikkal that he would ask him some of the most searched questions about him.

Unsurprisingly, the top question was, 'Does Devdutt Padikkal have a girlfriend?'. Visibly flustered, Padikkal immediately replied with a firm "no one", before unsuccessfully trying to turn the tables onto Sait. With a much more firm answer for the second most asked question, 'Who is Devdutt Padikkal's wife?', the youngster replied that he was simply too young to be married. As Sait remarked in the video - much to fans' pleasure - the giggly Padikkal also revealed that even though he meets people every day, he "had not met anybody" yet.
