The latest episode of The 50 brought both emotion and drama, with Krishna Shroff opening up about her personal life in a candid conversation that caught many by surprise. The fitness entrepreneur confirmed that she is in a live-in relationship with Afghan MMA fighter Abdul Azim Badakhshi, sharing how their unexpected love story began.
Recalling their first interaction, Krishna said they initially crossed paths at a fight event in Mumbai. “He had a fight in Mumbai, and I was there because Tiger co-owned a team that was playing opposite him,” she shared. What started as a casual moment soon turned into something more when Azim reached out to her on Instagram. “I saw his DM; he had just said ‘Hi’. I replied, and he immediately asked for my number,” she said with a smile, adding, “No one had ever approached me with so much confidence, and I like that.”
