Rohit Sharma, born on April 30, 1987, comes from a humble background. His immediate family includes his father Gurunath Sharma, mother Purnima Sharma, younger brother Vishal Sharma, wife Ritika Sajdeh, daughter Samaira Sharma, and newborn son Ahaan Sharma.
His parents made numerous sacrifices to support his cricketing journey from an early age. To pursue professional training in Mumbai, Rohit often lived with his grandparents or uncles, with limited time to see his parents on weekends.
His younger brother, Vishal Sharma, leads a private life away from the media spotlight but remains a strong pillar of support for Rohit.
Rohit's wife, Ritika, has provided him with both emotional and professional support throughout his career, particularly during periods of injury or criticism. Their daughter and son are frequently seen in the stands cheering for Team India.
