The clip quickly went viral on the internet, leaving users amused. The incident took place on his game show, Family Full House with Rohit Sharma. In a promo released by Sony Entertainment Television, Delhi comedian Aakash Gupta linked India's World Cup victory with the captain's marriage.
He suggested that whenever an Indian captain gets married, the team wins the World Cup the subsequent year, leaving co-guests, including Anupam Mittal, founder of matchmaking platform Shaadi.com, and Namita Thapar, Executive Director of Emcure Pharmaceuticals, in laughter.
Aakash Gupta said: "History rahi hai, jis captain ki shaadi hui hai, India next year World Cup jeeti hai" (History shows that whenever a captain gets married, India wins the World Cup the next year).
Anupam Mittal quickly interrupted Aakash, saying, "Isliye to Shubman ke pichhe lage hain hum" (That's why we are behind Shubman to get him married).
"Unhone to na bol diya ki abhi nahi karna," (Shubman said no that he doesn't want to marry right now) added Anupam.
Stepping into the conversation, he added: "Nahi yrr, World Cup jeetne ke liye mujhe kuch bhi karna padega main to karunga" (No man, I'll do whatever it takes to win the World Cup).
Shubman Gill and Rohit Sharma are currently in New Zealand for the multi-format series that got underway on October 22, 2026. Having won the five-match T20I series 3-2, India will now kick off their ODI campaign on November 4, 2026.
