How Shikhar Dhawan Proposed Sophie? 

In the upcoming Sunday Brunch episode, we played a game with Shikhar Dhawan and Sophie Shine, where we showed them photos and asked them to guess what was missing. When we showed them their wedding photo, Sophie revealed how the former cricketer proposed to her. She said it was a surprise. Her friends sent her a picture saying there was a party, and Sophie decided to attend. She was travelling from Dubai and hadn’t packed any special dress. She had only packed a black dress.

When she arrived, she told Shikhar that her parents weren’t picking up her calls. Sophie then decided to check the camera because her parents are always responsible. However, the camera wasn’t working. When the couple entered the party venue, Sophie saw that it was decorated with candles and flowers. Her first thought was, “There’s no way I am getting engaged in this dress.”

After getting engaged, Sophie was trying to call her parents to share the news. The next thing she saw was her parents coming out of the room.
