Yuvraj Singh is actually a Sikh; his father Yograj Singh is a Sikh while his mother Shabnum Singh is Hindu. RamanVirk 15:24, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->As a husband... My marriage to Yuvraj's mother Shabnam was a mistake. We are from completely different backgrounds; I am a farmer whereas she is from a business family. Her education gave her a lot of exposure. She wanted to go out and be independent.
Unfortunately I am an oldfashioned man who thinks that a women's place is at home. Add to that the emotional turmoil and frustration I was going through and my relationship with her kept going downhill. I also started drinking. We reached a point where we just couldn't understand each other. But I have to give her credit that she did a lot for my family. Maybe if she had been a little more tenacious with me, things could have worked out.
