Spearhead pacer Jasprit Bumrah is married to television presenter Sanjana Ganesan and the couple are parents to their one-and-a-half year old son, Angad. Bumrah, who had his family supporting him from the stands for the game between Mumbai Indians and Lucknow Super Giants at the Wankhede Stadium, had his lucky charms cheering for him, as he picked up four wickets in the game, which also helped MI register a comprehensive win in Match 45 of IPL 2025.
After completing his four-wicket haul, the camera had panned towards Sanjana and Angad, and the latter was keeping a straight face despite his father bowling an astonishing spell with the ball. Netizens took screenshots of Angad’s face and wrote unnecessary things about the same, making memes and posts that her mother did not find funny at all. She took a note of the same, and openly addressed the internet users to stop making content out of her son, who is still a child.
“Our son is NOT a topic for your entertainment. Jasprit and I do everything in our power to keep Angad away from social media because the Internet is a despicable, vile place to be and I completely understand the implications of bringing a child to a cricket stadium filled with cameras, but please understand that Angad and I were there to support Jasprit and nothing else,” Sanjana shared on her Instagram story on Monday, April 28.
“We have no interest in our son being viral Internet content or national news, with unnecessarily opinionated keyboard warriors deciding who Angad is, what his problem is, what his personality is, from 3 seconds of footage,” she wrote further.

Sanjana demand not throwing around words like “trauma” and “depression”
Bumrah’s wife further told that Angad does not deserve words like being in a state of depression or any such condition, since he is too young to be understanding those emotions. She felt it is alarming for the society to be posting such things about their son, and also requested the netizens to be honest while sharing any sort of content online.
“He is one and a half years old. Throwing around words like trauma and depression in reference to a baby says so much about who we’re becoming as a community and it’s honestly really sad. You know NOTHING about our son, nothing about our lives and I request you to keep your opinions online true to that. A little honesty and a little kindness goes a long way in today’s world,” she concluded.
