Seema Haider-Sachin Meena love story
For those unaware, Seema fell in love with Greater Noida’s Sachin Meena while on the online gaming platform PUBG and later “illegally” crossed several international borders to be with him. She has now become a vegetarian and is quickly learning to mold herself according to Hindu traditions and customs – all for love. Ever since coming from Pakistan, Seema Haider has been influenced by the Indian culture and lifestyle. Seema has not only converted to Hinduism, but has also given up her favorite food – chicken biryani, meat and fish. The Pakistani ‘Bhabhi’ is trying hard to embrace Indian culture wholeheartedly and is doing everything possible to adapt herself to the Indian society.
According to media reports, Seema Haider has converted to Hinduism and wears a Radhe-Radhe bracelet around her neck. They can be seen greeting guests with folded hands, touching the feet of elders to seek blessings and engaged in prayer. Seema, 30, said she has adopted a vegetarian lifestyle like Sachin’s family and wants to live the rest of her life here in India.
The Pakistani woman made headlines after authorities arrested her and 25-year-old Sachin Meena on July 4. While Seema was accused of illegally entering India, Sachin was booked for harboring an illegal immigrant. Seema was accused of illegally entering India without a valid visa via Nepal along with her four children under the age of seven to live with her boyfriend Sachin. A court in Uttar Pradesh’s Greater Noida granted bail to both on Friday.
How did Seema and Sachin meet?
The love story of the couple is as interesting as a typical Bollywood potboiler. The two fell in love with each other while playing the online game Player Unknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) during the COVID-19 pandemic. They met and got married in Nepal earlier this year in March.
Narrating her story to reporters after coming out of jail, Seema said, “It was a very long and painful journey. I was also very scared. I first went from Karachi to Dubai, where we waited for 11 hours and could not sleep. Pie.” After that we left for Nepal before going to Pokhara, where I met Sachin.
After that she went back to Pakistan, while Sachin returned to India from Nepal. On reaching Pakistan, Seema, who claimed to have a rift with her husband, sold a plot for 12 lakh Pakistani rupees and arranged flight tickets and Nepal visas for herself and her four children.
In May, she reached Nepal via Dubai and spent some time in the Himalayan nation’s tourist town of Pokhara. She then took a bus from Kathmandu to Delhi and reached Greater Noida with her children on May 13, where Sachin had arranged for her to stay in a rented house without revealing her Pakistani identity.
How did their love story unfold?
Their cross-border love story came to an end after he was arrested and jailed on July 4. After getting bail from the court, Seema said that she will now focus on paperwork to make her move to India official. She also said that she wanted to return to Pakistan and cited strict rules for women in her country and potential danger to her life.
Seema said, “No one has brought me to India by persuasion, I have come here of my own free will for the sake of love.” In an interview to the BBC, Seema Haider said that she would rather cut her throat than return to her homeland. Or would like to eat poison. Seema also revealed that she was forced to marry Ghulam, her Pakistani husband who worked in Dubai, at a very young age.
Sachin, who in turn works at a grocery shop, said that he wanted to stay in Greater Noida with Seema and her children. The two also said that they would contact lawyers to find a way to legalize his stay in India. Seema said that she would accept Hinduism. Sachin told reporters that they would soon take a dip in the holy Ganges together to start their new journey.
Twist in Seema and Sachin’s love story
Adding a twist to their love story, Seema’s husband, Ghulam Haider, who lives in Saudi Arabia, through a video message has appealed to the Indian government to help reunite him with his wife. In the video, he says that he came to know through Indian media that his wife and children are in Noida.
