The story dates back to 2007-08 when they started travelling for bigger tournaments. Saina was very guarded about her personal life but slowly she started thanking Kashyap on social media for motivating and pushing her to do better.

The first time was when she thanked him during Commonwealth Games and then during the Asian Games when she won bronze.

They started sharing photos of them meeting various friends. This gave away to people doubting and speculating the nature of their friendship.
