Anjali Pichai is the wife of the CEO of Google and Alphabet Inc, Sundar Pichai.
Anjali is from Kota, Rajasthan, India. The North Indian was born on January 11, 1971, to her father, Olaram Haryani. She grew up in a Brahmin family in Kota with her brother, Amit Haryani. Her dad remarried Madhuri Sharma on September 23, 2015, when he was 70 and his current wife was 65. Pichai’s mother had passed away two years prior in 2013.
As for her education, she graduated with a B Tech degree in Chemical Engineering from IIT Kharagpur (Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur) in 1993.
Sundar and Anjali Pichai’s Married Life
Anjali Pichai is married to Sundar Pichai. The pair first met during their college years at IIT Kharagpur. They were classmates.
They started as friends but ended up dating each other. During their final year of college, the duo got engaged and married a couple of years later.
After their graduation, Sundar moved to the US for further studies (M.S. in Engineering and Materials Science) at Stanford University. Since he wasn’t financially independent at the time, he couldn’t afford regular international calls. Due to this, the pair had to go several months without talking to each other.

But, that didn’t stop them from being in a relationship. It, in fact, made their relationship stronger. We can all see where they are now, can’t we?
“Back on Campus with Sundar Pichai”
In 2017, Sundar Pichai visited India for both personal and professional reasons. During his visit, he revealed his love story with over 3,500 students at his alma mater. His return to IIT was also live-streamed by Google on YouTube.
While revealing that he and his wife first met at IIT, he also went on to reveal that he had to walk in front of the girl’s hostel just to talk to her during his time.
.Just to go get someone at the girl’s hostel, you had to walk in the front and request someone to call them. And they’d go in and loudly say – Anjali, Sundar is here. It wasn’t exactly a pleasant experience.
