After divorce with Nikita, Dinesh found love in India's Squash queen, Dipika Pallikar and decided to give it a shot. At first Dipika didn't like Dinesh and thought the fame would affect her career. They took fitness classes from the same couch. But after a few meets her misconception was cleared and they became friends. 

In an interview, Dipika Pallikal had recalled her first meeting with Dinesh Karthik and had said: 

"In fact, the first time we met was at a marathon some five years ago. After that, we met at the gym and, if I remember, I left for practice without even saying bye to him. Slowly we got to know each other."

Sharing how things had grown between her and Dinesh, Dipika had added:

"We got to know each other at the gym, but there was nothing more, contrary to what most media reports seem to suggest.

“It was February 2013, and I had just won a tournament in Canada while Dinesh was playing domestic cricket in India. I went to Leeds (England) to train for a week and I found him there, coming all the way to see me. That was when I fell for him, realising not many would do something like that. He used to watch me train at the academy and even tried his hand at squash. He played much better than I thought.”

Dinesh proposed Dipika in London after their team won the tournament. In 2013, they exchanged the rings and made it official. They were supposed to be getting married in 2014 but due to some reason it was postponed to 2015. They were blessed with twin baby boys in 2021.
