Dhanashree Verma, Yuzvendra Chahal and RJ Mahvash
Dhanashree Verma and Yuzvendra Chahal caught a lot of attention for their relationship and their messy divorce. During her recent stay in the show Rise and Fall, Verma was seen having a vulnerable conversation with Arbaz Patel, wherein she seemingly confirmed Yuzvendra's rumoured romance with RJ Mahvash.
In the video going viral, Arbaz told Dhanashree that he knows Yuzvendra Chahal's current partner very well. Surprisingly, instead of denying the cricketer's new love interest, Dhanashree said that she has a lot of tea to spill. Arbaz said, "Abhi jiske saath hai main usko bohot acche se jaanta hoon."
Dhanashree replied, "Chodo, mujhe unki baat nahi karni." Arbaz further continued, "Nahi, mujhe aisa sunne main aata hai ki aapne cheat kiya and allâ¦" Dhanashree went on to explain, "Voh toh phailayenge na⦠faltu baat⦠sab negative PR, isko neeche karo. Ek darr rehta hai na ki main na kabhi muh khol doon, toh pehle kaise dabaye insaan ko. Main bataungi na ek ek point tohâ¦"
Netizens believe Dhanashree's remarks are a confirmation of Yuzvendra Chahal and RJ Mahvash's romance. Fans were curious if Chahal cheated on Dhanashree, as many asked her to speak her truth. One person on Reddit wrote, "SPILLL MAN. That guy dragged her through mud; she should seriously expose him."
Another comment said, "In this country, people treat cricketers as God, so anything against them is false. Anyway, it's always easier to blame women, and Dhanashree said in the show she won't say anything about it as she respects the relationship she had with him." One user even wrote, "But isn't it evident that Yuzi cheated on her? He was spotted at a hotel with RJ Mahvash even before the divorce happened. He is with her all the time. Surya Kumar Yadav's wife supported Dhanashree."
One comment suggested, "People always loved to blame women. I always loved Natasha and Dhanashree, and people are so vile judging their personal lives. I am an avid cricket fan, but the hate they got is immense, which is so heartbreaking. Both Hardik and Chahal are seen publicly with their girlfriends. Imagine the outrage if Natasha or Dhanashree went out with a man."
As for Chahal and Mahvash, its been a while since their romance rumours have been rife. During a chat with Raj Shamani, Chahal denied dating Mahvash saying, "No, there's nothing. People can think whatever they want to think." Chahal recounted how online speculation took a toll on both of them. "For the first time, when I was seen with someone, people started linking us right away."
"Even though she clarified it, it was very hard for her. She was called a homewrecker⦠people said really nasty things. I felt terrible," he added. Chahal revealed that Mahvash had supported him during one of the darkest phases of his life, and he felt terrible to see her dragged into unnecessary controversies.
