Yuzvendra Chahal, one of India’s top spinners, and his wife Dhanashree Verma, a well-known choreographer, are back in the spotlight—this time, not for happy reasons. The couple, who tied the knot on December 11, 2020, are now surrounded by rumors of a potential divorce. Speculations are rife, especially after their recent social media activity caught everyone’s attention.
What Triggered the Divorce Rumors?
The buzz around their relationship began when both Chahal and Dhanashree unfollowed each other on Instagram. Chahal has also deleted all pictures featuring Dhanashree from his profile. Interestingly, while Dhanashree has also unfollowed Chahal, she has not removed their photos together from her profile, adding more fuel to the fire.
Adding to the speculation, a report by The Times of India suggests that their divorce is already final, with just a formal announcement awaited. However, neither Chahal nor Dhanashree has commented publicly about the rumors so far.
A Love Story That Won Hearts
Chahal and Dhanashree’s love story became popular when Dhanashree shared their journey during an episode of Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa-11. According to her, the two met during the COVID-19 lockdown when Chahal approached her for dance lessons. Their professional interaction soon turned into friendship and later blossomed into love.
The couple’s wedding in December 2020 was a dreamy affair, but trouble seems to have crept into their relationship in recent years.
The Signs of Trouble
The first signs of cracks in their relationship appeared in 2023 when Chahal shared a cryptic story on his social media with the caption, “New life is coming.” Around the same time, Dhanashree removed the surname “Chahal” from her Instagram profile, reverting to her maiden name, Dhanashree Verma. This move sparked widespread speculation about their relationship.
While Chahal denied the divorce rumors at that time, the latest developments—unfollowing each other and deleting photos—have reignited the conversation.
Chahal’s Cricket Career in a Rough Patch
Apart from personal challenges, Chahal’s cricket career has also seen a slump. He was part of the Indian squad during the T20 World Cup 2024 but did not play a single match. His last ODI appearance for India was in January 2023, and he last played a T20 match in August 2023. Currently, he is out of the Indian team, adding another layer of complexity to his life.
What’s Next for the Couple?
While fans and media await an official statement from Chahal or Dhanashree, the rumors continue to grow. Their silence on the matter has only fueled the curiosity of their followers.
Conclusion
Yuzvendra Chahal and Dhanashree Verma’s relationship has always been under the public eye, from their dreamy wedding to their rumored troubles. Whether these divorce rumors hold any truth or not, only time will tell. For now, fans can only hope for clarity and resolution from the couple soon.
