Radio jockey and social media influencer RJ Mahvash grabbed headlines after attending the India vs New Zealand Champions Trophy final in Dubai on March 9 alongside Indian cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal. Their appearance together reignited dating speculations, especially as rumors of Chahal’s troubled marriage with choreographer Dhanashree Verma continue to circulate. However, neither Chahal nor Dhanashree has confirmed any separation or divorce.
Mahvash and Chahal had previously sparked dating rumors during Christmas 2024, but she had dismissed the speculation back then. This time, however, Mahvash further fueled gossip by sharing a series of pictures with Chahal from the stadium on March 10.
The buzz around Mahvash has significantly boosted her social media presence. Before the Champions Trophy final, she had 1.5 million Instagram followers. Within two days after the match, her follower count skyrocketed to 2.1 million—an increase of over 600,000.
Meanwhile, Dhanashree Verma’s social media activity has also caught attention. On March 10, she shared a cryptic Instagram story that read, “Blaming the women is always in fashion,” sparking curiosity among fans. This post came after she faced trolling for her pictures with choreographer Pratik Utekar, which had led to speculation about her own relationship status.
Chahal and Dhanashree tied the knot in December 2020 in an intimate ceremony in Gurugram. Dhanashree’s lawyer has clarified that her divorce from Yuzvendra Chahal is still sub judice and has not been finalized yet. Additionally, her family has dismissed reports claiming a Rs 60 crore alimony settlement, calling them baseless.
