RJ Mahvash Addresses the Yuzvendra Chahal Rumours
The playful video with Dhawan arrived just as Mahvash broke her silence regarding her heavily rumoured equation with leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal. Rumours about the duo began circulating last year following Chahal's divorce from choreographer Dhanashree Verma. Speculation intensified when Mahvash and Chahal unfollowed each other on Instagram, leading fans to assume they had gone through a silent breakup.
However, in a recent interview, Mahvash dismissed the romance and breakup narratives. She clarified that she and Chahal were never dating, explaining that she was simply acting as a "support system" and a close friend to him during a difficult personal phase.
Addressing the Instagram unfollow, Mahvash described it as a minor disagreement between friends that was blown out of proportion by the public. She emphasised that she holds no grudges and continues to wish Chahal the absolute best.
A New Venture on ‘Cricket Darbar’
Beyond their viral social media content, Mahvash and Dhawan are also collaborating professionally.
