Cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal and choreographer Dhanashree Verma have part ways and have finalised their divorce on March 20. The former couple arrived at court today and later Yuzvendra’s lawyer confirmed confirmed that the divorce has been done. However, Yuzvendra’s t-shirt with caption ‘Be Your Own Sugar Daddy’ has caught the attention of netizens.
Many Yuzvendra’s fans thought that the cricketer’s t-shirt was a message to now ex-wife Dhanashree. For the unversed, the court ordered Chahal to pay Rs 4.75 crore to Dhanashree in the alimony.
It was earlier rumoured that Dhanashree demanded Rs 60 crore alimony from Yuzvendra. Refuting these rumours, her family member told Bombay Times, “We are deeply outraged by the baseless claims being circulated about the alimony figure. Let me be absolutely clear. No such amount has ever been asked, demanded, or even offered. There is no truth to these rumors whatsoever. It is deeply irresponsible to publish such unverified information, dragging not just the parties but also their families into unnecessary speculation. It only causes harm, and we urge the media to exercise restraint and factcheck before spreading misinformation and also be respectful towards everyone’s privacy.”
Meanwhile, The Bombay High Court had ordered the family court to speed up the process of Yuzvendra and Dhanashree Verma. This is because of the cricketer’s commitment with IPL. In most divorce cases, the couples are given six months to sort out their issues. According to reports, Dhanashree and Yuzvendra were already living separately since two and a half years and are getting divorced through mutual consent.
Yuzvendra’s lawyer also interacted with media and confirmed that their marriage has been dissolved. He said, “Divorce has been done, marriage is dissolved.”
Yuzvendra Chahal and Dhanashree Verma got married in December 2020 and had announced their engagement in the same year. The cricketer is now rumoured to be dating RJ Mahvash.
