Indian cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal and his wife, choreographer Dhanashree Verma, have officially ended their marriage after months of speculation. The couple, who tied the knot in December 2020, cited compatibility issues as the primary reason for their separation during the final court hearing.
Lived Separately for 18 Months
Reports indicate that Chahal and Dhanashree had been living separately for the past 18 months, hinting at ongoing struggles in their relationship. While they refrained from making public statements about their personal issues, sources suggest that differences had been growing between them for quite some time.
Social Media Reactions and Cryptic Posts
Following the legal proceedings, both Chahal and Dhanashree took to social media with reflective messages. Chahal shared a post expressing gratitude and resilience, saying, “God has protected me more times than I can count.” Meanwhile, Dhanashree posted a cryptic message about her journey from “Stressed to Blessed”, implying personal transformation amid the separation.
Alimony and Financial Settlement
One of the most talked-about aspects of the divorce is the alimony settlement. Reports suggest that Chahal has agreed to pay Dhanashree ₹60 crore as part of the financial settlement. However, neither party has publicly commented on the specifics of the agreement.
Public and Media Reactions
The divorce has drawn significant attention, especially given the couple’s strong social media presence. Fans expressed mixed reactions—some supporting their decision to part ways amicably, while others speculated about the factors that led to their split.
Moving Forward
Both Chahal and Dhanashree are expected to focus on their respective careers post-divorce. Chahal, a key bowler for India, will likely channel his energy into upcoming cricket tournaments, while Dhanashree continues her work as a choreographer and influencer.
As they move on from their marriage, their well-wishers hope for peace and success in their individual journeys.
