Indian cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal and social media sensation RJ Mahvash are once again in the news. For the last few months, various rumors were flying about the relationship between these two. Has Mahvash taken a place in Chahal’s life after his divorce from Dhanashree Verma? This question was on everyone’s mind. The two were seen together many times, and dating news was also in full swing. But now the veil has been lifted from this secret. Mahvash herself has made it clear in her latest social media post what is the relationship between her and Chahal. So let’s know this story a little closer.
The discussion started from the stadium
Recently, Punjab Kings and Chennai Super Kings clashed in a match of IPL 2025. During this, Mahvash, who was present in the stadium, cheered Punjab Kings fiercely, in which Chahal also plays. She shared a lot of pictures on her Instagram, in which one selfie was special – her smiling picture with Chahal. This photo caught the attention of the fans, but the real limelight was stolen by her caption. Mahvash wrote, “For supporting your people in every good and bad time and standing behind them like a rock. @yuzi_chahal23, we are all for you.” This emotional message made the fans wonder if this relationship has gone beyond friendship?
Mahvash called it friendship
Mahvash did not make the fans wait long to answer their questions. She shared an Instagram story and made it clear that her and Chahal’s relationship is only of friendship. In the story, she wrote, “Here to support the Kings (Punjab Kings) this year, because we dosti tameez se nibhate hain hum bhai.” This ‘brother’ touch put an end to all the rumours. Mahvash proved that she is Chahal’s friend, and there is no romantic connection between them. Chahal also shared this post on his story and wrote, “You guys are my backbone. Thanks for always keeping me up.” This brother-sister bond of both of them gave relief to the fans, but also gave a chance to have fun.
Fun reactions of fans
After this revelation of Mahvash, there was a flood of comments on social media. One user jokingly wrote, “New Bhabhi wahi?” While someone taunted, “Dhanashree must be watching from fake ID.” A fan teased Chahal and said, “You have fun brother Chahal.” At the same time, someone wrote in praise of Mahvash, “The girl is fast brother, she is playing well.” Another user quipped, “Ticket confirmed, Nacho Re!” It is clear from these fun comments that fans are in the mood to have fun about this friendship, even if the hope of romance is broken.
Chahal and Mahvash’s meeting
The friendship of Chahal and Mahvash started making headlines when they were seen together during Christmas celebrations in December 2024. After this, Mahvash was also seen in the stands with Chahal in the final of ICC Champions Trophy 2025. These rumours intensified after Chahal’s divorce from Dhanashree (finalised on 20 March 2025). But Mahvash had earlier also clearly stated in an interview that she is single and will date someone only with the intention of marriage. Their friendship still remains a matter of curiosity for the people.
What is the truth?
This post of Mahvash makes it clear that there is only a strong friendship between Chahal and her. Chahal is performing brilliantly for Punjab Kings in IPL, and Mahvash is there to encourage him. Where fans were expecting romance, this friendship came to the fore. But the way both of them are seen supporting each other on social media is an example of their bonding.
