Yuzvendra Chahal and Dhanashree Verma heading for divorce? Sources suggest split is imminent

According to sources close to the couple, Indian cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal and his wife Dhanashree Verma are reportedly heading towards a divorce. The couple, who have been living apart for the past few months, seem to have decided to go their separate ways. While the exact reasons for their split remain unknown, it is said to be only a matter of time before they make their separation official. The source revealed, "The divorce is on the horizon, and it seems like they have mutually agreed to part ways. They have been leading individual lives for more than three months now."

Choreographer and social media influencer Dhanashree tied the knot with Chahal in a private ceremony held in Gurgaon in December 2020, but social media users noticed that the pair had unfollowed each other on Instagram, leading to speculation regarding the status of their relationship.

Further investigation revealed that pictures and videos of their relationship, including their wedding and posts with each other, were deleted on Chahal’s account, suggesting a rough conclusion to their marriage. However, Dhanashree’s profile continues to have older pictures of her and Chahal. TOI approached the teams of Chahal and Dhanashree but did not receive a comment regarding the matter.

There have been rumours of a potential split for the pair in the past, but Chahal had quickly wiped away any such rumours by stating on his Instagram story in 2022: “A humble request to you all to not believe in any sort of rumors pertaining to our relationship. Kindly, put an end to it.”

34-year-old Chahal has not been in the picture for the international Indian team since his last appearance in August 2023, but was recently on the receiving end of a big-money deal at the IPL 2025 auction as he received INR 18 crore from a reconstructing Punjab Kings, becoming the most expensive spinner in the history of the IPL.
