RJ Mahvash lauds Yuzvendra Chahal for his warrior spirit in a special post after IPL 2025 final

Following Punjab Kings' IPL 2025 loss to Royal Challengers Bengaluru, RJ Mahvash posted an encouraging message for Yuzvendra Chahal on Instagram. Amidst rumours of a relationship, sparked by his divorce from Dhanashree Verma, Mahvash's support for the PBKS cricketer has garnered attention.

Mahvash lauded Chahal's "warrior spirit" in a detailed post, disclosing that the cricketer played through three fractures during the IPL season. “They fought, stayed and played till the last match! 👏🤍 And special post to @yuzi_chahal23 because what people don’t know is that his ribs got fractured in the second match only and his bowling finger got fractured later, this guy played the entire season with 3 fractures! We all have seen him screaming and crying in pain but have never seen him giving up!" she wrote.

“I mean what warrior spirit you have man 🫡 The team kept fighting till the last ball! It was nothing but an honour to be a supporter of this team this year! Well played boys 👏 All the people in these pictures have my heart 🥹See you next year!" Mahvash added.

Mahvash, rumored to be dating Chahal, then congratulated Virat Kohli's RCB, ending her post with a message of support. “Everyone played and worked hard! Cricket , and IPL ..my God again! Truly a festival for us indians 🫶🏻??"

Mahvash shared photos from the Punjab Kings' post-IPL 2025 final celebration, including pictures with Chahal, Preity Zinta, and Shreyas Iyer.

Amidst the dating rumours, Mahvash has addressed the topic in interviews, clarifying, "She and Chahal are just friends." Chahal, following his separation from Dhanashree Verma, has not publicly commented on the rumours.

Mahvash is starting a new phase in her career. She recently made her acting debut in Pyar Paisa Profit, a series adapted from Durjoy Datta’s novel, Now That You’re Rich… Let’s Fall In Love. The show, streaming on Amazon MX Player, stars Pratik Yadav, Mihir Ahuja, Neil Bhoopalam, Nitish Sharma, Shivangi Khedkar, and Ashish Raghav.

It's worth noting that Yuzvendra Chahal was previously married to Dhanashree Verma, a popular choreographer and social media influencer. They married in 2020 after nearly five years of dating but decided to part ways and officially divorced in March of this year.
