Yuzvendra Chahal Celebrates Birthday With Rumoured GF RJ Mahvash; Hugs Her In Viral Video

Yuzvendra Chahal marked a memorable 35th birthday in London while playing for Northamptonshire, and the intimate celebration stirred romance talk online. Videos from the night show Chahal and his rumoured girlfriend, RJ Mahvash, sharing a warm hug as momentarily a handful of guests cheered them on.

Yuzvendra Celebrates Birthday With Rumoured GF RJ Mahvash:

The duo seemed to enjoy a cosy dinner in a chic restaurant, and Mahvash sweetly penned a birthday note alongside an unseen snap of Yuzvendra: “Happy birthday Yuzi! Getting older is a part of life and other parts are even worse. So all the best!"

Later, they were spotted strolling around London together. Both shared solo photos taken at the same picturesque spot, further fuelling speculation about their relationship—despite their repeated denials.

Rumours About the Relationship:

Rumours about their relationship began circulating around the time Chahal's marriage to choreographer Dhanashree Verma ended in March 2025. Since then, Mahvash has frequently been seen by Chahal's side, including during this London stint.

Interestingly, Chahal appeared to drop a major hint about his relationship status during a recent episode of 'The Great Indian Kapil' Show on Netflix. While sharing the couch with Rishabh Pant and Gautam Gambhir, he was asked by Kiku Sharda about the girl everyone's been talking about. With a smirk, Chahal responded, “India jaan chuka hai, 4 mahine pehle," — a line that fans took as a not-so-subtle confirmation that Mahvash is indeed the one.

Speculation around the two started making waves shortly after Chahal's marriage to choreographer Dhanashree Verma began facing turbulence. Since then, Mahvash has been spotted frequently at IPL 2025 matches, supporting Chahal's team, Punjab Kings. Not only was she present in the stands, but insiders claim she also stayed close to the team and bonded with players' families — behavior far beyond what one might expect from a casual friend.

About Yuzvendra Chahal and Dhanashree Verma's Divorce:

Yuzvendra Chahal and Dhanashree Verma officially ended their marriage in March 2025, after filing for divorce by mutual consent in a Mumbai court. The two had reportedly been living separately since mid-2022, and while initial court proceedings delayed the process, the Bombay High Court granted an early divorce just before the 2025 IPL season. As part of the settlement, Chahal reportedly paid Rs 4.75 crore in alimony, with half the amount already transferred before the decree. Rumours of a much higher Rs 60 crore demand were denied by Dhanashree's family. Since the split, both have kept a low profile on their personal lives, with Dhanashree focusing on her career in music and digital content, while Chahal continues his cricketing commitments.
