Yuzvendra Chahal Hits Back at Ex Dhanashree Over Rs 4 Cr Alimony, Says: “Maa Kasam Khao…”

Indian cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal is once again making headlines, but this time for his personal life rather than his on-field exploits.

The leg-spinner sparked a social media buzz after sharing an Instagram story that appeared to reference his ex-wife, Dhanashree Verma, and a recent Delhi High Court ruling. Chahal posted a screenshot of a verdict stating, “Financially independent wives cannot demand alimony from their husbands,” accompanied by the caption: “Maa Kasam Khao Nahi Paltoge iss Decision Seh,” roughly translating to, “Swear on your mother you won’t go back on this decision.” The post, which was deleted shortly after, went viral instantly, with fans speculating whether it was aimed at Dhanashree or merely Chahal endorsing the court’s judgment.

This social media stir comes months after Chahal and Dhanashree, who married in December 2020, finalized their high-profile divorce in March 2025. Reports had suggested a settlement of around Rs 4 crore, though neither party publicly confirmed the figure. The timing of Chahal’s post reignited discussions around the breakup, with fans reacting strongly — some calling it a “savage move,” while others urged him to “move on gracefully.”

Amidst the personal life chatter, Chahal also appeared in a lighthearted Instagram reel with former Indian opener Shikhar Dhawan and influencer Sophie Shine. In the video, Dhawan jokingly tells Chahal, “Teri bhi shaadi karva denge beta,” leaving the spinner humorously embarrassed. The clip, captioned “Ek baar phir se dulha banne ka mann hai beta… tu ruk ja thoda,” quickly went viral, highlighting Chahal’s playful side and camaraderie with teammates.

Despite the social media whirlwind surrounding his personal life, Yuzvendra Chahal continues to engage fans with his wit, showing that both on and off the field, he knows how to stay in the spotlight.
