Cricket Meets Celebrity: A New Duo in the Spotlight?
Indian cricket star Yuzvendra Chahal and popular social media personality RJ Mahvash have once again set the internet abuzz after being spotted together at Chandigarh airport, raising fresh speculation about a possible romantic relationship.
The Viral Airport Moment
The sighting happened ahead of the IPL 2025 clash between Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Punjab Kings. A fan-recorded video captured Mahvash and Chahal walking side by side along with other Punjab Kings players as they exited Chandigarh airport. Both looked relaxed and pleased, sparking rumors that their connection goes beyond casual friendship.
Mahvash’s Consistent Support for Punjab Kings
RJ Mahvash, widely known for her engaging social media content and radio presence, has been spotted multiple times this IPL season at Punjab Kings’ matches. Fans were quick to connect the dots, noting that her repeated appearances at games seemed to coincide with Chahal’s strong performances on the field.
The Post-Divorce Context: Timing Raises Eyebrows
The timing of these public outings has particularly intrigued fans, as Chahal only recently announced his separation from influencer and choreographer Dhanashree Verma, whom he married in 2020. The cricketer officially confirmed their breakup on March 20, 2025 — just weeks before Mahvash’s repeated appearances began drawing attention.
Social Media Exchanges Add More Fuel
The duo’s social media activity has also intensified the buzz. Following a standout performance by Chahal in Mohali, Mahvash shared a picture praising him as “a talented man.” Shortly afterward, during another match in Chandigarh, Mahvash posted multiple photos from the stands, including a selfie featuring her and Chahal, along with a heartfelt caption. Chahal’s warm reply, calling her his “spine,” further deepened fan speculation about the nature of their relationship.
On-Field Success Amid Off-Field Speculation
Despite the gossip storm, Chahal has remained focused on his game. After a shaky start to IPL 2025, the seasoned spinner has roared back to form, collecting 8 wickets in 7 matches. His back-to-back match-winning spells have played a crucial role in keeping Punjab Kings’ playoff hopes alive, including a dominant performance against Royal Challengers Bengaluru on their home turf.
What’s Next: Eyes on the Next Match — and Mahvash?
As Punjab Kings prepare for their next match — a rematch against Royal Challengers Bengaluru in New Chandigarh — both cricket lovers and gossip enthusiasts are watching closely. Fans are curious not just about Chahal’s next bowling performance, but also whether RJ Mahvash will once again be seen in the stands, continuing to fan the flames of speculation.
