Reportedly, Chahal had agreed to pay Rs 4.75 crore to Dhanashree. However, there was no official confirmation regarding this.
On the reality show Rise and Fall, actress Dhanashree Verma has taken a candid step, speaking openly about her divorce from cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal. The actress addressed months of speculation, firmly denying claims about demanding alimony and reflecting on their four-year-long marriage.
Dhanashree Verma, who is currently competing on Rise and Fall, revisited her split with Yuzvendra Chahal, revealing that rumours about alimony were untrue. She told host Aditya Narayan, “Officially, it has been almost a year. It happened quickly because it was mutual, that’s why when people say alimony, it’s wrong. Just because I am not saying anything, you will go on saying anything? My parents have taught me to only justify to people whom I care about. Why waste time explaining those who don’t even know you?”
When asked about the length of their marriage, Dhanashree shared, “We were married for four years, we dated 6-7 months before that.” On dealing with accusations around alimony, she added, “Eventually, you get hurt when you see that happening. It was not needed. None of it is true. I felt worse wondering why did he do it? It’s okay, I will always keep his respect, that is what I believe in. Now, I don’t think I can date anybody.”

Dhanashree’s journey on the show has not been easy. Last week, she broke down when her character was questioned, saying, “I have never said anything against anyone on the show, yet I never dragged my personal life on the show. I am told I am getting influenced, but that’s not true; I don’t like this environment.”
Yuzvendra Chahal and Dhanashree Verma tied the knot in 2020 in a lavish wedding attended by several cricketing legends. However, after four years of marriage, their relationship came under public scrutiny, leading to one of the most talked-about divorces in the sports and entertainment industry.
