“He Wasn’t the Same After Our Roka” – Dhanashree Exposes Yuzvendra Chahal

Dhanashree Verma, ex-wife of Indian cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal, opened up about their failed marriage in a recent episode of the reality show Rise and Fall.

The show, hosted by Ashneer Grover, has been making headlines for its emotional and controversial moments and this time, it was Dhanashree who became the centre of attention.

While speaking to fellow contestant Arjun Bijlani, Dhanashree broke down as she recalled how things changed between her and Chahal soon after their engagement.

“It was love and arranged both. He wanted to marry without dating, and I wasn’t even planning for it. But the love and affection convinced me,” she shared.

She revealed that their roka took place in August and they married in December 2020. However, within that short span, she noticed a visible shift in Chahal’s behaviour.

“During that time, I travelled with him and stayed together. I started seeing subtle changes in his behaviour. There’s a difference between how people act when they want something compared to when they get it,” she said emotionally.

Dhanashree admitted she kept trying to make things work despite the growing distance.

“Even though I saw him changing, I put my trust in him. My problem is I give too many chances. I tried everything I could and gave my hundred per cent,” she added.

When asked if someone else was involved, Dhanashree hinted there was more to the story but chose not to elaborate. “We’ll talk about it later. I will always be concerned; that care will never go,” she said while fighting back tears.

To recall, Chahal and Dhanashree tied the knot in December 2020 but filed for divorce in February 2025, which was finalised a month later. After their split, Dhanashree joined Rise and Fall, while Chahal has been rumoured to be dating RJ Mahvash.
