Rumours about the Indian cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal’s alleged relationship with radio jockey Mahvash have been making waves for some time now. Speculation first gained traction when the two were seen celebrating Christmas together in 2024.
Soon after, Yuzvendra Chahal was spotted in public with an unidentified woman and social media was quick to claim that she was none other than Mahvash. Their recent appearance at the Champions Trophy match in Dubai only fueled further discussions, with photos and videos of them from the stadium going viral.
Amidst the ongoing chatter, a video surfaced online, allegedly showing Hardik Pandya confirming Yuzvendra Chahal’s relationship with Mahvash. In the widely circulated clip, Hardik Pandya appeared to speak about Yuzvendra Chahal’s personal struggles and expressed gratitude for the positivity Mahvash had supposedly brought into his life. However, it was later revealed that the video was not authentic but rather an AI-generated creation.
The rumours initially intensified in December 2024 when Mahvash shared a festive picture on her Instagram, featuring Chahal alongside her friends. In the caption, she referred to those in the picture as her family, which led many to speculate that she was indeed the “mystery girl” Chahal had been seen with following his separation from Dhanashree Verma.
Addressing the growing speculation, Mahvash took to Instagram to dismiss the rumours, expressing frustration over the baseless claims linking her to Chahal. She questioned the notion that being seen with a person of the opposite gender automatically implies a romantic relationship. Furthermore, she criticised the way some PR teams allegedly attempt to manipulate narratives for their own benefit.
As the speculation continues, the incident highlights how quickly social media can spiral into frenzy over celebrity relationships, often blurring the lines between reality and fiction.
