Dhanashree Verma says it took courage to divorce ‘more powerful' Yuzvendra Chahal
Cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal and Dhanashree Verma's personal life grabbed headlines during their divorce. In a recent interview with Humans of Bombay, Dhanashree opened up about her parents' reaction to the divorce and how they appreciated her for taking a 'courageous decision'. Dhanashree Verma talked about her decision to divorce Yuzvendra Chahal. Dhanashree talks about her parents' reaction to divorce with Yuvendra Chahal Dhanashree admitted that the initial phase was very confusing for her as well as her parents, since all of them needed strength to cope with the situation. While she was able to ignore negative comments, it was difficult for her parents to deal with questions from relatives and people around them. In such a delicate time, her friends and team played a crucial role in supporting her. She and her parents relied on each other for strength and managed to get through it together. She further revealed, "There were days when my mother would actually give up and feel sad, and there were times when my parents kept their phones away. It was so overwhelming and not required because already parents feel so much pressure from society. And then when they have to deal with something like this, how do they fix that? There were days I had to strictly tell them Don't use your phones, stop answering calls." Dhanashree added that the only advice she received from her parents and friends was to continue being dignified and not get impulsive. She revealed that her parents kept reminding her that she is good. "My parents kept reminding me that this is not who you are. To even take that decision requires a lot of courage. Knowing that you are with someone who is more powerful than you, to even come to that decision of leaving that partnership requires a lot of courage, and my parents remind me of that every day. They kept telling me how proud they are that I made this decision. It's not easy," she said. Yuzvendra Chahal and Dhanashree Verma's marriage Chahal and Dhanashree met during Covid-19 when Chahal reached out to her for online dance lessons. Their friendship turned into love, and they soon tied the knot in Gurugram in December 2020. However, as per their petition, they separated in June 2022. In February 2025, they filed a petition seeking divorce by mutual consent and were granted a divorce in March this year. During the divorce proceedings, there were rumours that Dhanashree was taking ₹60 crore in alimony. However, her family issued a statement dismissing them as 'baseless claims'. Meanwhile, Dhanashree was most recently seen in a special dance number alongside Rajkummar Rao in Bhool Chuk Maaf. She is now set to make her acting debut with the Telugu dance drama Akasam Daati Vastaava, directed by Sri Sasi Kumar and produced by Dil Raju. More details on the film are awaited.

A strong hit of ‘Captain' nostalgia
As re-releases gain steam, riding on the collective urge to watch an old film again on the big screen, Vijayakant's Captain Prabhakaran is the latest to join the bandwagon. Hitting the screens again this Friday (August 22, 2025), the late star's iconic hit was originally released in 1991. Pencilled in as his 100th film then, the movie became a blockbuster and the moniker Captain stuck with Vijayakant forever. Helmed by R.K. Selvamani, whose earlier Pulan Visaranai with Vijayakant was another bonafide hit, Captain Prabhakaran released, to massive expectations from audiences, on April 14, Tamil New Year's Day. True to the director's trait of using current affairs as a crux in developing a plot, the film dealt with an Indian Forest Service (IFS) officer on the hunt for a smuggler in a jungle. Forest brigand Veerappan was the obvious inspiration and the character Veerabhadran found lustre through the performance of Mansur Ali Khan. At that point in time, Vijayakant was part of the leading quartet that dominated Tamil cinema, with Rajinikanth, Kamal Haasan, and Sathyaraj, being the other top heroes. Carving a niche for himself through his action filmography, Vijayakant found his mark. The star, clad in battle fatigues, lit up posters that were plastered all over South India. Theatres in Madras brimmed with people, as Selvamani's tight screenplay, action blocks, and Ilaiyaraaja's music offered terrific embellishment. The song 'Aattama Therottama' became viral, even if that word did not exist in this sense, in the 1990s. Often, this single was belted out at high volume as minivans carrying college students groaned up the Ghats in Kodaikanal and Ooty. The song and Mansur's performance that had shades of Amjad Khan in Sholay, lent a wild western air to an otherwise quintessential Tamil film. Until that point in Kerala, Arjun was deemed as the 'Action-King' and his Tamil films did solid business. Through Captain Prabhakaran, Vijayakant too endeared himself to the audience beyond the Western Ghats. The movie hinting at Sathyamangalam as its base, was actually shot at Chalakudy in Kerala, with the Athirappilly water falls serving as a looming backdrop. It was no surprise that the dense tropical foliage in that area soon witnessed increased tourist footfalls. Besides thespian M.N. Nambiar, the movie also featured Sarath Kumar, Ramya Krishnan, and Rupini. Years later, there was another film Adharmam starring Murali and Nasser, which also dealt with the Veerappan angle. It was a taut celluloid enterprise and yet in public memory, it is Captain Prabhakaran that still lingers. That Vijayakant's name in the film, was inspired by LTTE supremo Velupillai Prabhakaran, is another vital element in pop culture references. Often, the 100th film was seen as a jinx as many celebrated stars landed duds. However, Vijayakant changed that perception, with a movie that ticked all the commercial boxes and became a celebrated theatre experience.
