Amid relationship rumours with Yuzvendra Chahal, RJ Mahvash calls him a ‘friend' as she responds to trolls: ‘I'm very proud of him'

Indian Express21-06-2025
For a while now, RJ Mahvash has been at the center of swirling rumours about an alleged romantic relationship with cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal. Recently, she took to Instagram Reels to directly address the constant trolling and speculation, and responded to the many trolls directly. In her video, Mahvash began by confronting one of the most common accusations thrown her way: 'Yuzi bhai ne iska career bana diya' (Yuzi bhai made her career). Responding head-on, she says, '2019 se iss industry mein hoon, aao tumko main apna career dikhati hoon' (I've been in this industry since 2019, let me show you my career).
She then presented a montage of her professional milestones, sharing screen space with actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui, appearing with Arbaaz Khan, launching her own production house, and even a headline revealing her second feature film with a reported budget of Rs 45 crore. Another point of attack she addressed was the claim that she doesn't understand cricket. To that, she clapped back: 'Jab tu paida bhi nahi hua tha na chhotu, tabse cricket events host kar rahi hoon' (I've been hosting cricket events since before you were even born, kid).
A montage followed, showing her with cricket legends including MS Dhoni, Harbhajan Singh, Brett Lee, Chris Gayle, and many others. She urged people to 'stop relying on WhatsApp forwards and just search for facts.' Mahvash also responded to those who say she only met celebrities like Chahal because of other influential people. To the comment 'Bade bade logon se mil rahi hai Yuzi bhai ki wajah se' (She meets big celebrities because of Yuzi bhai), she countered with clips of herself with Salman Khan, Karan Johar, Kartik Aaryan, Aamir Khan, Vicky Kaushal, Ayushmann Khurrana, Ananya Panday, Sidharth Malhotra, and many more.
Addressing accusations about her talent, she said bluntly: 'Abbey talent ki baat kar rahe ho, do kitaab likh chuki hoon, scientist baap ki bachi hoon' (You're talking about talent? I've written two books, I'm the daughter of a scientist). And when critics accused her of doing all this just for views, she fired back: 'Nahi, main ye sab brand views ke liye karti thi, jismein 209 million, 100 million sab cross kar chuki hoon. Tum apna batao?' (No, I used to do all this for branded views—and I've crossed 209 million, 100 million views. What about you?). She added, 'Main most-viewed reels ke top 10 mein reh chuki hoon… tum apna batao?' (I've been in the top 10 most-viewed reels… what about you?).

Defending Chahal, she made her feelings clear: 'As far as Yuzi is concerned, I'm very proud of him. Main poori duniya mein chilla chilla ke keh sakti hoon ki jisko main jaanti hoon woh itna talented hai' (I can shout it to the world, he's so talented). She continued, 'Aur tumhara dost hota toh tum bhi chilla chilla ke kehte. Baaki jo mera circle hai, unhi ke saath dekhungi na main' (If he were your friend, you'd say the same. Obviously, I'll be seen with people in my circle). Taking a jab at online critics, she added, 'Ab 'Chandosi ka Chandu' jo comment kar raha hai, nahi hai mera usse connection. Agar hota toh woh bhi mera dost hota' (Now this 'Chandu from Chandosi' who's commenting, he's not connected to me. If he were, he'd be my friend too).
Shared post on Time
She also pointed out that she's shared humble beginnings with many people: 'Woh wale log bhi hain jinke saath milkar room ka 7 hazaar rent bhara hai. Par problem yeh hai ki jo mere gareeb dost hain, unko tum dhyan nahi de rahe ho' (There are also people with whom I've shared Rs. 7,000 rent rooms. But the problem is, you ignore my less-famous friends). She added, 'Bete itni toh tumhari umar bhi nahi hai jitna lamba career raha hai mera' (Kid, your age doesn't even match the length of my career). She ends her reel with a cheeky remark, saying she hasn't even revealed her bank statements yet, laughing it off.
Just weeks ago, Mahvash had also posted a cryptic note on her Instagram Stories that read: 'What's important is that YOU KNOW you have never done wrong to anyone. You have been pure with your intentions always and that you remember you have to return to God. Live by your ethics. Rest what people say is all noise. Cancel it.' In a recent interview with Instant Bollywood, she described Yuzvendra Chahal as 'the most caring person.' She said, 'He is a great and the most caring person you'll ever find. He's always available for his people, so I would steal that quality of his.' During the IPL 2025 season, Mahvash was frequently spotted supporting the Punjab Kings and has been seen with Chahal at several public events, adding more fuel to ongoing dating speculation.

Sanjay Dutt Net Worth: Rolls-Royce, home in Dubai, Rs 64 lakh watch, a peek inside actor's mega fortune, he earns maximum money from...

Sanjay Dutt, who celebrates his 66th birthday today, has had a rollercoaster journey in Bollywood, but there's no denying the actor has crafted a legacy both on and off-screen. Known for his versatile roles, be it the fearless hero or the unforgettable anti-hero, Sanjay has delivered for over four decades and continues to stay relevant in the ever-evolving film industry. But beyond the camera, there's another story: one of luxury, investment, and calculated moves. With an estimated net worth of Rs 295 crore, Dutt's fortune is as dynamic as his filmography. He owns a lavish Rs 40 crore home in Bandra's upscale Pali Hill, Mumbai, and also a second residence in Dubai where his children are currently studying. His lifestyle is proof that Dutt doesn't just act like royalty, he lives like one. Where does the money come from? Aside from acting, Sanjay earns through strategic business investments and brand endorsements. He reportedly charges between Rs 8–15 crore per film. For his Tamil debut, Leo, he pocketed Rs 8 crore. His upcoming film Double iSmart with Ram Pothineni saw his fee rise to Rs 15 crore, per The Times of India. He also owns two production houses—Sanjay Dutt Productions and Three Dimensional Motion Pictures. He's co-owner of two cricket franchises: Harare Hurricanes (T10 League) and B-Love Kandy (Lanka Premier League). He's also invested in startups like Don Town (a sneaker marketplace), a media firm (Cyber Media India), a liquor brand (Cartel & Bros), and has even launched his Scotch whisky called The Glenwalk, priced at Rs 1,550 a bottle. What's inside his garage and on his wrist? Dutt's love for automobiles is well-known. His collection features a Rolls-Royce Ghost (Rs 6.95–7.95 crore), Land Rover Range Rover Autobiography (Rs 2.99 crore), Audi R8 (Rs 2.72 crore), Ferrari 599 GTB (Rs 1.3 crore), and Audi Q7 (Rs 88.66–97.84 lakh). He's even updated his once-famous 4545 number plate to 2999. His bikes? Just as lavish. The Harley-Davidson Fat Boy (Rs 25.68 lakh) and Ducati Multistrada (Rs 21.48–31.48 lakh) scream muscle and money. And the watches? A collection that rivals any high-end showroom: Roger Dubuis Excalibur Double Tourbillon – Rs 64 lakh Rolex Cosmograph Daytona (Leopard dial) – Rs 40 lakh Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore – Rs 40 lakh Rolex Yacht-Master II – Rs 28 lakh Hublot King Power Mexican Independence – Rs 27 lakh It looks like a life of unmatched swag, smart investments, and a legacy that only grows with time. Sanjay Dutt isn't just celebrating another birthday—he's living proof that stardom, when mixed with strategy, becomes an empire.

Mahavatar Narsimha leaked online: Animated action drama hit by piracy amid blockbuster box office run

Mahavatar Narsimha leaked online: Mahavatar Narsimha, which hit the screens on July 25, has emerged as a sensational blockbuster despite being shot on a modest budget and its lack of star power. It has also received positive reviews. Now, in a shocking development, the animated action drama has been leaked online. This has shocked the industry. Mahavatar Narsimha leaked online Hombale Films, the banner behind Salaar and KGF, is currently in the limelight because of Mahavatar Narsimha. The animated blockbuster has impressed several movie buffs. In the latest development, it has been hit by piracy. According to reports, Mahavatar Narsimha has been leaked online on torrent sites such as Movierulz and Filmyzilla. Moreover, reports state that terms such as 'Mahavatar Narsimha watch online' and 'Mahavatar Narsimha Movierulz' are being widely searched. Piracy is a big problem facing the film industry. Previously, titles such as Pawan Kalyan's Hari Hara Veera Mallu and Naga Chaitanya's Thandel were leaked hours after their release. This takes a toll on the box office performance of the films in question. It also dilutes the efforts put in by those associated with the industry. Supporting piracy can also land one in serious legal trouble and leave one vulnerable to financial fraud. Fans are hence advised from accessing these pirated versions on sites like movierulz. They should, instead, watch Mahavatar Narsimha in theatres only. Mahavatar Narsimha box office performance The leak comes at a time when the film is doing well at the Indian box office. The animated action drama has earned Rs 21.85 crore (nett) in India so far. This is an astonishing figure given the moderate budget of Rs 20 crore and its relatively low key. The exemplary performance can be attributed to the healthy word-of-mouth. Most reviews have praised the visuals and the sincere storytelling. About Mahavatar Narsimha Mahavatar Narsimha is the story of the seemingly unstoppable demon king Hiranyakashipu. He vows to avenge his brother Hiranyaksha's death at the hands of Lord Vishnu's Varaha avatar. To achieve this, he adopts the path of austerity and acquires some awe-inspiring powers. He also declares himself to be a god. His young son (Prahlad), however, remains devoted to Lord Vishnu and goes against his wishes. He then remains a devotee despite facing numerous obstacles. This prompts Lord Vishnu's Narsimha avatar to neutralise Hiranyakashipu and restore balance to the universe. The film marks the beginning of an animated cinematic universe.

Rumours swirled for years about their alleged affair, but it was only later, that both stars spoke candidly about the relationship that 'was not a love affair, it was much more,' in Mumtaz's own words.
