Yuzvendra Chahal reveals reason behind 'be your own sugar daddy' T-shirt at divorce hearing: ‘Mujhe message dena tha'
Cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal caught everyone's attention when he wore a T-shirt that read 'be Your Own Sugar Daddy' on the day of his final divorce hearing with Dhanashree Verma. Now, Chahal has opened up about what pushed him to wear the T-shirt, admitting he wanted to give out a message. Yuzvendra Chahal and Dhanashree Verma were granted a divorce in March this year. Chahal on 'Sugar daddy' T-shirt Chahal got candid about his personal life and his divorce from Dhanashree Verma when he joined Raj Shamani for a chat on his YouTube channel. During his appearance on the podcast, Chahal was asked about the thought behind wearing the T-shirt. Talking about it, Chahal said, 'Mereko nahi karna tha drama (I didn't want to do any drama). I just wanted to give one message and maine woh de diya (which I gave through the T-shirt).' When prodded further about the reason behind the slogan, Chahal laughed and stated that he hadn't planned to make a statement initially, but something from the other side prompted him to respond. 'Kyunki saamne se kuch cheez hua tha, aur mera pehle mann nahi tha. Fir saamne se kuch hua toh fir maine kaaha ab sambhaal lo, ab mujhe nahi parwah kisi ki. Maine na kisi ko abuse kra, bus mujhe message dena tha (Something happened from the other side, and I didn't initially intend to respond. But then something happened, and I thought, 'Enough is enough, now I don't care about anyone.' I didn't abuse anyone; I just wanted to convey my message)," he shared. During the conversation, he also spoke about the financial settlement during the divorce process, saying that the negotiation process was difficult. 'I had signed a good deal," Chahal said. Yuzvendra Chahal and Dhanashree's marriage Dhanashree and Chahal tied the knot in December 2020 in an intimate ceremony in Gurugram. They met during the Covid-19 pandemic when he approached her for lessons. Divorce rumours surfaced earlier this year after the couple unfollowed each other on Instagram. As per their petition, they separated in June 2022. On February 5, they filed a joint petition before the family court seeking divorce by mutual consent. They were granted a divorce in March this year. There were also rumours that Dhanashree was seeking ₹60 crore in alimony. However, Dhanashree's family issued a statement to the press, dismissing the claims. The statement read, "We are deeply outraged by the baseless claims being circulated about the alimony figure. Let me be absolutely clear—no such amount has ever been asked, demanded, or even offered. There is no truth to these rumours whatsoever. It is deeply irresponsible to publish such unverified information, dragging not just the parties but also their families into unnecessary speculation. Reckless reporting like this only causes harm, and we urge the media to exercise restraint, fact-check before spreading misinformation, and be respectful of everyone's privacy." Now, rumours have been circulating about Chahal dating RJ Mahvash, given their frequent public appearances together.

Director Aanand L Rai DOES NOT support AI-modified ‘Raanjhanaa'; calls it a 'betrayal' of the film's heart and soul: 'None of us were heard'
Aanand L Rai has finally spoken up about the AI-edited version of his 2013 cult classic 'Raanjhanaa', calling it both 'devastating' and 'deeply upsetting'. The film, which starred Dhanush and Sonam Kapoor , holds a special place in many hearts, but the director was shocked to find it had been altered to re-release without his knowledge. Rai took to Instagram and shared a behind-the-scenes photo of Dhanush and Sonam from the original shoot. Alongside the photo, he poured his heart out in a long note, criticising the use of AI to change a film that was made with human passion and teamwork. 'Reckless takeover' without permission He wrote, 'The past three weeks have been surreal, and deeply upsetting. To watch Raanjhanaa, a film born out of care, conflict, collaboration, and creative risk, be altered, repackaged, and re-released without my knowledge or consent has been nothing short of devastating. What makes it worse is the complete ease and casualness with which it's been done.' Calls AI version a 'reckless takeover' Rai stated firmly, 'I do not support or endorse the AI-altered version of Raanjhanaa. It is unauthorised. I had no role in it. Neither did the team that made the film. And whatever it claims to be, it is not the film we intended, or made.' He continued, 'This was never just a film to us. It was shaped by human hands, human flaws, and human feeling. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Buying a Luxury Villa in Dubai: Step-by-Step Guide Villa for sale in Dubai | Search Ads Learn More Undo What's now being circulated is not a tribute. It is a reckless takeover that strips the work of its intent, its context, and its soul. ' AI edit called 'a betrayal' The director didn't just stop there. He expressed how hurtful it is that a machine could change a film's meaning and present it as something new and creative. He wrote, 'The idea that our work can be taken and modified by a machine, then dressed up as innovation, is deeply disrespectful. To cloak a film's emotional legacy in a synthetic cape without consent is not a creative act. It's an abject betrayal of everything we built. ' Fans and industry offer support Even though the situation has been tough, Rai found some peace in the love and support from the audience and his fellow creators. He shared, 'In the middle of all this, the support and solidarity from the industry, our audiences, and the larger creative community has reminded me of what Raanjhanaa stood for in the first place—connection, courage, and truth. I'm deeply grateful for that.' No team members were told Rai made it very clear that not one person from the original team had any idea this AI version was being made. He spoke on behalf of the whole cast and crew, including the writer, composer, lyricist and actors, asking fans to recognise the true heart of 'Raanjhanaa'. He ended his statement with, ' I'm speaking for everyone who helped bring this film to life. The writer, actors, composer, lyricist, editor, technicians, and larger crew. None of us were consulted. None of us were heard. If Raanjhanaa meant something to you, as it did to us, please know that this AI-altered version does not reflect who we were. Nor does it carry the spirit of the film we made.'
