When Yuzvendra Chahal revealed Dhanashree Verma demanded diamonds after a fight; throwback VIDEO goes viral amidst their latest comments

Time of Indiaa day ago
Cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal and Dhanashree Verma are in the news again. The duo separated officially got divorced in March this year with their final hearing happening right before the IPL 2025 kick-started.
However, reports suggest that they were living separately since June 2022. While earlier both Yuzvendra and Dhanashree remained silent about their divorce, their recent comments have bought their equation in public eye again. The cricketer had appeared on a podcast and spoke about it and also broke silence on wearing a 'Be your own sugar daddy' T-shirt.
Now Dhanashree has finally broken silence on Yuzvendra wearing this t-shirt and him clarifying this further on a podcast.
She said during a chat with Humans Of Bombay, "Even though we were mentally prepared, I got so emotional. I started howling in front of everybody. I just kept crying. And he (Chahal) walked out first. Before I even knew about this T-shirt stunt, we were all aware that people were going to blame me for the divorce.
You know that people are going to target the woman in these situations"
Taking a jibe at Chahal, she added, 'Are bhai, WhatsApp kar deta.

T-shirt kyun pehna hai? (You could've just sent a message. Why wear the T-shirt?)' Meanwhile, amidst their latest comments, Dhanashree's old video when she participated in 'Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 11' has gone viral. When they were married, she was a contestant on the show and Chahal had made an appearance to cheer for her in one of the episodes.
Dhanashree, a dentist-turned-choreographer, first bonded with Yuzi during the COVID-19 lockdown when she taught him dance for nearly two months.
Their chemistry eventually blossomed into a love story. Later, she participated in 'Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 11', with Yuzi making a special appearance to cheer her on.
During one of the episodes, hosts Gauahar Khan and Rithvik Dhanjani set up a fun game where both Yuzi and Dhanashree had to guess words written on placards within 10 seconds. When Dhanashree held up her placard, it read 'Diamond.' Struggling to make her guess, Yuzi cheekily hinted: "Joh humesha aap demand karte ho.
Jab bhi ladayi hoti hai uske badd aap kuch na kuch demand karte ho."
Dhanashree looked confused at his remark and asked 'what?' to which Yuzi pointed to his diamond earrings. He then clarified that she had never actually asked for diamonds. His playful presence on the show added a dose of humor, especially when he teased that Dhanashree always asked for something after their fights—while she thought he was referring to a simple 'sorry.'
For those not in the know, Chahal had said on Raj Shamani's podcast about the T-shirt, "I didn't want to do any drama. I just wanted to give one message, which I gave [through the T-shirt]. Something happened from the other side, and I didn't initially intend to respond. But then something happened again, 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.

Justin Herbert's budding romance with Madison Beer sparks distraction debate for Chargers ahead of the NFL season

Justin Herbert is reportedly dating Madison Beer, sparking considerable buzz (Getty Images) NFL quarterbacks and celebrity romances are hardly a new pairing, but the latest buzz surrounds Los Angeles Chargers star Justin Herbert and pop singer Madison Beer. The two have been spotted together recently, with Beer even attending Herbert's December win over the Broncos, fueling speculation about a blossoming relationship. Why Justin Herbert dating Madison Beer is drawing so much attention Herbert is the face of a Chargers team now under Jim Harbaugh's demanding leadership, tasked with ending a Super Bowl drought that dates back to 1994. Off the field, he's known for being low-profile, so linking up with Beer — a Grammy-nominated singer with more than 60 million followers across Instagram and TikTok — is a notable shift into the celebrity spotlight. Herbert's own social media footprint, at just over 600,000 Instagram followers, pales in comparison, underscoring the star power imbalance between the two. For Gen Z audiences especially, Beer is a household name, first discovered by Justin Bieber and now one of music's biggest young performers. For Herbert, that attention can mean a brighter spotlight, and naturally, some critics wonder if it could interfere with his football focus. Looking at NFL history shows celebrity relationships don't always derail success Skepticism around quarterbacks dating famous partners is nothing new. Tony Romo and Jessica Simpson once drew headlines, while Russell Wilson, Jay Cutler, and Aaron Rodgers were often in the gossip pages. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 15 Most Beautiful Women Ever Today's NYC Undo But as history shows, elite athletes can thrive under the spotlight. 'Distractions? Hardly. Brady won seven Super Bowl rings. Kelce is a first-ballot Hall of Famer. Allen is the NFL's reigning MVP,' one analyst pointed out, reminding fans that a high-profile love life doesn't necessarily translate to poor performance. If anything, being in a stable and supportive relationship can sometimes boost an athlete's confidence and balance. For Herbert, who is entering a pivotal chapter of his career with a new coach and big expectations, having someone in his corner may actually prove grounding rather than disruptive. Also Read: Who has Madison Beer dated before? Pop star's love life resurfaces amid Justin Herbert dating rumors At the end of the day, the Chargers need Herbert to deliver on the field. And as one insider quipped, 'On the field, let's let Justin cook. Off it, give him some room to canoodle.' For now, the romance may be less about distraction and more about Herbert simply enjoying a personal life that matches the intensity of his professional one.

An Open Letter to the Ganesh pandals all across Mumbai

Dear office-bearers of Mumbai's Ganesh pandals, As Aamchi Mumbai gears up for another Ganeshotsav, the public celebration of a festival that has long defined our city's identity and spirit, I write to you with a sense of both deep respect and growing concern. For generations, you have been custodians of a tradition that is far more than a religious event. It is a unifying force, a cultural cornerstone, and a powerful symbol of being a community. However, a new trend casts a shadow over the public celebration of our beloved festival. The sacred act of devotion is increasingly being overshadowed by a new, transactional approach. We are seeing the very essence of faith getting commodified. This shift threatens to dismantle the community-driven spirit that Lokmanya Tilak so carefully nurtured over a century. You Can Also Check: Mumbai AQI | Weather in Mumbai | Bank Holidays in Mumbai | Public Holidays in Mumbai | Gold Rates Today in Mumbai | Silver Rates Today in Mumbai The festival was born from a desire for social unity, not commercial gain. Yet, today, the focus seems to have shifted. Lavish decorations, soaring budgets, along with the pursuit of influencers and celebrity endorsements often take precedence over genuine devotion. This has led to the devotees who are the very heart and soul of this festival being made to feel unwanted or outsiders who are only a headcount in the pandal. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Passive Income Ideas Sitting at Home Mone Click Here Undo The practice of inviting social media influencers and celebrities for "exclusive darshans" creates a culture that stands in stark contrast to the festival's ethos of equality and unity. Everyone, regardless of their status, should have an equal opportunity to seek Bappa's blessings. What is perhaps even more alarming is the recent trend of asking devotees to 'book puja slots.' To treat a sacred ritual like a concert ticket or a limited-time offer is to fundamentally misunderstand its meaning. Devotion is not a product to be sold; it is a profound, personal connection that should be accessible to all, freely and without condition. I understand the need for pandals to contain the crowds to have limited puja slots, but when pandals invite influencers to increase headcount, this overcrowding is going to be natural. The true legacy of a Ganpati pandal is not measured by its sponsorships or the number of famous faces it attracts. Nor is it measured by the followers, likes and comments on its social media handles. It is measured by the sense of belonging it fosters, the people it brings together, and the positive impact it creates on the community. Countless smaller, local mandals continue to embody this spirit, reminding us that a grand celebration is not about opulence, but about having a grand heart. I fondly remember as a child, people from pandals used to involve households and families in the decoration of the pandals, volunteering and performing puja. There used to be some competition held every day organised by the local Sarvajanik Ganeshotsav Samiti in my area - right from fancy dress to singing and dance competitions. There used to be even cooking contests. There are also documented stories of those legendary pandals of Lalbaug-Parel organising speeches of freedom fighters, providing a stage to upcoming artistes and so on. This was the true essence of the festival - getting the community together. This is what made us love the public celebrations of Ganeshotsav. But the question we need to ask ourselves is - will our children remember the and love this festival the same way we did? As caretakers of this great tradition, Ganesh pandals have an all-important role to play. The festival is already commercialised, but I urge the pandals to save it from the brink of commodification. Let the public celebration reclaim its true spirit by going back to the very values that made this festival so powerful in the first place. Let's ensure that this Ganeshotsav is a celebration for all, a festival where everyone feels welcome, where devotion triumphs over money, and unity prevails over socio-economic inequality and the feeling of community over commodity. Sincerely. (Devendra Pai was born and raised in Mumbai and has a deep-rooted connection with the city's Ganeshotsav. He is at present assistant professor of the University of Delhi) Stay updated with the latest local news from your city on Times of India (TOI).
