RJ Mahvash speaks out about Yuzvendra Chahal dating rumours: Here's what she wants everyone to know. 'I am just a girl'
RJ Mahvash
has recently spoken out about the emotional impact of online trolling amid widespread speculation about her relationship with Indian cricketer
Yuzvendra Chahal
. Though neither Mahvash nor Chahal has publicly confirmed the rumours, their frequent interactions and appearances together have fueled media and public curiosity. The constant trolling, Mahvash revealed, took a serious toll on her
mental health
and made her consider stepping away from social media and the public eye altogether.
Emotional Strain of False Accusations
In a candid interview with The Free Press Journal, Mahvash described how the online harassment affected her deeply. She shared that there were moments when she felt overwhelmed and thought about giving up completely. She expressed frustration over the false claims circulating about her, saying, "I was unable to process because some of them were not even true. I was like, 'Why are these people doing this to me, I am just a girl who is trying to live a life? Why are these people being so mean when they don't even know the truth?'"
This led her to imagine retreating from public life to live simply, away from the spotlight, even humorously mentioning a desire to hide in the mountains selling Maggie noodles. Despite this, she clarified that she never sought such attention in the first place, highlighting how the trolling weighed heavily on her emotionally.
The Dilemma of Responding to Rumours
Mahvash also discussed the difficulty in addressing false rumours, explaining that the teams they work with often advise against responding immediately. She said, "Nobody realises this is happening with you. You just sometimes want to clarify that 'yeh jo tum bol rahe ho, yeh sab made up hai, aisa kuch hai hie nahi' (whatever you guys are saying is all made up, nothing like that is there)." While the urge to set the record straight is strong, she pointed out the futility in engaging with everyone spreading misinformation.
Mahvash emphasized that she does not owe explanations to people who are not part of her life or career, stating, "At the end, they are not your responsibility, you don't owe them anything, they are not paying your bills. So, be yourself and don't keep clarifying everything."
Professional Journey and Support
Mahvash recently made her acting debut with the web series Pyar Paisa Profit, which streams on Amazon MX Player. The show is inspired by Durjoy Datta's novel Now That You're Rich… Let's Fall in Love and features a cast including Pratik Yadav and Neil Bhoopalam. Around the series premiere, Chahal publicly showed his support by sharing a story dedicated to Mahvash on social media, further adding to speculation about their closeness.
The rumours about Mahvash and Chahal intensified after they were seen together at a Champions Trophy match in Dubai and multiple times during the IPL season. This attention came shortly after Chahal finalized his divorce from influencer Dhanashree Verma in March 2025, following their 2020 marriage. Despite the rumours, neither has officially acknowledged their relationship, though their public appearances and social media exchanges continue to spark discussions.

'What a joke!': Internet reacts as thrice-divorced Billy Ray Cyrus calls Elizabeth Hurley ‘love of my life'
At 63, country singer Billy Ray Cyrus feels he has finally found the 'love of his life'. On Tuesday, he wished girlfriend Elizabeth Hurley (60) on her birthday with a sweet post but the internet found the words he used for her a little tough to digest. Sharing a photo of Liz sitting in his lap, Billy wrote, 'Happy birthday to the love of my life ❤️.' Both of them smiled brightly looking at something at a distance. She wore a hat and a red shirt while he flaunted his long dark hair in a brown shirt. Fans also wished Liz on her birthday but a few were not sold on Billy's post for her. 'How you two just started dating 😂 love of your life what a joke,' read a comment. 'How many loves of your life have you had in the last 10 years??,' asked another. 'You change the love of your life like your underwear,' read another comment. 'I am sure your kids are happy to hear that 🤦🏼♀️,' a person wrote. " Most, however, were happy to see the couple happy. Billy opened up about his bond with Liz during an appearance on The Ty Bentli Show recently. They first met while filming Christmas in Paradise in 2022 on the Caribbean island of Nevis. Although they didn't share much screen time, Billy recalled feeling a 'chemistry' between them in the few scenes they did have together. 'We just laughed, and it came at a time when I wasn't laughing much. I found it the oddest thing,' he said. Despite their very different backgrounds, Billy was surprised by how strong their connection felt. 'I figured we were so different, but in some very strange way, we had way more in common than not,' he added. Billy admitted he felt intimidated by Elizabeth's fame, describing himself as 'a kid from Flatwoods' trying to act alongside someone like her. Still, it was their shared laughter that stuck with him the most. Once filming ended, however, they lost touch. Billy Ray Cyrus has had several high-profile relationships over the years. He was first married to Cindy Smith from 1986 to 1991, and later to Tish Cyrus from 1993 until their divorce in 2022; they share five children, including Miley and Noah Cyrus. In 2023, he married Australian singer Firerose, but the marriage ended within a year. Liz was in a long-term relationship with Hugh Grant from 1987 to 2000, and the two remain close friends. In 2001, she had a brief relationship with Steve Bing, the father of her son, Damian. She later married Indian businessman Arun Nayar in 2007, but they divorced in 2011. That same year, she got engaged to Australian cricketer Shane Warne, though the engagement ended in 2013.

Parde mein rehne do: Pakistan's cover-up operation after Sindoor strikes
Parde mein rehne do, parda na uthao (Let it remain behind the veil)The iconic Bollywood line has found new life – not in cinema, but the way Pakistan is trying to hide the damage to its air bases caused during Operation Sindoor. Fresh high-resolution satellite images analysed by India Today show a peculiar pattern: tarpaulins. Pakistan is now using them to cover at least three military sites hit during India's Operation Sindoor – Murid, Jacobabad, and Bholari. In some cases, the sheets match the original rooftops, like a well-planned disguise. advertisement At Bholari Air Base in Sindh, high-resolution imagery from June 4, sourced from Maxar Technologies, shows a hangar's roof – visibly damaged earlier – now neatly covered with a material that blends in. The makeover isn't for aesthetics. It's a cover-up, literally. These covers were first identified by Damien Symon, a geo-intelligence researcher at the Intel Lab. Murid base in Punjab tells a similar story. On June 2, a green tarpaulin hides what appears to be a command and control centre struck on May 10. The structure was clearly hit – now it's hidden, hinting at repairs or activity beneath. advertisement But the most telling is a 3-metre-wide crater near a high-value underground site at Murid base. It's now tented over, as if hoping a canvas will erase the evidence of a missile PAF Base Shehbaz, home to Pakistan's F-16s, also shows signs of a clean-up. A June 4 image reveals partial roof covers and missing debris that was visible in earlier May 11 shots. Despite visual proof of extensive hits across nearly a dozen sites, Pakistan has chosen to deny, deflect, and distract. Its strategy: amplify unverifiable claims of downing Indian jets while ignoring the visible scars at home. As if draping tarpaulins and tents can outsmart satellite amid this silence, fanfare continues – including the unprecedented promotion of its army chief to Field the song goes, "Parda jo uth gaya to bhed khul jayega (Secrets will come out if the veil is lifted)." The world has already seen beneath the veil thanks to the commercial satellite pictures. Only Islamabad pretends it hasn't.
