'4 crores only': Yuzvendra Chahal drops fresh jab at ex-wife Dhanashree Verma? Shikhar Dhawan replies to his comment

Yuzvendra Chahal recently dropped a comment on cricketer Shikhar Dhawan’s Instagram post, and fans are speculating it’s another dig at his ex-wife Dhanashree Verma. The Indian leg-spinner has once again found himself at the centre of a social media buzz, seemingly about the rumored alimony amount he had to pay following his divorce.

Yuzvendra Chahal drops comment on Shikhar Dhawan’s post

Dhawan had shared glimpses from his family’s Diwali and Bhai Dooj celebrations. Chahal commented, “Aapke pose pe copyright maar raha hun bhaiya, 4 crores only (I'm putting a copyright claim on your pose, brother, 4 crores only)." Shikhar joined the banter and replied, “Deal pakki (It's a done deal)."


Many netizens reacted to Chahal’s comment and speculated if it's another dig at ex-wife Dhanashree Verma. One said, “Aap 4 cr se kuch iyada hi obsessed lagte ho (You seem a bit too obsessed with 4 crore),” while another added, “You are very chalak (clever) bro, sirf (only) 4 crore.” Another fan commented, “Yuzi needs to hesitate.”

Yuzvendra Chahal reacted to Delhi High Court ruling

This comes to light amid Chahal’s latest dig at Dhanashree. On his Instagram story, he shared a screenshot of a court verdict that read, “Financially independent wives cannot demand alimony from their husbands."

He added, “Maa Kasam Khao Nahi Paltoge iss Decision Seh," which translates to, “Swear on your mother you won’t go back on this decision." The post, though deleted shortly after, went viral instantly, with fans debating whether it was aimed at Dhanashree or just his way of supporting the court’s ruling.

Details of Yuzvendra Chahal and Dhanashree Verma’s split

Chahal’s post comes months after his high-profile separation from choreographer and influencer Dhanashree Verma. The two married in December 2020 and were one of cricket’s most-followed couples. They split in March this year following proceedings at the Bombay High Court. Reports suggested a settlement of around Rs 4 crore, though neither party officially confirmed the figure.

Dhanashree Verma had earlier reacted to alimony rumours

During her appearance on 'Rise and Fall,' Dhanashree clarified, “Officially, it has been almost a year. It happened quickly because it was mutual, that’s why when people say alimony, it’s wrong. Just because I am not saying anything, you will go on saying anything? My parents have taught me to only justify to people whom I care about. Why waste time explaining those who don’t even know you?"
