India Jaan Chuka Hai: Yuzvendra Chahal Cryptically Confirms Relationship With RJ Mahvash Amid Claiming To Be Just Friends
Indian leg spinner Yuzvendra Chahal has been the talk of town recently, not for his bowling records or on field brilliance but for his dating life. Notably he separated with his wife Dhanashree Verma recently but has been the subject of dating rumors involving popular RJ and social media influencer RJ Mahvash. While both have repeatedly claimed to be "just friends," their frequent public appearances and undeniable chemistry have kept the gossip mill running. From Mahvash supporting Punjab Kings frequently in IPL 2025 to them posting different stories which caught people's eye. The speculation gained fresh momentum during a recent episode of The Great Indian Kapil Show on Netflix. Yuzvendra Chahal, Gautam Gambhir, Rishabh Pant and Abhishek Sharma appeared in the third episode of the third season of the entertainment show. When asked about the mystery woman in his life, Chahal cheekily replied, 'India jaan chuka hai,' leaving the audience amused. Teammate Rishabh Pant added to the fun by labeling him a 'free man,' further stoking the conversation. Playful Teasing on Kapil's Couch The light-hearted banter continued when Krushna Abhishek—dressed in drag—sat beside Chahal and affectionately dubbed him 'Juicy Chahal.' Chahal laughed and responded, 'Bahut juicy hai,' while Krushna nudged Kapil Sharma to consider things from a woman's point of view. Krushna didn't hold back as he teased Chahal about his online camaraderie with Mahvash, saying, 'Darrte kyu ho? Baaki Instagram par dekha hai, darrte toh nahi zyada,' referencing their visible and playful social media interactions. From IPL Stands to Advertisements: The Timeline of Rumors Rumors surrounding Chahal and Mahvash didn't surface out of nowhere. Observant fans have spotted Mahvash supporting the cricketer at IPL matches even those he missed due to injury. The two have been seen together at multiple events, private dinners, and even shared screen space in a recent advertisement, all of which contributed to the growing buzz. While Mahvash has denied any romantic involvement in past interviews, the frequency of their joint appearances has made it difficult for fans to ignore the signs particularly after the pair were spotted together during a Champions Trophy match in Dubai. Chahal's Divorce Finalized Just Before IPL 2025 Yuzvendra Chahal's divorce from Dhanashree Verma was officially granted by the Bandra family court on March 20, 2025, mere days before the start of IPL 2025. The couple had originally separated in 2022, and amid their professional obligations, they jointly requested the court to waive the mandatory six-month cooling-off period for reconciliation—a request that was approved. The first hints of trouble between Chahal and Dhanashree emerged through cryptic social media posts, which coincided with the earliest sightings of Mahvash with the leg-spinner. Since then, the narrative around Chahal's love life has evolved rapidly, with fans and media speculating whether this friendship with Mahvash is transitioning into something more

Ranbir Kapoor to play triple role in Ramayana? He will be portraying the role of Lord Ram and... Ever since Nitesh Tiwari's 'Ramayana' video announcements have come out, fans are counting the days until they can see Ranbir Kapoor portraying the role of Lord Ram. The 3 video announcement came out on 3rd July with just 7 seconds of actual footage from the film. While the glimpse duration was too less to draw any firm conclusion, fans are convinced that Ranbir Kapoor will again be swooning them away with his impeccable performance. Besides this, another report of him portraying 3 different mythological roles is doing the rounds. Ranbir Kapoor's Role in Ramayana As per a previous report, Ranbir was never supposed to play only the role of Lord Ram. Sources suggest that he was also approached to play the role of Maharishi Parashurama, who is a warrior who confronts Ram during Sita's Swayam Vara. As per the original story, Parashurama is upset that Ram has broken Lord Shiva's bow. So, he challenges him to aim an arrow at Lord Vishnu's bow. When Lord Rama does this too, then Parashurama realises that he is standing in front of the avatar of Lord Vishnu himself. Ranbir will be seen portraying this intense encounter from both sides, with the same face yet a completely different persona. According to sources, the makers have spent enough money and done immense work on Ranbir's look as Parashurama so he looks unrecognisable. The transformation is so radical that even the crew member couldn't easily identify. Ranbir Kapoor's Triple Role Besides this, speculations of Ranbir's triple role have also started making waves. As per the reports, the teaser suggests in the opening shot of the teaser, Vishnu's face resembles Ranbir, suggesting theories that he will also be playing the role of Vishnu. While neither Nitesh Tiwari nor any producer has confirmed these rumours, social media is convinced that Ranbir Kapoor would be playing triple role in this film. With a lavish budget, these 2 part films' high ambition is made on Rs 835 crores and Rs 700 crores respectively. With this staggering budget, larger-than-life visuals, and international VFX, Ramayana is all set to redefine Indian filmmaking.
