RJ Mahvash And Yuzvendra Chahal Caught On Camera In London; Viral Video Fuels Dating Rumours
Yuzvendra Chahal and RJ Mahvash have once again sent the internet into a frenzy. While both have repeatedly denied being in a relationship, calling each other 'just friends," fans are reading between the lines — and this time, they might just be onto something.
The buzz began when Mahvash and the Indian cricketer posted pictures from London with strikingly similar backdrops. Now, a video of the two walking together through the streets of the British capital has gone viral. Shot by a travel blogger, @travelshotsbyanna, the clip shows the duo strolling side by side, appearing at ease and clearly enjoying each other's company. This visual confirmation has only added fuel to the ongoing dating rumours.

Earlier in the day, Mahvash shared a playful Instagram story featuring Chahal. 'Finally had a shoot with bina fake accent wale Hindustani chehre in UK," she wrote, poking fun in her signature witty style. She also recounted a light moment from the shoot: 'A random boy literally came to Yuzi and asked, 'What's your skincare routine haahnn?' Yuzi wahan beith ke sharma raha hai usse." Her post sparked laughter — and more speculation.
Interestingly, Chahal appeared to drop a major hint about his relationship status during a recent episode of The Great Indian Kapil Show on Netflix. While sharing the couch with Rishabh Pant and Gautam Gambhir, he was asked by Kiku Sharda about the girl everyone's been talking about. With a smirk, Chahal responded, 'India jaan chuka hai, 4 mahine pehle," — a line that fans took as a not-so-subtle confirmation that Mahvash is indeed the one.
Speculation around the two started making waves shortly after Chahal's marriage with choreographer Dhanashree Verma began facing turbulence. Since then, Mahvash has been spotted frequently at IPL 2025 matches, supporting Chahal's team, Punjab Kings. Not only was she present in the stands, but insiders claim she also stayed close to the team and bonded with players' families — behavior far beyond what one might expect from a casual friend.
Yuzvendra Chahal and Dhanashree Verma officially finalized their divorce on March 20 this year, and ever since, whispers of a growing closeness between Chahal and Mahvash have only gotten louder.
While the two continue to dodge direct questions, their actions — whether it's joint vacations, Instagram shout-outs, or cheeky on-air confirmations — seem to be telling their own story. For now, fans will keep watching (and decoding) every post, every glance, and every viral video.

Humpy reaches Chess World Cup semi-final, Harika-Divya set for tiebreak decider
The Indian charge at the FIDE Women's Chess World Cup stayed strong on Sunday, with Koneru Humpy leading the way into the semifinals after a rock-solid draw against China's Yuxin Song. Having already won the first classical game, Humpy only needed a half-point to go through—and she made it look like business as opponent came out swinging with the trendy Jobava London setup, hoping to unsettle the veteran. But the Indian Grandmaster wasn't in the mood to oblige. She equalised quickly, gave up a couple of pawns for dynamic play, and coolly worked her way back into a balanced endgame. Song huffed and puffed for 53 moves, but Humpy never blinked. One point in the bank, and a semifinal ticket in the the all-Indian quarterfinal between D Harika and Divya Deshmukh played out like a well-matched arm wrestle—no clear winner in either game. With two draws on the board, they'll now head to Monday's rapid and blitz tiebreakers. One of them will join Humpy in the final four, guaranteeing India two semifinalists in Baku. For R Vaishali, though, the campaign ended in heartbreak. She had her chances against former world champion Tan Zhongyi, especially after a promising middlegame. But one slip was all it took for Tan to pounce. The Chinese Grandmaster tightened the screws, and Vaishali couldn't recover in seed Lei Tingjie also advanced, dispatching Georgia's Nana Dzagnidze to complete a Chinese one-two in the three Indians in the quarters and at least two now confirmed in the semis, India's presence at the World Cup continues to make headlines. And with a Candidates spot on offer for the top three, the stakes are only getting higher.- Ends

Shahid Afridi breaks silence on India-Pakistan match fiasco: There is one rotten egg
Controversial Pakistan cricketer Shahid Afridi stoked fire on Sunday, July 20 against the Indian team, which pulled out of their match against Pakistan at the World Championship of Legends (WCL 2025). Multiple players from the Indian team opted out of the exhibition game against Pakistan due to the presence of Shahid Afridi, who had made some problematic statements against India during the tensions between the two to the local media on Sunday, the day that the match was scheduled to be played, Shahid Afridi claimed that even the Indian cricketers were disappointed to not play the game and blamed the pull-out on Shikhar Dhawan, who had publicly announced that he would not play the exhibition match if Afridi was part of the Pakistan line-up. Afridi called Dhawan a 'rotten egg' and blamed him for 'spoiling' the rest of the Indian cricketers. "...Sports brings countries closer. If politics comes between everything then how will you move forward? Without communication, things cannot be solved. The idea for these kinds of events is also to meet one on one. But you know, there is always one rotten egg, which spoils everything," Shahid Afridi told the media on Sunday, July further added fuel to the fire by insinuating that Dhawan was an embarrassment for his nation. He went on to add that the Indian team should have stayed home if they did not want to play cricket at the WCL 2025."They trained a day before the match. I think that they pulled out just because of one guy. Even the Indian team is very disappointed. They were here to play. I am telling you, you should be a good ambassador for the country, not an embarrassment," Afridi said. Shahid Afridi's Double StandardsThe words of sports diplomacy come in sharp contrast to the comments made by Shahid Afridi in the month of April, where he had alleged that the Indian government carried out attacks on its own citizens in Pahalgam."The terrorists continued to kill people in Pahalgam for an hour, and not a single Indian soldier out of 8 lakh showed up. But when they did, they blamed Pakistan," Afridi had told local reporters in Pakistan."India carries out terrorism itself, kills its own people, and then puts the blame on Pakistan," he Sunday, Afridi turned up in another avatar, stating that he was there as an ambassador of cricket and was hugely disappointed that the match did not take place at were very excited to play the second match (vs India). I thought we would be at the ground. We were expecting 17,000–18,000 fans, who would have enjoyed the match. But yeah, it is quite disappointing that we did not play," he said on further claimed that if he had known that the Indian team had problems with his presence, he would have removed himself from Sunday's game."If they did not play for me, I would have stayed home. Cricket should have continued. Who is Shahid Afridi in front of cricket? No one. If they did not want to play why did they come here? Go sit at home and play between yourselves," he India vs Pakistan match at WCL 2025 was supposed to be the first cricketing event between India and Pakistan since Operation Sindoor. However, the match was called off after a massive backlash from Indian citizens on social media, who questioned the former cricketers for participating in an event alongside Pakistan cricketers amid cross-border tensions with the neighbouring state.- EndsTune InMust Watch

Not just humans, dogs too stretch & wag tails in unique yoga session
1 2 Nagpur: Yoga mats were rolled out, not only for people but also for their puppies. On Sunday, a cosy cafe in the city turned into a wellness retreat for a dog yoga session, blending movement, mental calm, and wagging tails! The event drew in participants across age groups, including content creators, students, professionals and even those scared of dogs. "I am scared of dogs, but these pups are so cute. I feel refreshed after the session," said Palak Ahuja, one of the attendees. The session began with light yoga asanas led by a certified instructor and ended with a wholesome cuddle session with puppies brought in by a local animal welfare NGO, DayOff. The event didn't just aim to ease stress; it also carried a cause, raising awareness around the adoption of Indian breed dogs, who are often overlooked in favour of pedigrees. NGO founders, Gunjyot Tuli (19), Arshpreet Puri (18), and Vishakha Adtani (19) said the idea was to provide relief for stressed-out minds. "Everyone's always hustling. Even one hour of peace, movement, and puppy love can refresh someone's mood. That's a win for us," Gunjyot said. Though there were no adoptions of puppies this time, the event sparked conversations. The NGO even offered support to those unsure about long-term commitment, promising that if things don't work out, the dogs could be returned safely instead of being abandoned."We just want to normalise the idea of doing something that feels good without guilt," said Vishakha. "Everyone is stressed: housewives, kids, working adults. Puppies aren't just cute, they're little bursts of serotonin." First-timers Ria Kriplani and Shivani Patil agreed. "We had such a great time. Yoga was so much fun!" "We wanted people to leave with a full heart, and they did," said Arshpreet. With wellness experiences like sound baths and mindful workshops next in the pipeline, DayOff is quietly shaping a new kind of morning culture in Nagpur, one that includes dogs, deep breaths, and doing absolutely nothing for an hour without feeling bad about it.
