Indian cricket team's star spinner Yuzvendra Chahal has now made a big disclosure about his personal life. For the first time, Chahal openly expressed his mental state regarding divorce from his ex-wife and social media influencer Dhanashree Verma. He said that this was a period where he had lost himself, and the thoughts of taking his own life started haunting him constantly.
Yuzvendra Chahal broke the silence on divorce.
Chahal and Dhanashree got married in December 2020, and both got divorced in March 2025. Despite keeping themselves away from any kind of negative news for such a long time, even when the marriage reached the verge of breaking, both of them continued to look like a normal couple on social media.
Now, in a podcast with Raj Shamani, Chahal has talked about this period of his life. He said that both he and Dhanashree were struggling with their respective careers. He believes that two ambitious people can live together, but for that, understanding is needed, which has diminished with time.
Chahal revealed about his personal life.
Chahal said in this conversation that he and Dhanashree deliberately hid the problems of their relationship from people. He did not want his personal life to become a subject of public debate. He said, 'We decided that until the final decision is taken, we will continue to look like a normal couple. I used to laugh every time, but was broken from inside.'
Chahal used to think of committing suicide.
Chahal had to face deep mental stress during this period. He said that for about 40 days, he could sleep only for 2 hours, and the rest of the time, he struggled with mental turmoil. Chahal said, 'Many times I felt that it would be better to end everything. I started thinking of ending my life. But my friends pulled me out of that darkness.'
Chahal accused of cheating
During the divorce process, many allegations were made against Chahal, especially regarding cheating. On this, Chahal said, 'People called me a cheater, whereas I never broke anyone's heart. I have two sisters, and I have always respected women. Just because my name was linked with a woman, it does not mean that I am guilty.'
