Dhanashree Verma shared a heartfelt Instagram story, posting a picture of herself holding her grandmother’s hand along with an emotional message. She expressed how much she misses her, thanking her for strength and guidance. To add to the sentiment, she used A.R. Rahman’s soulful song Unthan Desathin Kural as background music.
She wrote, ‘It’s been a year… I miss you so much, Nani. Thank you for protecting me and for giving me the strength to live my life gracefully despite all the odds around us. Your teachings have really helped me today — to always remain dignified, strong, and kind. I love you’.
Dhanashree Verma shared this Instagram story while going through her separation from Yuzvendra Chahal. The couple, who married in December 2020, was loved on social media for their shared moments. However, speculation about their relationship started when they unfollowed each other on Instagram, sparking rumours of a breakup.
Rumors about their separation have been circulating for months. Earlier, Yuzvendra Chahal and Dhanashree Verma unfollowed each other on Instagram, with Chahal also deleting their pictures. Speculation grew stronger when Dhanashree removed ‘Chahal’ from her name, just a day after Yuzvendra shared a cryptic post saying, “New life loading.”
Earlier, the couple had addressed the rumors. In January, Yuzvendra Chahal requested people not to believe baseless speculation, explaining that it had deeply affected him and his family. Dhanashree Verma also responded, stating that her silence was a sign of strength and that she preferred to focus on her truth and values.
Reports confirm that Yuzvendra Chahal and Dhanashree Verma have officially filed for divorce, citing compatibility issues. Despite attempts to reconcile, they chose to separate amicably. The final hearing took place in February 2024 at Bandra Family Court, where they attended a 45-minute counseling session before mutually reaffirming their decision to part ways.
