Dhanashree Verma and Yuzvendra Chahal were granted a divorce on mutual grounds on March 20. In their divorce petition, the couple revealed that they had separated just 18 months after their wedding. However, they did not share a reason behind their decision at the time. A new report claims that their residence became the big bone of contention between the cricketer-choreographer couple.
As per social media personality Vickey Lalwani, Dhanashree Verma and Yuzvendra Chahal ended their marriage because of a difference in their location of residence. He claimed that soon after their wedding in 2020, the couple moved to the cricketer's house in Haryana , where he lived with his parents. A few days after their wedding, Dhanashree expressed a desire for them to move to Mumbai, which was unacceptable to the leg spinner.

In his post, Vickey Lalwani wrote, “After tying the knot, Yuzi and Dhanashree had shifted to stay with Yuzi’s parents in Haryana and came to Mumbai only when they needed to. Yes, this Mumbai-Haryana jhagda was one of the main reasons why this much-in-the-paparazzi-world marriage ended. Yuzi was clear that he wouldn’t uproot himself from his parents’ home and surroundings.” However, neither the couple nor their advocates and family members have confirmed this report yet. In their official statement, Yuzvendra and Dhanashree have maintained that they have parted ways with mutual consent.
On March 20, a Bandra family court granted a divorce to Yuzvendra and Dhanashree. Their divorce proceedings were expedited because of the cricketer's prior commitment to IPL 2025, which commenced on March 22. The couple had asked and were granted a waiver on the mandatory six-month cooling period, which is given in cases for possible reconciliation.
