The Indian bowler revealed that he always speaks politely and jokes around with everyone, but some people start taking him for granted, and certain things do hurt him sometimes.
Certain things hit you hard and hurt: Yuzvendra Chahal
Yuzvendra Chahal said on the podcast, “I talk to everyone with a smile. I talk to everyone respectfully. I keep joking and having fun with everyone. So, some people take it for granted. People are like, We can say anything to him; we can joke with him; he will not say anything.
It is not my nature to feel bad, but yeah, people have taken me for granted. I live my life the way I want to. But sometimes, certain things hit you hard and hurt.”
On being asked when you got hurt or someone crossed the line, Chahal responded with a cryptic smile and said, “So, I notice everything. I know… I didn't become a chess player by accident.”

Chahal also revealed that their last conversation happened around September 2024, during their divorce discussions with their lawyers. Since then, they haven’t spoken in over six to seven months. And the spinner feels it is best to move forward without keeping any emotional ties.
He said, “Ho gye honge 6-7 mahine, kuch kaam ka hoga to bus us baare m baat hoti thi wrna nahi. I think after the World Cup, 18-19 July, it ended properly. (It's been around 6–7 months. If there was something important, we only spoke about that; otherwise, no conversation. I think after the World Cup, around 18–19 July, it officially ended.”
