India legspinner Yuzvendra Chahal's divorce with the actor-dancer Dhanashree Verma has been finally confirmed. The decision was confirmed by the Bombay High Court and the details were revealed by Chahal's advocate.

Yuzvendra Chahal and Dhanashree Verma were on the verge of separation for the past few days and there were rumors about them being divorced soon after both of them removed each other's pictures from their respective social media accounts.

They had already filed for divorce by mutual consent on February 5, 2024. The family court had earlier declined to remove the cooling-off period, citing the agreed settlement as the reason. However, the court has agreed to finalize the divorce as Chahal would be busy due to his commitments in the IPL from March 21.

The court was directed by Justice Madhav Jamdar to finnalise the decision by Marchh 20 as Chahal won't be available due to his IPL commitments, where he is due to represent Punjab Kings this year.
