“It’s Not About Time, It’s About Priority”: Yuzvendra Chahal’s Post Sparks Social Media Exchange with RJ Mahavash

New Delhi: Indian leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal has been making headlines off the cricket field following his divorce from choreographer Dhanshree Verma. Recently, Chahal had been spotted spending time with radio jockey RJ Mahavash, but reports emerged last week that both had unfollowed each other on social media, sparking speculation about a possible fallout. Chahal was also recently seen with Bigg Boss fame Shefali Bagga, adding to the buzz around his personal life.

Chahal’s Instagram Post

Chahal shared a quote from the Bhagavad Gita on his Instagram story:
“It’s never about time, it’s always about priority. If something is a priority for you, you will make time for it.”

The post was widely interpreted as a subtle dig at RJ Mahavash, hinting at a strained relationship between the two.

RJ Mahavash Responds

Shortly after Chahal’s post, Mahavash uploaded a cryptic video on her Instagram. Sitting in her car and adjusting her hair, she captioned the clip:
“90% of the time, you see me fixing my hair. The rest of the time, I’m fixing my own life.”

She further shared a photo on her Instagram story with the message:
“Sending you some peace,” accompanied by emojis.

In a follow-up video, Mahavash appeared to address Chahal without naming him, stating:
“There’s no point in saying ‘it happened by mistake, forgive me.’ Go your own way. I no longer have the courage to fix someone else’s life.”

Background: Chahal and Mahavash’s Public Bond

Chahal married Dhanshree Verma in 2020, and the couple divorced in 2025, reportedly one of the costliest divorces among Indian cricketers. Following the split, Chahal was seen attending an Indian cricket match in Dubai with RJ Mahavash, which fueled speculation about their friendship. The sudden social media unfollowing and Chahal’s subsequent sightings with Shefali Bagga have only intensified public curiosity about the dynamics between Chahal and Mahavash.

This latest social media exchange highlights the personal challenges and public scrutiny that cricketers like Chahal face off the field, showing that their lives remain a point of keen interest for fans and media alike.
