Dhanashree Verma Faces Online Trolling
Dhanashree has been subjected to intense online trolling ever since rumors of their separation emerged. Many users criticized her over alleged reports that she received ₹60 crore in alimony. However, it has now been clarified that Chahal actually paid ₹4.35 crore as part of their settlement.
The couple’s divorce was fast-tracked through a mutual consent petition, bypassing the usual six-month cooling-off period required under the Hindu Marriage Act.
Court’s Decision on Expedited Divorce
Justice Madhav Jamdar directed the Bandra family court to finalize the divorce before March 20 since Chahal would be unavailable after March 21 due to his participation in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024.
The couple had filed a joint petition to waive the cooling-off period, citing their long separation of over two and a half years.
Initially, the family court had refused to waive the period, stating that there was only partial compliance with the alimony payment. The court required Chahal to pay ₹4.75 crore, but at the time, he had transferred ₹2.37 crore.
However, the Bombay High Court acknowledged full compliance following a settlement, leading to the final approval of their divorce.
With the IPL 2024 set to begin on March 22, Yuzvendra Chahal is now gearing up to play for Punjab Kings in the upcoming season.
