On Wednesday night, minutes after Chahal completed his hat-trick in the 19th over of CSK's innings, Mahvash took to Instagram Stories and wrote: "God mode on kyaaa?" She then tagged Chahal and added, "Strength of a warrior sir (salute emoji)." Mahvash did not share a picture of Chahal.

Mahvash has been spotted with Chahal numerous times before and during the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL 2025). The two were spotted in Dubai earlier this year as they watched the Indian cricket team take on Pakistan in the Champions Trophy, sparking relationship rumours. After Chahal's divorce with dancer Dhanashree Verma was finalised in March, Mahvash was again seen with Chahal during games, and at one point, she reportedly travelled in the PBKS team bus with Chahal.

How Chahal and Mahvash were linked

A few days ago, after a smashing performance in a recent match between Kolkata Night Riders and Punjab Kings, Yuzvendra shared a story on Instagram where he can be seen smiling and holding a bouquet of red roses. The Instagram story soon went viral and its screenshot landed on Reddit. The users on the platform said that Yuzvendra had apparently tagged Mahvash in the story but later deleted it.

Despite the rumours, Chahal and Mahvash have not confirmed the speculations. Last December, Mahvash had denied these rumours. However, their recent appearances together and social media praise for each other have fuelled the rumours again.
