RJ Mahvash, a former radio jockey and actor, recently clarified dating rumors surrounding her and Punjab Kings cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal. During an interview with Pinkvilla, she explained that they are merely good friends and that she provided support to him during his challenging time following his separation from ex-wife Dhanashree Verma. Mahvash dismissed the rumors of a fallout, stating that minor arguments are common among friends and should not be blown out of proportion. She expressed her continued support for Chahal, wishing him well. Meanwhile, in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 playoffs, Chahal's team, the Punjab Kings, faced a significant defeat against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru, losing by 23 runs. RCB's batting was led by Virat Kohli and Venkatesh Iyer, who scored 58 and 73 not out respectively, while Bhuvneshwar Kumar's impactful bowling helped dismantle the Punjab batting lineup early on. Despite efforts from late-order batsmen Shashank Singh and Marcus Stoinis, the Punjab Kings could not chase down RCB's total of 222 runs.
