Cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal has been making headlines for his personal life for quite a few months now. The cricketer is embroiled in a divorce with actress Dhanashree Verma. He recently appeared to take a dig at his ex-wife while referencing a Delhi High Court ruling on alimony.
Chahal took to his Instagram Stories to share a screenshot of a court verdict that read, “Financially independent wives cannot demand alimony from their husbands.” Alongside it, he wrote, “Maa Kasam Khao Nahi Paltoge iss Decision Seh,” which translates to, “Swear on your mother you won’t go back on this decision.”
