Indian leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal and popular radio jockey RJ Mahvash have sparked a social media frenzy after being spotted vacationing in London at the same time. Despite their consistent public statements claiming they are “just friends,” fans and followers are abuzz with speculation about a possible romance brewing between the two.
The buzz began when both Chahal and Mahvash posted photos from identical locations in London—iconic street views, cafes, and scenic backdrops—within a very short time frame. Observers on social media quickly picked up on similarities in their posts, even suggesting that some photos might have been taken by one another. While neither of them directly confirmed being together, the coordinated travel shots sent rumour mills into overdrive.
Fuel was added to the fire after a recent episode of The Great Indian Kapil Show, where Chahal made an appearance. When teased by host Kapil Sharma about his love life, Chahal jokingly responded, “India jaan chuka hai” (India already knows), a line that many fans took as a playful confirmation. A few even recalled earlier sightings of Mahvash cheering for Chahal during the IPL and at a Champions Trophy match, further strengthening their suspicions.
However, RJ Mahvash was quick to address the rumours. In a statement shared across her social platforms, she criticized the rush to label any male-female friendship as romantic. “Why does being seen together mean you’re dating?” she questioned, adding that assumptions like these are harmful and often disrespectful. While expressing her respect and admiration for Chahal, whom she called “humble and caring,” she maintained that they share nothing more than friendship.
Despite the denial, fans have continued to decode their interactions—be it their online banter, coordinated travel posts, or mutual public appearances. Mahvash’s previous statements praising Chahal’s dedication and work ethic have only added to the intrigue.
Sources close to both suggest that while they share a strong bond and mutual admiration, there’s no confirmation of a relationship beyond friendship at this time. Mahvash has also taken the opportunity to highlight the toll such speculation can take on public personalities, especially when based purely on social media activity.
The media and fans remain divided—some respecting their version of the story, others convinced that a relationship is blossoming behind the scenes. Whether friendship or more, the chemistry between the two is undeniable, and they continue to stay in the spotlight for reasons both on and off the field.
As speculation simmers, one thing is certain: Chahal and Mahvash have captured the public’s attention, whether through cricket, charisma, or the charm of a London holiday.
