Chahal in Controversy Again… What Really Happened?

Yuzvendra Chahal, who is currently playing for Punjab Kings in IPL 2026, has once again found himself in controversy. After facing criticism over a recent video showing him allegedly smoking and throwing a cigarette on the road, he is now in the spotlight due to fresh allegations regarding his personal life. Model and actress Taniya Chatterjee claimed that Chahal sent her a personal message saying “Aap cute ho” on Instagram, and shared screenshots during a media interaction, which quickly went viral.

The controversy has sparked widespread discussion on social media, especially as Chahal’s personal life has often been in the news. He previously divorced choreographer Dhanashree Verma and was later linked with RJ Mahvash, though recent unfollowing incidents also fueled rumors. On the professional front, Chahal has taken 3 wickets in 4 matches in IPL 2026. In a recent podcast, he also said he has quit alcohol and is focusing on fitness to give his best for the team and set an example as a senior player.
