Summary
- Samay Raina's video with RJ Mahvash contains references to Yuzvendra Chahal's ex-wife Dhanashree
- Samay alludes to Dhanashree's claims about Chahal cheating on her just 2 months into their marriage
- Samay wears a t-shirt with the same slogan as Chahal's post-divorce
In October 2025, comedian Samay Raina shared a video alongside RJ Mahvash, which has drawn significant attention from viewers. Many believe the video contains indirect references to cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal's ex-wife, Dhanashree Verma.
Although Dhanashree was not explicitly named, fans have pointed out several instances in the video that appear to target her past with Chahal. In one segment, Samay spoke about his "rise and fall" within two months, which is seen as a nod to Dhanashree's claim on the reality show "Rise And Fall" that Chahal cheated on her just two months into their marriage.
The comedian also slipped in other references, including the alleged Rs 4.75 crore alimony, Dhanashree's podcast, and Samay sporting a T-shirt with the words, "Be Your Own Sugar Daddy" - the same one Chahal wore after his divorce.
The video's banter continues with Samay and Mahvash discussing various aspects of their lives, with Samay subtly alluding to Chahal through his responses. At one point, Samay asks, "What's half of 8 crore?" to which Mahvash answers, "4 crore," a reference to the reported alimony amount.
Chahal himself has joined in on the joke, laughing along with Samay's video call and commenting, "Be ready for one more case," suggesting he is amused by the comedian's cheeky references to his personal life.
