“Nunca he engañado; tuve pensamientos suicidas”: Yuzvendra Chahal habla sobre el divorcio con ex esposa Dhanashree

“Power couple” is an adjective that we often use for celebrity couples that lay down goals for life partners. Yuzvendra Chahal and Dhanashree Verma were in that “power couple” category until a news shocked the entire world when the pair decided to part ways mutually.

For the first time since their separation, Chahal has laid bare the emotional turmoil he went through. The leg-spinner admitted that false allegations in the wake of his divorce nearly broke him. “I had suicidal thoughts, I was tired of my life, I used to cry for 2 hours. I used to sleep just for 2 hours. It went for 40-45 days. I wanted a break from cricket,” Chahal shared in an interview on Figuring Out with Raj Shamani.

He confessed that the constant scrutiny made it impossible for him to focus on cricket. “I was so busy in cricket. I was not able to concentrate. Used to share suicidal thoughts with my friend. I used to get scared,” he added.
