Kenaa Dwivedi, sister of India cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal, shared a heartfelt note on Bhai Dooj praising her brother’s respectful nature and composure, shortly after his ex-wife Dhanashree Verma discussed their marriage and separation on the show ‘Rise and Fall’. The timing of Kenaa’s message follows Dhanashree’s recent television appearance where she revealed details about her relationship with the cricketer.In her message, Kenaa highlighted Chahal’s character and his approach to handling difficult situations through silence.
“You’re also the man who truly respects women, the one who addresses every woman as ‘ma’am,’ who protects the dignity of every soul around him, and who chooses silence when the world turns mean. Even when I get upset and ask, ‘Why don’t you say something?’ you always remind me that sometimes, time heals everything and silence speaks the loudest.”Kenaa also expressed gratitude for her brother’s continuous support and guidance.

“People who know your heart, your character, and your soul feel that protective energy, that warmth and strength that makes everyone around you feel safe. Thank you for every teaching, every laugh, and every lesson you’ve given me. I know I’ll make mistakes along the way, but I also know you’ll be there to bring me back on track, just like you always do.”The post came after Dhanashree Verma’s appearance on ‘Rise and Fall’, where she shared insights about her relationship with Chahal. During a conversation with actor Arjun Bijlani on the show, Dhanashree explained how their relationship began.“It was love and arranged both. It started off as an arranged marriage. Basically, he wanted to get married without dating, and I wasn’t even planning for anything like that.”Dhanashree detailed the progression of their relationship and the changes she observed.“I got convinced due to the amount of love that was poured into the whole process. We did our Roka (engagement) in August, and then we got married in December. During that time, I travelled with him, and we stayed together. I started seeing subtle changes in his behaviour. There is a difference between how people act when they want something compared to when they get it.”She also shared her perspective on trying to maintain the relationship.“Even though I saw him changing, I put my trust into him and the relationship. My problem is that I love giving too many chances to the people around me. But eventually, I got done with it. I tried to do everything I could from my side and give my hundred per cent. I’ll always be concerned for him; that much I can guarantee.”The couple’s relationship began during the Covid-19 lockdown when they met during online dance classes. They later got married but filed for mutual divorce in February, which was finalised in March.
