Dancer and reality show contestant Dhanashree Verma has spoken up against trolls amid ongoing rumours about her separation from her husband, cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal.

Dhanashree Verma Calls Out Online Harassment
In her note, Dhanashree expressed the challenges her family has since the divorce speculations. She criticized the "baseless writing" and "character assassination" she has been subjected to by anonymous trolls. "The past few days have been incredibly tough for my family and me. What's truly upsetting is the baseless writing, devoid of fact-checking, and the character assassination of my reputation by faceless trolls spreading hate," she wrote.
Dhanashree emphasised the hard work she has put into building her reputation. She explained that her decision to remain silent should not be seen as a sign of weakness. Instead, she views it as a demonstration of strength and resilience. "I've worked hard for years to build my name and integrity. My silence is not a sign of weakness but of strength. While negativity spreads easily online, it takes courage and compassion to uplift others," she added.
She signed off with "Om Namah Shivaay" and a folded hands emoji. "I choose to focus on my truth and move forward, holding onto my values. The truth stands tall without the need for justification," she concluded.

Even in her recent statement, Dhanashree did not directly address the rumours of separation or divorce.
