RJ Mahvash hits back at trolls claiming Yuzvendra Chahal ‘made her career'; shares pictures with Salman Khan, Aamir Khan: ‘Awards ki line mehnat se lagti hai, gold-digging se nahi'
Radio jockey and digital creator RJ Mahvash has come out strongly against trolls alleging that cricketer
Yuzvendra Chahal
is responsible for her rise to fame. In a video shared on her Instagram on Friday,
Mahvash
debunked claims that her career only took off because of her association with Chahal.
The post was captioned, 'Jab tak khud ke liye nahi bologe, koi tumhare liye nahi bolega' (If you don't speak for yourself, no one will).
Responding to a comment that read, 'Yuzi bhai ne iska career bana diya' (Yuzi made her career), Mahvash said in the video, '2019 se industry mein hu, aao isse pehle ka apna career dikhati hu' (I've been in this industry since 2019, let me show you my career before this). She then showcased her journey, from working with a production house in 2023 to her film debut Section 108 opposite Nawazuddin Siddiqui.
'I was hosting cricket shows before you were born'
Another recurring criticism she tackled was whether she knew anything about cricket. Highlighting a snide comment, 'Cricket pitch tak pohach gayi, cricket ke baare mein kuch janti bhi hai?' Mahvash retorted, 'Jab tu paida bhi nahi hua tha na chotu, tab se cricket shows host kar rahi hu.' (I've been hosting cricket shows since before you were born).
She backed her statement with visuals of her interactions with cricket legends including MS Dhoni, Chris Gayle, Harbhajan Singh, Shane Watson, and Mohammad Kaif, while stating, 'WhatsApp University ke forwarded messages mat paadha karo.'
Mahvash dismisses Chahal-centric narrative
Refuting another accusation that she gained access to big celebrities due to Chahal, Mahvash shared throwback photos with stars like
Salman Khan
,
Aamir Khan
, Rashmika Mandanna, Vicky Kaushal, and Kartik Aaryan. 'This has been my life before,' the video's text read.
She further detailed her achievements, including writing two books, starring as a lead in Amazon Prime's Pyaar Paisa Profit, and winning multiple awards.
In a pointed statement, she said, 'Apne wardrobe me itne awards ki line mehnat se lagti hai bro, gold-digging se nahi.' (You win awards through hard work, not gold digging.)
'Yuzi is a friend and I'll proudly say he's talented'
Mahvash also addressed her equation with Chahal, stressing that their friendship is genuine. 'As far as Yuzi is concerned, I am super-proud of him. Main poori duniya mein chilla chilla ke bolungi ki main jise janti hu vo super talented hai,' she said.
Their association made headlines after they were spotted together post Chahal's split with wife Dhanashree Verma. Despite speculation about a romantic angle, fueled by their public appearances and social media banter, Mahvash has repeatedly clarified that they're just friends.
'I'm very much single'
In a recent interview with Yuvaa, Mahvash once again put the rumours to rest. 'I'm very much single,' she said, adding that she doesn't believe in casual dating. 'I don't understand the concept of marriage in today's time,' she remarked, indicating that she would only date someone if she saw a future with them.

Watch: World's Largest Cheese Fondue Makes It To The Guinness Book Of World Records
Cheese fondue — a decadent Swiss classic — is meant to tantalise the taste buds of cheese lovers. Prepared with white wine, garlic, a splash of kirsch (colourless brandy) and Gruyere (a type of Alpine cheese), the dish sends our senses on a luscious, creamy journey. Served traditionally in a warm pot, when you dip the bread in the rich and gooey melted cheese, you will forget about those calories just like that. But what if you were given the world's largest cheese fondue ever made? Would you be able to finish off the entire thing? We are not kidding. The world's largest cheese fondue has earned a spot in the Guinness World Records (GWR). As per the official GWR website, it measures 2m³ (70.63 cubic feet). The extraordinary feat was achieved by premium cheese brand JuraFlore at the historical Le Fort des Rousses in Les Rousses, France, on February 22. GWR posted a video of the enormous cheese fondue-making process on Instagram. The clip shows the chef and his assistants adding giant chunks of Gruyere into a slicer. Shredded cheese comes out of the machine, which is then added to a large cauldron. Enough water and milk are poured into it, creating a thick and luscious base. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Guinness World Records (@guinnessworldrecords) The internet was quick to react. 'I can finish it in 3 bites max,' admitted a cheese enthusiast. 'That's a lot of cheese! I like it,' wrote another. 'How to break the 10-minute push-up record, ready to do it,' read a sarcastic remark. One person called the dish 'heaven'. The culinary event drew in more than 5000 attendees, surpassing the town's population, claimed the GWR website. Surprisingly, by the end of the evening, everyone finished off the cheese fondue. Reportedly, every person consumed an average of 400 g. The record also paved the way for JuraFlore to introduce their new three-Comté fondue product. It also highlights the region's cheese-making tradition. What are your thoughts on this?
