Just who is Dhanashree Verma?

Leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal announced his engagement in the midst of the pandemic to Dhanashree Verma.

The Royal Challengers Bangalore spinner posted a photograph of Dhanashree and him, and captioned the post 'We said 'Yes' along with our families #rokaceremony.'

Dhanashree arrived in Dubai this month and has made a sudden impact at RCB games and with her dance, dance, videos on Instagram.

Who is this doctor-dancer-YouTuber as the lady describes herself on her Insta bio?

Dhanashree is a dentist and graduated from the D Y L Patil Dental College, Navi Mumbai in 2016, which is located on the same campus as the D Y L Patil stadium where games in earlier IPL seasons were played.

 

'Do all you can to make your dreams come true?', she captions her graduation post with her mommy.

 

Her dad is based in Dubai and she has spent a lot of time there.

 

 

She owns a dance company -- the Dhanashree Verma Company -- and dances to Bollywood tracks and hip hop.

Clearly, she is a natural in front of the camera.

She definitely knows how to rock a sari.

Do you think she can rock the bridal outfit?

 

Throwback to when Dhanashree visited St Ives in Cornwal in the UK. An adventure junkie, she terms kayaking as 'one of the best decisions'.

'If you have a chance then go for it. Because at the end of the day your feet should be dirty, your hair should be messy and your eyes sparkling.'

'Perfect Meal with my perfect buddies,' she says in this post.
