Rohit Sharma’s wife, Ritika Sajdeh, has drawn attention for liking a social media post that referred to Yuzvendra Chahal’s former wife, Dhanashree Verma, as a “gold digger.” The post was based on a viral video by YouTuber Shubhankar Mishra, who commented on the financial settlement between Chahal and Dhanashree following their divorce.
