The anticipation is building up as the ICC Cricket World Cup is just around the corner, and cricket enthusiasts across the globe are gearing up for this mega sporting event. Recently, the official broadcasters, Sport Sports Network, added an extra layer of excitement by releasing the official anthem for the tournament. In a musical extravaganza that lasted 3 minutes and 22 seconds, the anthem titled ‘Dil Jashn Bole’ was unveiled.
This catchy anthem, composed by the renowned music director Pritam, features the charismatic Bollywood star Ranveer Singh. The anthem has been met with an overwhelmingly positive response from fans, capturing the essence of cricket’s passion in India. However, what truly set social media abuzz was the unexpected appearance of Dhanashree Verma, wife of leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal, alongside Ranveer Singh in the video.
The ICC World Cup anthem, ‘Dil Jashn Bole,’ undoubtedly boasts a star-studded cast. Ranveer Singh, known for his high-energy performances, takes the lead and infuses his signature enthusiasm into the anthem. But what surprised fans was the cameo appearances of some well-known social media influencers. Gaurav Taneja, popularly known as ‘Flying Beast,’ and comedian Nikunj Lotia, famous as ‘Be YouNick,’ appeared in the video, adding an element of relatability to the anthem. Their presence in the video resonated with a younger audience, further cementing the anthem’s status as a hit.
Amidst all the excitement, the appearance of Dhanashree Verma was the ultimate surprise for cricket fans. Dhanashree, the wife of Yuzvendra Chahal, has garnered a significant social media following primarily through her dance and entertainment content. Her sudden appearance alongside Ranveer Singh in the ICC World Cup anthem video left fans stunned and curious.
Yuzvendra Chahal failed to secure a spot in India’s squad for the ICC World Cup 2023. The selectors opted for a spin-bowling all-rounder who could contribute with both the ball and the bat lower down the order. Consequently, the selectors chose Axar Patel alongside Kuldeep Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja.

The absence of the wrist spinner in the squad has already sparked extensive discussions among cricket enthusiasts and experts. Many have questioned the decision to exclude Chahal, given his experience and success in the limited-overs format. While team selections are always debatable in cricket, the revelation of Dhanashree Verma’s appearance in the World Cup theme video added an unexpected twist to the ongoing discussion.
As soon as Dhanashree Verma’s cameo in the anthem video was noticed, cricket fans and social media users erupted excitedly. Memes, screenshots, and discussions flooded various platforms, turning Dhanashree into an overnight sensation.
