Spinner Yuzvendra Chahal on Tuesday tied the knot with choreographer Dhanashree Verma. Continuing the #DhanaSaidYuz series, Chahal on Thursday shared pictures of his engagement ceremony and haldi.

Another video going viral from Chahal's engagement ceremony is of the cake cutting. The two-tier cake covered in powder-pink frosting and topped with couples' initials in gold is breaking the Internet. Chahal shared the photo from his wedding on Twitter, captioning the post as: "22.12.20. We started at "Once Upon A Time" and found "Our Happily Ever After," coz' finally, #DhanaSaidYuz for infinity and beyond."

Cricketers like Brian Lara, Chris Gayle and Indian team opener Shikhar Dhawan congratulated Chahal.
