Rumours are swirling online about a possible affair between former cricketer Mithun Manhas and Aarti Ahlawat, who is the wife of Virender Sehwag. A few months ago, Sehwag and Aarti reportedly unfollowed each other on Instagram, and several sources have claimed that the couple has been living separately for some time. According to reports, a divorce might be on the way.

What has added more fuel to the gossip is that Mithun Manhas, Sehwag’s long-time friend and the newly appointed president of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is now being linked to Aarti. The news broke soon after Manhas officially took over the BCCI presidency, following Roger Binny’s resignation in August 2025.

The rumours gained more attention after journalist Abhishek Tripathi posted a cryptic message on social media on October 7, 2025. He referred to the 2009 controversy involving cricketers Murali Vijay and Dinesh Karthik, hinting that a similar situation might be happening again. His post quickly went viral, garnering hundreds of thousands of views in under a day.

Adding to the speculation, fans noticed that Sehwag and Aarti’s two sons, Aryavir and Vedant, follow Manhas on social media. An old picture of Manhas with Aarti from 2021 has also resurfaced online, intensifying the rumours. However, no one involved has confirmed anything publicly, and there is no solid proof of an affair.

If Sehwag and Aarti truly are separating, they would be joining the growing list of celebrity couples ending long-term marriages. Sehwag, known for his explosive batting style, and Aarti have been married since 2004. Their wedding was held at the home of former Finance Minister Arun Jaitley, and for years they were seen as one of cricket’s most stable couples.

Lately, though, signs of trouble have been noticeable. During last year’s Diwali celebrations, Sehwag posted photos with his sons and his mother, but none with Aarti. That small detail caught fans’ attention and sparked even more speculation about their relationship.
