Mumbai, March 10 (NationPress) Social media sensation Rj Mahvash, who caught the attention of netizens with her appearance alongside cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal during the Champions Trophy Final, is in high spirits celebrating India's title victory.
She shared a video on her social media, capturing the moment of joy following India's win, with fireworks lighting up the background.

They were also featured in an Instagram video by actor Vivek Oberoi, where he quizzed Chahal about the match outcome, to which the cricketer expressed his support for India.
Interestingly, Chahal follows the social media influencer on Instagram and had been interviewed by her in 2022.
Meanwhile, India faced New Zealand in a thrilling Champions Trophy final at the Dubai International Stadium on Sunday.
Despite losing their 15th toss consecutively, New Zealand chose to bat first. India managed to secure early breakthroughs, finding gaps in their opponent’s defense before launching a powerful batting assault.
New Zealand barely reached 250 runs, ending their innings with a total of 251 runs for the loss of 7 wickets.
During the chase, the Indian team, led by Rohit Sharma, built a strong momentum. The captain played a key role, scoring 76 runs off 83 balls.
Ultimately, India clinched the match with a comfortable 4-wicket victory, marking their third Champions Trophy title. This achievement makes them the first team to win 3 Champions Trophy titles, surpassing Australia, which has won twice.
India won its first Champions Trophy in 2002, declared a joint winner with Sri Lanka. The second win was in 2013 against England at Edgbaston Cricket Ground, a memorable moment being Virat Kohli performing the 'Gangnam Style' dance in a white blazer during the post-match ceremony.
India holds the record for the most appearances in Champions Trophy Finals, with 5 entries, followed by New Zealand with 3.
This victory serves as a significant morale boost for both the team and fans after a disappointing Test series loss in Australia last December.
