He<\/span><span class=\"cf0\">\u00a0and <\/span><span class=\"cf0\">Aesha<\/span><span class=\"cf0\"> Mukerji were married for eight years before going their separate ways. <\/span><span class=\"cf0\">Two years ago, a Delhi court granted Dhawan a divorce on the grounds of mental cruelty by <\/span><span class=\"cf0\">Aesha<\/span><span class=\"cf0\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\"><span class=\"cf0\">Although <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/cricket\/watch-shikhar-dhawans-sweet-interaction-with-girlfriend-sophie-shine-on-sidelines-of-wcl-9458453.html\">Dhawan<\/a> was granted the divorce, he wasn\u2019t awarded permanent custody of <\/span><span class=\"cf0\">Zoravar<\/span><span class=\"cf0\">, who resides in Australia with <\/span><span class=\"cf0\">Aesha<\/span><span class=\"cf0\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\"><span class=\"cf0\">As per the judgment, Dhawan is permitted to meet <\/span><span class=\"cf0\">Zoravar<\/span><span class=\"cf0\"> in both India and Australia, and can stay in touch through scheduled video calls as well. <\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"8\" class=\"story_para_8\">\u201cWCL mein jab doston ko apne kids ke saath khelte dekha\u2026 bas ek thought aaya, wish Zora was here. It would\u2019ve been a different kind of joy. Later, I came across some of his childhood photos\u2026 and suddenly, all those memories came rushing back. Some moments really do stay closest to the heart. \u2764\ufe0f,&#8221; Dhawan posted on Instagram on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p id=\"12\" class=\"story_para_12\"><span class=\"cf0\">These words, simple yet heartfelt, echoed the deep longing and tenderness of a father missing his son.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"14\" class=\"story_para_14\"><span class=\"cf0\">Among the pictures shared, one stood out<\/span><span class=\"cf1\">, <\/span><span class=\"cf2\">a beautiful moment featuring Dhawan with Rohit Sharma, his daughter <\/span><span class=\"cf2\">Samaira<\/span> <span class=\"cf2\">and little <\/span><span class=\"cf2\">Zoravar<\/span><span class=\"cf2\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"17\" class=\"story_para_17\"><span class=\"cf0\">Though the World Championship of Legends has ended, Dhawan\u2019s post has lingered in the hearts of fans long after the final game. <\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"19\" class=\"story_para_19\">Meanwhile, India and Pakistan had been slated to meet in the group stage of the tournament, but the Indian team, featuring Dhawan, Yuvraj Singh, Irfan Pathan, Suresh Raina and Harbhajan Singh, refused to play, citing national sentiment after the terror attack and India\u2019s subsequent \u2018Operation Sindoor\u2019.<\/p>\n<p id=\"20\" class=\"story_para_20\">With India pulling out of the semifinal as well, Pakistan advanced to the final.<\/p>\n<p id=\"21\" class=\"story_para_21\">Criticising the tournament\u2019s handling of the situation, the Pakistan Cricket Board said, \u201cThe cancellation was not based on cricketing merit but on appeasing a specific nationalistic narrative.
