The wedding of Indian cricketer Smriti Mandhana and singer Palash Muchhal, initially scheduled for November 23, was postponed. The delay was officially attributed to the sudden illness of Mandhana’s father, Srinivas Mandhana.
Srinivas Mandhana has since been discharged from the hospital and is reportedly in good health. Despite his recovery, the families have not yet announced a new date for the wedding.
In the wake of the postponement, social media was rife with speculation. A rumor widely circulated suggested that Mandhana had unfollowed Muchhal on Instagram and deleted all their wedding-related photos.
This claim has been debunked; Mandhana continues to follow Muchhal on the social media platform.
Further adding to the online chatter, old photos of Palash Muchhal from 2017 have resurfaced. These images reportedly show him proposing on one knee to an ex-girlfriend, leading to speculation about his past relationships. The authenticity of these photos remains unconfirmed.
