Filmmaker composer Palaash Muchhal and Indian women’s cricket team vice captain Smriti Mandhana were all set to get married on Sunday, November 23, in Sangli, Maharashtra. Everything was ready for the big day, but just as the celebrations were about to begin, the wedding had to be paused due to health emergencies in both families.
Smriti Mandhana’s father, Shriniwas Mandhana, was rushed to Sarvhit Hospital after showing symptoms of a heart attack. A day later, Palaash was also admitted to a hospital in Sangli after reportedly facing a sudden health issue.
Instagram Activity Raises Eyebrows
Soon after the wedding was put on hold, something else sparked curiosity online. Smriti Mandhana quietly deleted all her Instagram posts related to the wedding, including her engagement announcement and the proposal video. The timing of the deletion immediately set off speculation and conversations across social media.
Reddit Screenshots Add to the Buzz
The situation took another turn when an Instagram user named Mary D’Costa shared screenshots on Reddit, claiming they were her chats with Palaash. The account that posted them, along with its display picture, has now been deactivated, but the screenshots are still circulating widely on different platforms.
Fans React Online
Meanwhile, fans on social media went into a frenzy as the news of Smriti Mandhana getting cheated on spread online. Many expressed shock and disappointment, while others urged people not to jump to conclusions without verified information. Some even called for patience until the couple released an official statement, hoping the situation was simply a misunderstanding.

Meet Mary Decosta,
She claimed that Palash Muchhal was flirting with her while being in a relationship with Smriti Mandhana,
She has also cleared that she never met Palash.
It could be possible that Palash is texting multiple girls which resulted in marriage cancelation ? 🤔 pic.twitter.com/TxhMBXe3bG

What We Know So Far
Smriti Mandhana had already removed her proposal video and engagement announcement from her social media yesterday. Both videos had gone viral when they were originally posted. On the other hand, Palaash still has all his posts with Smriti up on his account.
The only official statement so far has come from Palaash’s sister, Palak Muchhal, who wrote on Instagram: “Due to Smriti’s dad health Smriti and Palaash’s wedding has been put on hold. Would request all of you to respect the privacy of the families in this sensitive time.” Neither Smriti nor Palaash have commented publicly yet.
The Wedding Remains on Pause
Smriti Mandhana and Palaash were supposed to get married on November 23, and several members of the Indian women’s cricket team had already reached Sangli for the pre-wedding celebrations. But with both families dealing with sudden health issues and the internet buzzing with new rumors, the wedding has now been paused indefinitely.
