Smriti Mandhana and Palash Muchhal Call Off Wedding Plans
New Delhi: The marriage of Indian cricket star Smriti Mandhana and musician Palash Muchhal was to take place on 23 November 2025, but sudden circumstances, rumors, and ongoing discussions on social media turned this relationship into a very sensitive controversy.
After the postponement of marriage, private chats going viral, and continuous rumors spreading, now Palash Muchhal has given his open reaction, in which he announced his withdrawal from their relationship.

After this incident, both families wanted private time, but social media made the situation more complicated.
Within hours of the wedding being postponed, it was viral on social media— Alleged “leaked chats,” old video, and rumors like affairs started spreading, in which Palash Muchhal was targeted.
Because of these viral posts, people started wrongly linking the reason for the breakdown of marriage. Some reports also revealed that much of the viral content was AI-generated or misleading.
As the controversy continued to escalate, Smriti Mandhana issued an official statement and clearly said that the marriage will not happen now and she wants to end the matter here. She has also appealed to the public and media for privacy.
Now comes Palash Muchhal's statement—"I am moving forward." After rumors and social media trolling increased, Palash Muchhal finally issued a statement on Instagram, which read: “I have decided to move on in my life and step back from my personal relationship… It has been very difficult to see people react so easily to baseless rumors… My team will take strict legal action against anyone spreading false or defamatory content.”
