Indian cricket star Smriti Mandhana and music composer–producer Palash Muchhal were set to tie the knot on November 23. However, the wedding was postponed after Smriti’s father, Shrinivas Mandhana, suddenly fell ill. Soon after, Palash Muchhal also reportedly suffered health issues, adding to the concerns of fans across the country.
Following the postponement, Smriti Mandhana removed all wedding-related posts from her Instagram account. This triggered widespread speculation online about the couple’s relationship status.
In the midst of this, a new controversy has emerged. Screenshots shared on Reddit claim that Palash Muchhal had been exchanging messages with a woman named Mary D’Costa. In the alleged chats, Palash is said to have invited her to go swimming with him. The screenshots also show the woman questioning him:
“You love Smriti, right? Then why are you calling me?”
The chats have gone viral, sparking intense discussion on social media. However, multiple reports stress that the screenshots are unverified, and their authenticity has not been confirmed by any official source.
So far, neither Smriti Mandhana nor Palash Muchhal has issued a statement addressing the viral conversations or the rumours surrounding their relationship.
While fans await clarity, the wedding stands postponed until Smriti’s father fully recovers.
