New social media posts claim that Smriti Mandhana and Palaash Muchhal will get married on December 7. The original ceremony in Sangli was canceled on the morning of November 23 when Smriti’s father suffered a sudden medical emergency.
He was rushed to the hospital. Palaash was also later admitted after he became unwell due to extreme stress. According to his mother, he needed IV support and several tests.
Online speculation exploded after the postponement. Alleged screenshots of the chat, which include Palash and another woman, have sparked cheating theories. Many fans noticed that Smriti deleted her engagement posts. It fueled more gossip.
News of the December 7 wedding left many fans disappointed. Some wonder if the cheating controversy was a PR ploy.
“Meine itne dramebaaz log nahi dekhe pehle kabhi.. (I have never seen such conceited people). Palash Muchhal has confirmed that he and Smriti Mandhana will tie the knot on December 7 in an intimate day-long ceremony in Sangli. The pre-wedding celebrations have already begun,” says one reaction.
“I don’t know why Smriti or someone from her family is not clarifying this! Every day there are new rumours!” another user commented.
Meanwhile, Smriti Mandhana’s brother Shravan denied all such rumours. He says he doesn’t know anything about the new date.
“I have no idea about these rumours. As of now (the wedding) is still postponed,” he told HT.
What does Palash’s mother say
Palash’s mother, Amita Muchhal, told HT that the families will resume wedding celebrations once both of them recover from the emotional stress and recent health scare. He says he believes the couple will go ahead with the wedding soon.
According to her, both Smriti and Palash are in pain after sudden medical emergencies.
“Palash dreamed of returning home with his bride. I even planned a special welcome. Everything will be fine; shaadi bohot jaldi hogi (wedding will be soon),” she added.
She had earlier revealed that it was Palash’s idea to call off the wedding after Smriti’s mother fell ill.
“Palash is very emotionally attached to his ‘uncle’. In fact, they are closer than Palash and Smriti. So, when he fell ill, Palash decided, even before Smriti, that the wedding should not take place until he fully recovered,” she said.
“Even before Smriti made up her mind, Palash had said that he would not want to get married until his ‘uncle’ recovered,” she said.
Soon Smriti’s father returned home. After medical checks, doctors found no abnormalities in his health. However, the wedding remains cancelled.
