The postponement of Smriti Mandhana and Palash Muchhal’s wedding has already left fans puzzled, and now a resurfaced photograph from Palash’s past relationship has added a fresh twist to the chatter online.
The couple was supposed to get married on November 23, but plans were put on hold after Smriti’s father, Shrinivas Mandhana, complained of chest discomfort and was rushed to the hospital. The family decided to postpone the ceremony, choosing to focus entirely on his health.
The development prompted a wave of concern and well-wishes from fans across the country. But alongside that, social media has begun buzzing with another story.
Old Photo Sparks New Questions
An old picture of Palash Muchhal—apparently from a romantic proposal setup—started circulating shortly after the wedding was delayed. The image shows an elaborate arrangement that many users claim was linked to Palash’s former girlfriend, Birva Shah, a plastic surgeon.
The timing of the photograph going viral has sent social media into a frenzy, with many questioning whether Palash was engaged before meeting Smriti. Some users even floated unverified claims that Palash may have cheated, though there is no confirmation or credible evidence supporting these allegations.
In fact, The Tribune has clarified that it cannot verify the authenticity of the images, but that hasn’t stopped the speculation from spreading.
Engagement Video Suddenly Disappears
Adding another layer to the gossip, fans noticed that Smriti’s engagement announcement video has quietly disappeared from her Instagram profile. The clip, which featured teammates Jemimah Rodrigues, Shreyanka Patil, Radha Yadav, and Arundhati Reddy, had gained huge traction when it was first posted.
Now, not only Smriti, but her teammates have also removed the video from their accounts.
The sudden disappearance has only intensified the online guessing game, even though neither Smriti nor Palash has made any public comment addressing it.
Families Deal With Emotional Turmoil
Amid the noise, Palash’s family has said the singer is deeply shaken—not because of the rumours, but because of Smriti’s father’s health scare.
Palash’s mother shared that he was very close to Smriti’s father and became emotional after hearing about his condition. “He cried so much that his own health suddenly deteriorated,” she said.
Both families are said to be distressed by the unexpected turn of events, with the focus right now entirely on recovery and stability.
Fans Urge Calm, Ask for Privacy
While the rumour mill continues to spin, many fans have stepped forward to ask people to show restraint and sensitivity.
For now, the wedding remains postponed, and no new date has been announced. What happens next will likely depend on Smriti’s father’s health and how the families choose to move forward.
One thing is clear — the couple is dealing with far more than just online gossip.
