What Happened Between Palaash Muchhal & Smriti Mandhana?

To recap, Palaash Muchhal and Smriti Mandhana were scheduled to marry on November 23, 2025, after several years of dating. Palaash had famously proposed during a cricket match, and the couple had completed pre-wedding ceremonies like sangeet and haldi. However, just a day before the wedding, rumors surfaced alleging Palaash’s infidelity involving a choreographer. Though these claims were never officially confirmed, the families announced a postponement and later confirmed the wedding was canceled.

For Smriti Mandhana, 2025 was a year of professional triumphs and personal upheaval. She celebrated a historic Women’s World Cup win, but her wedding controversy dominated headlines. She did not mention Palaash in her 2025 recap video shared on social media. Looking forward, Smriti expressed optimism for 2026, describing it as “a game,” and emphasized the importance of staying consistent and motivated.
