The chatter around cricketer Smriti Mandhana and music composer Palash Muchhal has once again taken over social media. Fresh reports claimed on Tuesday that the couple had locked 7 December as their new wedding date.
The rumour spread fast, and fans were back to asking the same questions within minutes. Is this wedding happening or not?

“Mujhe apni shadi se zyada smriti ki tension ho rah.”
“Definitely that muchal family’s pr must have spread this news. Even yesterday they had planted paps. I just hope Smriti doesn’t marry that guy. She is very talented and a nice person, deserves wayyy better than him.”

Palash Muchhal And Smriti Mandhana Wedding – Why Was It Cancelled?
The couple was earlier set to marry on 23 November in Sangli, but everything changed within hours. Smriti’s father, Shrinivas Mandhana, faced a serious medical emergency on the morning of the ceremony. He was rushed to hospital, and the families immediately stopped all festivities.
Meanwhile, Palash Muchhal was also admitted to a hospital due to extreme stress from the unfolding events. His mother later shared that he was placed on IV support and underwent several tests before being discharged. The double medical scare created confusion and left friends and fans stunned.
The lack of an official update from either family opened the gates to widespread speculation. Alleged screenshots and cheating rumours started circulating across platforms. Some users believed relationship issues may have played a part in the postponement.
Smriti’s online activity added more drama. She removed all her engagement posts, deleted her proposal video, and untagged Palaash from several photos. Fans noticed this quickly and assumed something bigger was happening behind the scenes.
The rumour mill dragged choreographers (Nandika Dwivedi and Gulnaaz Khan) into the chaos. Both artists denied the cheating allegations and called the claims “false” and “harmful.” They urged people to stop spreading stories that could ruin reputations.
Families Try To Calm The Situation
As the noise continued, Palash’s mother (Amita Muchhal) issued a clarification. She said the postponement had nothing to do with relationship troubles. She explained that the decision was out of respect for Smriti’s father’s condition and added that Palaash had suggested postponing the wedding even before the Mandhana family made the announcement.
Despite all the talk online, neither Smriti nor Palaash has directly addressed the cheating chatter. The only sign from their side has been the addition of an evil-eye emoji to their Instagram bios (something many fans saw as a subtle response to the negativity).
