New details have emerged about the postponement of music composer Palash Muchhal and cricketer Smriti Mandhana’s wedding, revealing that health concerns within both families resulted in the sudden pause. The ceremony, which had been planned with several pre-wedding celebrations already underway, has now been postponed indefinitely.
According to reports, Smriti Mandhana’s father experienced chest pain and was admitted to a hospital for immediate treatment. The development created an atmosphere of concern within the family, prompting discussions about the feasibility of continuing with the planned wedding events. Around the same time, Palash Muchhal was reportedly suffering from viral infection and acidity-related health issues, adding further stress to the situation.
Given these overlapping health challenges, both families mutually decided that it would be best to halt the celebrations and focus on recovery. Palak Muchhal, sister of Palash, released a statement requesting privacy and urging fans and media to respect the emotional sensitivity of the moment. She emphasised that the well-being of their families takes precedence over everything else.
The decision to postpone the wedding came as a surprise to fans, especially since glimpses of the couple’s pre-wedding rituals had already been circulating online. Mehendi photographs, family moments and behind-the-scenes clips had attracted significant attention on social media. However, many of these posts were removed shortly after the health emergency, reflecting the families’ desire to control the narrative and maintain privacy.
Support and prayers have poured in from fans, cricketers and members of the entertainment industry. Many social media users praised the families for prioritising health over ceremony, noting that celebrations can always be reorganised, but well-being must remain the top priority.
While no new date has been announced, both families have indicated that further decisions will be made only after the health of all involved stabilises. The focus at present remains entirely on ensuring recovery and providing emotional support during this challenging period.
