Smriti Mandhana shares first social media post after wedding postponement with Palash Muchhal

Indian cricketer and vice-captain of the women’s team, Smriti Mandhana, has returned to social media nearly two weeks after postponing her wedding to singer-composer Palash Muchhal on November 23, following her father’s sudden health emergency.

Mandhana took to Instagram to share a paid partnership video in which she spoke about her journey and career in cricket. The post marks her first public appearance since the wedding was postponed.

Soon after sharing the video, fans flooded the comment section with happiness at seeing the cricketer back online.

One fan wrote, “Stay blessed, Smriti.”

Another commented with excitement, saying, “Finally, my babygirl is back... hope you’re okay, didi!”

A third user added, “You’re back... hope you’re doing okay and that everyone at home is as well.”

Mandhana’s wedding celebrations were halted after her father, Srinivas Mandhana, fell ill on the day of the ceremony in Sangli. He reportedly experienced “symptoms of a heart attack” and was rushed to Sarvhit Hospital.

Mandhana’s brother Shravan Mandhana recently denied new claims that the wedding had been rescheduled for December 7, saying the ceremony remains “still postponed.”

Although both families have maintained that the postponement took place due to the medical situation alone, the couple’s silence has fuelled ongoing online chatter about their relationship status, leaving fans waiting for clarity.
