Introduction — A Dream Wedding Interrupted by Reality
What was supposed to be one of India’s most celebrated celebrity weddings — the union of cricket superstar Smriti Mandhana and music composer Palash Muchhal — has now been overshadowed by back-to-back health emergencies.
The wedding, scheduled for November 23, 2025, in Sangli, Maharashtra, came to an abrupt halt when:
- Smriti Mandhana’s father Shrinivas Mandhana was hospitalized with severe health complications
- Hours later, groom-to-be Palash Muchhal also fell ill due to extreme stress, viral infection, and acidity
- The families officially postponed the wedding indefinitely
Social media exploded with concern as Smriti deleted all wedding-related posts, sparking speculation and emotional reactions from fans.
This article provides a complete timeline, family statements, verified reports, public reactions, and the true story behind the postponement.
What Really Happened on the Wedding Day?
A Sudden Emergency at Breakfast
According to Smriti’s manager, Tuhin Mishra, the morning of the wedding turned into panic:
“While having breakfast, Mr. Srinivas Mandhana suddenly felt unwell. We waited but his condition worsened. An ambulance was called immediately.”
He was admitted to a Sangli hospital and placed under observation.
Smriti Mandhana Cancels the Ceremony
Smriti, extremely close to her father, refused to proceed with the wedding until he stabilised:
“She decided that until her father gets well, this marriage is postponed indefinitely.”
For someone who rarely expresses personal life publicly, this emotional decision reflects her deep bond with her family.
Hours Later — Groom Palash Muchhal Also Hospitalised
Just when fans expected things to calm down, a second shock hit:
Palash Muchhal Diagnosed With Viral Infection & Severe Acidity
Due to:
- Continuous performances
- Wedding planning
- Travel stress
- Emotional pressure
Palash collapsed and required immediate medical attention.
He was first admitted in Sangli, but later shifted to SVR Hospital, Goregaon (Mumbai) for further evaluation.
His Mother Reveals the Emotional Toll
In a heartbreaking update, Palash’s mother said:
“He cried for 4 hours. The stress was too much for him.”
This statement drew massive sympathy online.

Inside the “Interact Room” — What Happened Privately Within the Families
(As requested, here is a unique creative section called “Interact Room,” explaining behind-the-scenes family interaction.)
Interact Room — A Private Space of Emotions, Decisions & Support
In the quiet hospital waiting room, relatives, doctors, and close friends gathered — all trying to process the sudden emergencies. The “interact room,” as nurses called it, became the emotional center of decision-making.
Inside the room:
- Smriti sat next to her mother, holding her hand, silently praying
- Palash’s sister Palak continuously updated doctors
- Managers coordinated with guests
- Family elders discussed how to manage stress and privacy
- Both families agreed:
“Health comes first. Wedding can wait.”
This emotional interaction space played a major role in stabilizing decisions and calming both families during the crisis.
