Women cricket team's vice-captain Smriti Mandhana and filmmaker Palaash Muchhal were set to marry on November 23 in Sangli, Maharashtra. However, the celebrations were unexpectedly postponed after both
families cited health-related reasons. Soon after the announcement, fans noticed that Smriti had removed all wedding-related content from her Instagram, including engagement and proposal photos. The sudden silence from the couple, along with the deletion of posts, triggered a flurry of speculation across Reddit, Instagram, and X (formerly Twitter). As the online chatter grew, an anonymous Reddit post surfaced, claiming that two choreographers from the Bosco group, Nandika Dwivedi and Gulnaaz, who were hired to choreograph the wedding dances, were somehow involved in the situation. Although these claims were entirely unverified, they quickly spread across social media, sparking outrage and causing both names to trend.

Addressing the rumours directly, she wrote, “I’ve noticed a lot of false claims and speculation going around about me and my friend Nandika, so I want to make it clear that we are not involved in this situation. Just because we know someone socially or have a photo with them doesn’t mean we’re connected to their personal matters. Let’s keep things respectful and not jump to conclusions. We appreciate your understanding and support."Take a look at her post here:
