Smriti, Palaash unfollow each other on social media after calling off wedding

Palaash Muchhal and Smriti Mandhana have separately confirmed the end of their relationship and called off their wedding. Smriti had unfollowed Palaash on Instagram after announcing the wedding cancellation. Now the singer has also unfollowed the cricketer on the social networking platform.

On Sunday, both Palaash and Smriti shared separate statements on their Instagram Stories to confirm that their wedding is called off. While during the announcement, Palaash continued to follow the Indian cricketer on Instagram, but later unfollowed her after a while.

Palaash still has the video of their proposal on his Instagram account, which took place at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai, as of the time of writing.. It is the same ground where Team India lifted the Women's World Cup 2025 trophy. Smriti, on the other hand, deleted all the wedding and engagement-related pictures and videos, including her proposal video.

Palaash's Instagram story read, "It’s been very difficult for me to see people react so easily on baseless rumours about something which has been most sacred to me. It’s the most difficult phase



of my life, and I will deal with it gracefully, holding on to my beliefs. I truly hope we, as a society, learn to pause before judging someone based on unverified gossip whose sources are never identified. Our words can wound in ways we may never understand."

It further read, "My team will be taking strict legal action against those spreading false and defamatory content. Thank you to everyone who has stood by me with kindness in this tough time. I have decided to move on in my life and step back from my personal relationship."

Smriti Mandhana, for her part, issued a separate statement on Instagram, saying, "Over the past few weeks there has been plenty of speculation around my life and I feel it is important for me to speak out at this time. I am a very private person and I would like to keep it that way but I need to clarify that the wedding is called off."

Mandhana further said in her post: "I would like to close this matter here and implore all of you to do the same. I request you to please respect the privacy of both families at this time and allow us the space to process and move on at our own pace."
