Following the sudden postponement of Palash Muchhal and Smriti Mandhana’s wedding, several pre-wedding posts and photos that had been circulating widely on social media have now been removed or hidden. The move comes as both families cope with an unexpected health emergency and request privacy during this sensitive period.
Before the delay, fans had been treated to glimpses of the couple’s joyful celebrations, including mehendi snapshots, festive outfits and behind-the-scenes moments with family and friends. These posts quickly gained traction, generating excitement around the wedding and drawing warm responses from followers of both Smriti and Palash.
However, soon after news emerged that Smriti Mandhana’s father had been hospitalised due to a health complication, many of the shared images began disappearing from social media platforms. Posts from close friends, family members and fan pages were removed or archived, signalling a collective decision to shift the focus away from celebratory content.
Sources close to the families indicated that both sides wished to avoid unwanted attention and speculation, especially while dealing with medical concerns. The removal of posts is being seen as a measure to protect the privacy of the families and reduce pressure on the couple during this challenging time.
Singer Palak Muchhal, sister of Palash, also issued a public statement requesting that the media and fans respect their space. She noted that both families are prioritising health and recovery, and she asked everyone to refrain from sharing unverified information or circulating photos from the pre-wedding ceremonies.
Fans responded with understanding and support, offering prayers and positive messages across social platforms. Many expressed that privacy during such emotional moments is essential, and they appreciated the families’ decision to step back from the spotlight until circumstances improve.
The wedding, which was originally planned to take place on 23 November in Sangli, remains postponed indefinitely. Future updates will be shared by the families only once the situation stabilises.
