So let’s have a look about Smriti Mandhana Skips KBC 17 Shoot,
Mandhana was initially scheduled to be part of the Wednesday evening shoot, but she opted out due to personal reasons linked to her recently postponed wedding with music composer Palaash Muchhal.
Teammates Shine on the KBC Set
On November 26, many members of the Indian women’s cricket team attended the special shoot. Players including Sneh Rana, Harleen Deol, Shefali Verma, Deepti Sharma, Richa Ghosh, and Harmanpreet Kaur were present alongside head coach Amol Mujumdar, creating a buzz on social media. Viral videos captured the players posing for photos, giving fans a glimpse of the star-studded episode dedicated to India’s maiden Women’s World Cup triumph.
While the spotlight was on the team, Smriti’s absence was felt, as she had been initially included in the guest list. The cricketer’s decision to skip the shoot was respected by her teammates and fans, with many expressing support amid the personal challenges she is facing.
Wedding Postponement Due to Family Emergency
Smriti Mandhana and Palaash Muchhal were set to marry on November 23 in Sangli, Maharashtra. The pre-wedding celebrations, including haldi, mehendi, and sangeet ceremonies, had already taken place. However, the couple decided to postpone the wedding after Smriti’s father, Srinivas Mandhana, suffered a sudden health emergency and required hospitalization.
Palaash’s mother, Amita Muchhal, revealed that it was Palaash who decided to delay the wedding due to the emotional stress surrounding Smriti’s father’s condition. He reportedly refused to continue with the rituals despite the haldi ceremony being completed. The incident reportedly left Palaash briefly hospitalized for observation.
Social Media Speculation
Following the postponement, Smriti removed pre-wedding pictures from her social media accounts, sparking rumors and online speculation. Some unverified reports suggested potential issues between Smriti and Palaash, but neither party nor their families have made any public statements.
As fans eagerly await clarity on the wedding, Smriti continues to focus on personal matters while maintaining her distance from public events. The upcoming KBC episode featuring her teammates is still set to honor India’s Women’s World Cup victory.
