Smriti Mandhana To Tie The Knot Today With Palash Muchhal: Here’s How Their Love Story Unfolded
World Cup hero Smriti Mandhana is all set to begin a new chapter off the field as she ties the knot with music composer and filmmaker Palash Muchhal this Sunday. The wedding will take place in her hometown of Sangli, Maharashtra, in a private afternoon ceremony attended only by close family and a few trusted friends. The celebrations have already been filled with warm, emotional moments, offering fans a rare peek into the more cheerful and playful side of the usually reserved cricket star.
A Love Story Away from the Spotlight
Mandhana and Muchhal first met in 2019 through mutual friends in Mumbai’s creative circles. While their professions often kept them traveling and in the public eye, the two carefully nurtured their relationship away from attention. Smriti continued cementing her place as one of Indian cricket’s most celebrated players, while Palash expanded his footprint in film and music. Despite busy schedules, they were each other’s strongest support systems.
For years, the couple chose silence over spectacle. It was only in July 2024, on their fifth anniversary, that they finally acknowledged their relationship publicly through a simple, heartfelt post a moment that instantly won the internet’s love.
A Proposal to Remember
Their love story took a cinematic turn earlier this year after India lifted the Women’s ODI World Cup. Right after the title win at Navi Mumbai’s DY Patil Stadium, Palash led a blindfolded Smriti back onto the pitch where she had created history. There, he dropped to one knee and proposed a moment that quickly became one of the most talked-about romantic highlights in Indian sport. Palash even marked his promise permanently with a tattoo reading SM18, combining her initials and jersey number.
A Big Year with a Bigger Celebration
The wedding comes just weeks after Mandhana helped secure India’s World Cup victory, making the celebration even more special for the star batter and her family. For both Smriti and Palash, keeping things simple and meaningful has always been their style, and their small, close-knit wedding reflects exactly that.
November 23, 2025, is set to be another date the couple and their fans will cherish for years to come, marking the beginning of a new partnership as powerful as Mandhana’s performances on the field.
