Palash Muchhal Accused Of Infidelity By Smriti Mandhana's Childhood Friend: 'Caught With Another Woman During Wedding...'

Smriti Mandhana-Palaash Muchhal Wedding Controversy: Smriti Mandhana's wedding drama continues to unfold as the star batter's childhood friend, Vidnyan Mane, has made bombshell allegations against her ex-fiancé, Palash Muchhal, claiming he was caught red-handed with another woman during the wedding celebrations.

Mane alleges that Palash was beaten up by female cricketers present at the scene and has also accused him of financial misconduct.

“I was at the wedding celebrations (November, 23, 2025) when he was caught red-handed with another woman in bed. Bhayanak scene tha, he was beaten up by the Indian female cricketers. The entire family is chindi chor. I thought he’d get married and settle in Sangli, but it has completely backfired on me," Mane was quoted as saying by Hindustan Times.

Mane also accused him of cheating Rs 40 lakh for an unreleased film project. However, Palash has denied these allegations, calling them "baseless."

“When I met his mother (Amita Muchhal) last month, she said the budget to release the movie has now increased to ₹1.5 crore. They asked me to invest another ₹10 lakh or I wouldn’t get any money back. They started blackmailing me and threatened to throw me out of the film, thus I was forced to file a complaint," he said.

“After the wedding was called off, the family blocked me from everywhere. I found out that other artists from the movie had not received the payment they were due to receive either. I had heard of directors fleecing producers in the film industry but this is complete theft," Mane added.

Mane also claimed to have substantial proof against Palash Muchhal and is ready to share it with authorities and the media, aiming to reveal the truth about the Muchhal family.

“In light of the allegations made by Sangli-based Vidnyan Mane on social media, I wish to state that these claims against me are entirely baseless and factually incorrect. They have been made with malicious intent to tarnish my reputation, and they will not go unchallenged. My lawyer, Shreyansh Mithare, is exploring all legal avenues, and this matter will be dealt with strictly through the appropriate legal channels," Palash posted an Instagram story on Friday.
