Despite the unfollowing rumors being false, Mandhana has removed all posts related to her wedding from her social media accounts.

The couple's wedding was initially set for November 23 but had to be postponed due to medical emergencies in both families.

Mandhana's father was rushed to the hospital with heart-attack-like symptoms on the morning of the ceremony, and soon after, Muchhal also fell ill and required medical care.

She said, "Palash is very emotionally attached to Smriti's father, Shrinivas Mandhana. Their relationship is even closer than the Smriti-Palash chemistry."

She added that Muchhal was very stressed after his future father-in-law fell ill and had to be hospitalized for four hours.
