Palash Muchhal Faces Fresh Cheating Claims, Deletes Smriti Mandhana Photos
Music composer Palash Muchhal is again at the center of controversy after new allegations by Vidnyan Mane; he has filed a Rs 10 crore defamation suit and removed many posts with Smriti Mandhana.
Palash Muchhal is back in the spotlight as fresh cheating allegations surface from Vidnyan Mane, a friend of Smriti Mandhana. Mane claims Muchhal was found with another woman during pre-wedding festivities, an accusation he says led to a confrontation involving cricketers. Muchhal has denied the claims and has moved to the courts, filing a defamation suit worth Rs 10 crore against Mane.
In the midst of the dispute, Muchhal quietly deleted several Instagram posts that featured Mandhana. A look at his account shows multiple photos—ranging from affectionate birthday wishes to festive moments—that have vanished by late January 2026.
The drama traces back to plans for a wedding on November 23, 2025, which was reportedly postponed after Mandhana’s father was rushed to the hospital, bringing the celebrations to an abrupt halt. Mane’s latest accusations also include that Muchhal cheated him of around Rs 40 lakh and claimed he promised profits and a role in Mane’s film Nazaria that never materialized. Mane, who is Sangli-based, says he was present at the wedding festivities where he was supposedly caught in the act with another woman and then confronted by Mandhana’s friends. He claims he was beaten by Indian female cricketers in what he described as a “bhayanak scene.” Muchhal has since responded with legal action, stating a defamation case has been filed and that he intends to clear his name publicly via the courts.
Meanwhile, Mane has filed a formal complaint in Sangli, Maharashtra, and Muchhal’s team says they will pursue all legal avenues to settle the matter. The unfolding case centers on personal relationships, alleged financial disputes, and the sprawling reach of social media in exposing private moments of public figures.
