Palaash Muchhal was spotted publicly for the first time after the controversy and postponement of his wedding with cricketer Smriti Mandhana.
He was seen at the airport with his mother, staying low-profile and visibly sad, dressed in a black outfit and carrying a book.
Palaash did not interact with paparazzi but also did not try to hide from cameras; his mother greeted someone politely before they left.
The couple’s wedding, earlier scheduled for 23 November, was postponed due to Palaash’s sudden health issues and a medical emergency in Smriti Mandhana’s family.
Reports say Palaash was initially admitted to a hospital in Sangli and later shifted to Mumbai for further tests; doctors indicated his condition was stress-related, not a heart disease.
Despite ongoing rumours on social media, neither Palaash nor Smriti has released an official statement, which has increased public curiosity about their relationship status.
