Smriti Mandhana’s friend drops surprising statement on Palash Muchhal
Mandhana, after the incident, has returned to competitive cricket in the Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2026 for the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB). The left-handed opener smashed 192 runs in five innings at an average of 48 and a strike rate of 140.14, thanks to one half-century.
“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.” Mane shed light.
“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. I have saved all proofs, including my chats and phone conversations that I’m willing to share with the police and the media.” Mandhana’s friend concluded.
