Inside the Palash Muchhal–Smriti Mandhana Controversy

Mary D'Costa became the unexpected target of a scandal after "flirty chats" with director Palash Muchhal surfaced online, apparently adding to speculation about the postponement of his wedding with cricket player Smriti Mandhana. Her rumoured position as wedding choreographer fuelled the debate.

There is no reliable information on Mary D'Costa on the internet other than her Instagram handle, @marydcost_. There is no precise information regarding Mary D'Costa, but it is safe to presume that Palash Muchhal and Mary D'Costa have been in contact for some time. While speaking with Mary, Palaash discussed his 'long-distance' connection with the cricketer as well as travelling on 'tours' with her.

Palash was observed sending flirtatious texts to the girl, inviting her to join him for a swim, then a spa, and finally to Mumbai's Versova beach at 5 a.m. However, he did not respond when the woman asked if he loved her (Smriti).

Unidentified online users stated that Muchhal was spotted kissing a woman four days before his engagement, during a dance practice. Some have presented this as evidence of the involved relationship.

The allegations of "flirty chats" involving Palash Muchhal are the key basis for his public exposure. The essential issue is that Mary D'Costa is the enigmatic woman widely assumed to be either the source of these conversations or the one responsible for their release.

The communications were labelled as "flirty chats" between Muchhal and D'Costa, and the screenshots were temporarily posted online before being removed. Though the veracity and date of these communications have yet to be verified, their brief exposure was enough to cause a stir on social media, significantly increasing the dispute.
