The chaos surrounding the postponed wedding of music composer Palash Muchhal and Indian cricket star Smriti Mandhana has taken several unexpected turns over the past few days. What started as a health emergency within the family soon spiralled into a storm of rumors, anonymous Reddit posts, unverified claims, and names being dragged into the narrative without proof. Now, choreographer Nandika Dwivedi speaks on the controversy.
And right at the centre of this speculation stood someone who had nothing to do with it — choreographer Nandika Dwivedi. As online discussions intensified and her name was pulled into the ongoing drama, pressure mounted. Trolling increased. Fake stories multiplied. And for the first time, Nandika decided she had to speak.
Her statement has now gone viral. Her words are clear. And her message is firm:
She had no involvement in the situation.
Nandika Dwivedi Breaks Silence: ‘Assumptions… Are Simply Not True’

For days, rumors claimed that Nandika had some “compromising connection” with Palash and that she played a role in the last-minute postponement of the wedding. These whispers began on Reddit, then spread across social media, and eventually hit online news portals.
Finally, Nandika addressed the matter head-on.
In the first part of her Instagram story, she wrote:
“Over the past few days, I’ve seen speculation about my involvement in a situation that has been deeply personal for other people. I want to address and clarify that the assumptions being made about me, particularly the idea that I played a role in disrupting anyone’s relationship, are simply NOT true.”
This one statement was enough to reset the conversation. No hesitation. No vague denial. No dodging. Just a firm and direct clarification.
She went on to describe how disturbing and frustrating it had been to watch a false narrative blow up around her. Her second quote made that clear:
“It’s extremely painful to watch a narrative form around something I had no part in, and even more difficult to see how quickly these stories grow without any basis in reality.”
She then addressed the role of media in amplifying unverified information:
“Media outlets specifically are publishing articles with information from forums like Reddit where anyone can post whatever they want resulting in defamation.”
Her frustration was visible. Her disappointment was real. This was someone caught in the crossfire of a rumor storm she never invited.
Nandika Dwivedi Opens Up About Mental Toll
The final part of her statement was even more emotional. This wasn’t just a clarification — it was a plea. Nandika Dwivedi wrote:
“Please understand, this will not be easy for me to come out of, I can not be falsely accused anymore. Please.”
Then she revealed the impact this episode had on her and the people around her. She shared:
“I have been watching those I care about feel stressed and hurt by information that is not true and it is taking a toll on my mental health.”
Things had escalated far beyond online rumors. Nandika admitted that she had even received threats — something her family witnessed — which forced her to make her Instagram account private.
Her final message was heartfelt and honest:
“Please, I request you all to stop the rumors… I have sacrificed a lot to come to Mumbai, to work and achieve my goals. Please do not take my name further than this, I have nothing to do with any of it.”
And she ended with a line that many connected with:
“Eventually the truth will find its way.”

Before these rumours surfaced, Nandika Dwivedi was simply one of the choreographers working behind the scenes for the Palash–Smriti wedding celebrations.

According to reports:
- She is a professional dancer.
- She has worked with well-known choreographers like Piyush Bhagat and Shazia Samji.
- She featured as the lead dancer in Mansimran’s music video “Tere Piche.”
- She was assigned by celebrity choreographer Bosco Martis to help train Palash for his sangeet performance.
Her involvement was strictly professional. Nothing beyond that. Yet her name ended up trending for all the wrong reasons.
How The Rumors Started
The speculation around Nandika was mainly triggered by discussions on Reddit. Anonymous posts suggested she had a “compromising connection” with Palash. These posts gained traction only because Palash had earlier been linked to another woman, Mary D’Costa, who had shared screenshots of alleged chats with him — screenshots whose authenticity remains unverified till today.
As the wedding postponement gained more attention, people online began connecting unrelated dots.
And just like that, Nandika Dwivedi’s name entered the narrative — without any proof.
A Small Shift In The Narrative?

Interestingly, after Nandika Dwivedi’s statement went live, fans noticed something else. Both Palash and Smriti updated their Instagram bios with matching evil eye emojis, sparking new conversations.
- Did this mean they were still together?
- Was the relationship fine?
- Were they working through the situation privately?
No one knows. But the matching emojis hinted at solidarity — and perhaps an attempt to ward off negativity.
Conclusion
The Palash–Smriti wedding postponement has turned into one of the most talked-about topics of the week, but much of the drama has come from unverified rumours rather than facts. And in the middle of this noise, an innocent person found herself battling accusations she had nothing to do with.
Nandika Dwivedi’s statement is a reminder of how quickly misinformation spreads, how damaging online speculation can be, and how important it is to pause before believing unverified claims.
Her message is clear. Her words are honest. She was dragged into a situation that wasn’t hers — and all she wants now is the truth to come out.
