Who is Nandika Dwivedi? Social media has been in overdrive ever since news broke that Palash Muchhal and Smriti Mandhana’s wedding, planned for November 23, 2025, was postponed indefinitely. What was initially believed to be a decision made due to the sudden illness of Smriti’s father quickly took a dramatic turn online. Within hours, Reddit threads, anonymous posts, and unverified “screenshots” began circulating — all pointing toward rumors of infidelity.

First, a woman named Mary D’Costa made headlines for alleged flirtatious chats with Palash. Then another anonymous user claimed late-night calls. And now, a third name has suddenly entered the conversation — Nandika Dwivedi. But who is she, and why is the internet dragging her into a controversy with no confirmed facts? Let’s break down what’s real, what’s rumour, and who Nandika actually is.

 

Where The Rumors Started?

The chaos began when a woman named Mary D’Costa allegedly posted screenshots of conversations in which Palash seemed to be flirting and asking to meet. These screenshots went viral almost instantly, even though their authenticity remains completely unverified.

Soon after, Reddit saw another thread — this time claiming questionable phone calls involving Palash before the wedding. Again, no proof, no names, no confirmations.

And in the middle of this speculation storm, a new name suddenly popped up on social media: Nandika Dwivedi.

The strange part?

There is zero verified evidence, no official statements, and no credible reports linking her to Palash or any so-called incident. Her name appears to have surfaced purely because of one anonymous Reddit comment.

Yet, as we’ve seen countless times, one vague post is enough for social media to build an entire narrative.

 

Who Is Nandika Dwivedi?

According to publicly available information and media profiles:

  • She completed her B.Com from Delhi University.
  • She later pursued an MBA from IMT Ghaziabad.
  • She is a professional dancer and choreographer.
  • She has trained and worked with prominent industry names like Piyush Bhagat and Shazia Samji.
  • She has been associated with popular projects, including the music video “Besos” featuring Jacqueline Fernandez and Shikhar Dhawan.
  • Her Instagram bio lists her as a choreographer and personal instructor based in Mumbai.
  • She also appeared as the lead dancer in Mansimran’s “Tere Piche” music video.

Clearly, her career and work profile are genuine and substantial.

What’s Missing?

Any credible connection to the Palash–Smriti situation.

There is no verified link, no confirmed association, and no evidence suggesting she is involved in any rumour currently circulating online.

 

Why Is Nandika Dwivedi’s Name Being Mentioned?

The simple answer:

A single unverified Reddit comment.

That’s it.

Someone, without proof or identity, claimed that Nandika was somehow connected to the alleged “compromising situation” involving Palash. No screenshots. No messages. No witnesses. No second confirmation from any other source.

Yet, because the wedding postponement was already surrounded by speculation, her name started trending in smaller online circles.

This is the dangerous formula we see so often:

Anonymous post → People share it → More people react → Name gets dragged into a controversy without evidence.

Neither Palash nor Nandika has said a word publicly.

No journalist or credible outlet has reported her involvement.

No friend, colleague, or insider has confirmed anything.

Her name is circulating simply because the internet enjoys filling silence with theories.

 

The Reality Check: What We Actually Know

At this point, only two things are confirmed:

  1. The wedding has been postponed.
  2. Social media is full of unverified rumors.

Everything else — the chats, the calls, the alleged situation the night before the wedding, and the names being dragged into it — remains completely unverified.

There is no official confirmation of:

  • Any cheating
  • Any argument
  • Any third-person involvement
  • Any misconduct involving Mary or Nandika

The entire narrative is being shaped by anonymous posts, half-baked screenshots, and online assumptions.

 

Why This Rumor Spread So Fast

Several reasons:

High-profile individuals

Smriti Mandhana is one of India’s biggest cricket stars.
Palash Muchhal is a name connected to Bollywood music and filmmaking.
Anything involving them naturally draws huge attention.

A postponed wedding

When a wedding gets postponed so close to the date, curiosity spikes.

The silence

Neither side has spoken publicly.
Silence often creates a vacuum — and the internet rushes to fill it.

The chain reaction

One alleged chat went viral.
One user claimed calls.
One Redditor took a name.
And suddenly, an entire narrative was formed without a single verified fact.

 

Jemimah Rodrigues Withdraws From WBBL

Amid all the noise, another update intensified public interest. According to PTI, Jemimah Rodrigues withdrew from the remaining matches of the Women’s Big Bash League to stay with Smriti Mandhana during the postponed wedding period.

She had flown back to India for the wedding and, with the delay, chose not to return to Australia. This shows the emotional weight of the situation — but again, none of it confirms any of the allegations circulating online.

 

Conclusion

Right now, Nandika Dwivedi is being mentioned purely because of anonymous online speculation, not because of facts. She is a professional choreographer with zero verified connection to any of the claims. Until the people directly involved — Palash or Smriti — choose to speak, every rumour remains just that: a rumour.

This situation is a perfect example of how quickly the internet can drag someone into a controversy without evidence. A postponed wedding, a viral screenshot, and the silence of those involved were enough to trigger a storm. But until there is clarity, it’s important to remember that speculation is not truth — and names should not be attached to unverified stories.
