Smriti Mandhana brought her Haldi ceremony to life with an energetic dance performance alongside several of her Indian teammates, creating a joyful all-yellow atmosphere. She is scheduled to marry music composer Palash Muchhal on November 23.

On the dance floor, she was joined by Shafali Verma, Richa Ghosh, Shreyanka Patil, Renuka Singh, Shivali Shinde, Radha Yadav, and Jemimah Rodrigues, all donning bright yellow outfits to complement the festive theme. The sense of camaraderie was evident as the group danced to lively wedding tunes, celebrating Mandhana’s special day with contagious enthusiasm.

Shinde, who plays alongside Mandhana for the Ratnagiri Jets in the Women’s Maharashtra Premier League, added a unique flair to the celebration. Shreyanka’s attendance was particularly notable, marking her first public appearance since her last game for India at the 2024 T20 World Cup.

The event also served as a heartwarming cricket reunion, uniting World Cup champions Shafali, Radha, Richa, Renuka, and Jemimah. Shafali later posted a video of Mandhana’s dance on social media, captioning it “Ladki Wale.”
