RCB captain Smriti Mandhana couldn’t contain her laughter after Danish Sait (aka Mr. Nags) teased her with Palash Muchhal’s name on the RCB Insider Show. During the conversation, Mr. Nags asked if there were any “plus points” in her life and then playfully shifted to asking about “Palash points” in her life.
Responding to the teasing, the 28-year-old Mandhana replied, “What is Palash?”. Mr. Nags added a humorous twist, saying, “You tell me, what is Palash? You turn into Balash (blushing) when I mention Palash.”

Mandhana, who has been with RCB since the first season of the Women’s Premier League (WPL), couldn’t stop laughing. Turning away from Mr. Nags, she joked, “Marwayega ye mereko” (He’s going to get me into trouble).

Mandhana has often been spotted with Palash Muchhal, the elder brother of Bollywood playback singer Palak Muchhal. In November of last year, Palash spoke to Hindustan Times about his relationship with Mandhana.
“I’m very shy in public and an introvert. People don’t believe it because I have a lot of friends and I’ve been on stage as well. But even when I pose for pictures at events and parties, I feel very shy,” Palash Muchhal shared.
“I’m very proud, of course, because I am her partnerher boyfriend. I’m incredibly proud of her achievements. But I prefer to keep my personal life private. Right now, I think it’s the time to focus on work,” Palash added.
Recently, Palash was seen watching RCB’s matches at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. He also posed for photos with all-rounder Shreyanka Patil, who won the Purple Cap last year but was ruled out of the 2025 season due to injury.
On the other hand, Mandhana had a challenging time in the WPL as RCB failed to make the playoffs. In eight matches, she scored only 197 runs at an average of 24.62, with two half-centuries and a top score of 81.
