Smriti Mandhana & Palash Muchhal: Inside a Power Couple's Rise
Here’s a story that’s been making waves lately, and honestly, it’s one of those rare crossovers where cricket, music, cinema, and celebrity culture blend into something truly fascinating. Indian cricket star Smriti Mandhana and composer-director Palash Muchhal are now officially set to marry on November 23, 2025 — and ever since the news broke, their personal journey and combined financial success have been getting a lot of attention.
So, let’s talk about why people are calling them one of India’s most powerful celebrity couples right now.
Smriti Mandhana, as most fans know, is already a giant in women’s cricket. She’s the vice-captain of the national team and a dependable left-handed opener whose performances continue to shape modern Indian women’s cricket. Her income reflects her stature: she is part of the BCCI’s Grade A central contract, which carries a ₹50-lakh annual retainer. On top of that, every match she plays adds significant value — around ₹15 lakh per Test, ₹6 lakh for each ODI, and ₹3 lakh per T20I. And then, of course, there’s the WPL, where Royal Challengers Bangalore picked her for a massive ₹3.4 crore, making her one of the world’s highest-paid women cricketers.

But cricket isn’t her only source of earnings. Off the field, Smriti has become a favourite for major global and Indian brands — Hyundai, Nike, Mastercard, Hero MotoCorp, Red Bull, Garnier, UNICEF India, and the list goes on. Each campaign brings in ₹50–75 lakh, depending on its scale. All of this puts her estimated net worth somewhere around ₹32–34 crore.
Now comes Palash Muchhal — a name that has been quietly rising in the entertainment world. He stepped into Bollywood as a teenage composer with ‘Dishkiyaoon’, and since then, he’s created music for films like ‘Bhoothnath Returns’ and ‘Amit Sahni Ki List’, delivering hits such as ‘Party Toh Banti Hai’ and ‘Tu Hi Hai Aashiqui’. His income doesn’t just depend on composition fees; royalties from streaming, radio, and licensing continue to accumulate over the years.
But composing is only one part of his story. Palash has directed over 40 music videos for the biggest labels in India, and he’s now venturing into filmmaking with a full-length feature titled ‘Raju Bajewala’. He has acted, he has performed live across countries, and many of his shows — especially with his sister Palak Muchhal — have supported charity efforts while strengthening his public presence. Altogether, estimates place his net worth in the ₹20–41 crore bracket.
Put the two together, and their combined financial strength lands somewhere between ₹50 crore and ₹75 crore. That’s why the buzz around their wedding isn’t just about romance — it’s about two thriving worlds merging at the peak of their success.
As their November wedding approaches, the spotlight isn’t just on their personal milestone — it’s on what this union means for the evolving landscape of Indian celebrity culture, where sports and entertainment continue to blend in new and exciting ways.
