“Palash ko uncle se bahut zyada attachment hai… Smriti se zyada yeh dono close hain. Jab unko hogaya toh Smriti se phele Palash ne decision liya ke usko abhi phere nahi karne jab tak uncle thik nahi ho jaate (Palash is extremely attached to Smriti’s father… The two of them are even closer than Smriti is with him.

Amita also explained what transpired which led to Palash getting hospitalised.
“Since haldi was done, we didn’t let him go outside. Rote rote ek dum tabiyat karab ho gai. 4 ghante hospital mein rakhna padha. IV drip chadi, ECG hua aur dosre tests hoye. Sab normal aaye but stress bahut hai (He cried so much that his health suddenly deteriorated. They kept him in the hospital for four hours. He was given an IV drip, an ECG was done, and other tests were carried out. Everything came back normal, but he is under a lot of stress),” Amita said.
“We have got Palash back to Mumbai now. He is feeling better and resting now… But stress is there… His sister Palak has also left Sangli and coming to be with him,” Amita, while sharing an update on Palash's health.
How is Smriti Mandhana’s father now?
Dr Naman Shah, Director of Sarvhit Hospital, also reflected upon Srinivas Mandhana's health. He said, “Srinivas Manandana, Smriti Manandana’s father, experienced symptoms of a heart attack around 11:30 after feeling left-sided chest pain. He was immediately transferred to Sarvhit Hospital and Medical Research Center in Sangli for further assessment. Despite his slightly raised cardiac enzymes, he requires ongoing observation.”
He added, “There are no new findings on the echocardiogram. However, he may need continuous ECG monitoring and, if necessary, angiography. Currently, his blood pressure is slightly elevated, so he needs continuous monitoring… It could be due to physical or mental stress, perhaps because it is wedding season with a lot of hectic activity…”
Amita also added that Smriti's father was 'very' happy and excited for the wedding.

Phele toh unhone bataya nahi but jab badne lagi, ambulance bulai (A day earlier, he had been dancing a lot. He was extremely happy, even posting Stories on Instagram. But later, while we were planning the baraat procession, he started feeling discomfort. At first, he didn’t say anything, but when it worsened, we called an ambulance).”
