In an elaborate congratulatory note to Mandhana and Muchhal, PM Modi extended his warm wishes to the couple, praising their shared values and wishing them a life rooted in trust, love and harmony. He said Mandhana’s “cover drive” and Muchhal’s “musical symphony” would come together in a wonderful partnership. 

"It is fitting that a Celebration Cricket Match has been scheduled between Team Groom and Team Bride! May both these teams win in the game of life. I send my blessings to the couple for the momentous occasion," the letter concluded.

The couple's relationship, which began in 2019, was largely kept private until making a soft public debut in 2024. According to reports, the high-profile wedding will take place in Sangli, Maharashtra.
