(Palash is extremely attached to Smiti’s father… the two of them are even closer than Smriti is with him. When he fell ill, it was Palash who decided that he would not go ahead with the wedding rituals until uncle gets better.)”

Talking about Palash’s condition his mother mentioned – “Rote rote ek dum tabiyat kharab ho gayi… 4 ghante hospital mein rakhna pada… IV drip chadhi, ECG hua… sab normal aaye, par stress bahut hai. (He cried so much that his condition suddenly worsened… He had to be kept in the hospital for 4 hours… he was put on an IV drip, an ECG was done… everything came back normal, but he is under a lot of stress.)”
Amita even described how Smriti’s father Srinivas was in high spirits and danced his heart out in the wedding festivities. “Ek din pehle unhone bahut dance kiya… Instagram par stories daal rahe the… bahut zyada khush the.
