Palash Muchhal also issues statement

Soon after Mandhana's post, Palash Muchhal issued his own statement, confirming that he had "decided to move on" and expressing anguish over what he described as baseless online chatter. "I have decided to move on in my life and step back from my personal relationship. It's been very difficult for me to see people react so easily on baseless rumours about something which has been most sacred to me.

"It's the most difficult phase of my life and I will deal with it gracefully holding on to my beliefs," he wrote. He urged the public to reflect before amplifying unverified claims.

"I truly hope we, as a society, learn to pause before judging someone based on unverified gossip, whose sources are never identified. Our words can wound in ways we may never understand," he added.

Palash Muchhal also said his team would take legal action against those spreading false and defamatory content. "My team will be taking strict legal action against those spreading false and defamatory content," he said, thanking those who had supported him with "kindness" during this period.

The development comes days after singer Palak Muchhal, sister of Palash, spoke on the issue. "I think the families have been through a very tough time... we would like to spread positivity as much as we can. We are also trying to stay strong," she had said.
