Indian women's cricketer Smriti Mandhana was seen showing off her dance moves during the Sangeet ceremony ahead of her wedding with Palash Muchhal.

In a video that surfaced on social media on Sunday, the left-handed batter was seen grooving to the song 'Desi Girl', seemingly dancing with her family members.

The 29-year-old, one of the most accomplished women's cricketers India has produced, married music composer Palash Muchhal on November 23, Sunday. The two reportedly began dating in 2019 and officially acknowledged their relationship in July 2024 with an adorable Instagram post.

Recently, Palash proposed to Mandhana at the Dr. DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai, where India created history recently by lifting the 50-overs World Cup for the first time.

Meanwhile, watch the below video from the Sangeet ceremony:

Both Mandhana and Palash shook a leg together as well. Here's a look at the same:

The Dr. DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai saw the Women in Blue defeat South Africa in the final by 52 runs to win the trophy. They had reached the final two times before but broke the jinx this year to send the fans into a frenzy.

With 434 runs in the tournament, the 29-year-old was the second-highest run-getter and peeled off the most runs for India. It also came at a healthy average of 54.25 in nine innings with a best of 109 against New Zealand.

The co-hosts had slipped to three consecutive losses to South Africa, Australia and England at one stage of the competition. But the upward curve began after emerging victorious in the must-win fixture against New Zealand as they qualified for the semi-finals.

The semi-final saw India lock horns against defending champions Australia. Chasing a stiff 339, Mandhana, the vice-captain, was out for a run-a-ball 24 but Jemimah Rodrigues struck a 134-ball 127 as India stunned Australia by five wickets. Mandhana chipped in with a solid 45 in the final to forge a 104-run opening stand with Shafali Varma as the Women in Blue reached a match-winning total of 298.
