Bollywood actress Mrunal Thakur has finally addressed the swirling rumours linking her romantically to Tamil superstar Dhanush. After weeks of speculation fueled by their public appearances and social media buzz, Mrunal has stepped forward to clarify the nature of their relationship.
Mrunal’s Statement
In an interview cited by Only Kollywood, Mrunal said:
“I’m aware that a lot of news has been circulating about the two of us being linked together recently. I just found it funny when I saw it. Dhanush is just a good friend to me.”
She also clarified that Dhanush’s presence at the Son of Sardaar 2 screening was not due to her invitation:
“Dhanush attended the event because Ajay Devgn invited him. No one should misunderstand that.”
What Sparked the Rumours?
The dating buzz began when Mrunal was seen at the wrap-up party of Tere Ishq Mein, a film starring Dhanush. Their camaraderie at the event, followed by Mrunal’s Instagram activity—where she reportedly followed Dhanush’s sisters—added fuel to the speculation.
Photos of the duo interacting at the Son of Sardaar 2 screening further intensified the gossip, with fans and media outlets suggesting a budding romance.
Dhanush’s Personal Life
Dhanush, who was previously married to Aishwaryaa Rajinikanth, finalized his divorce in 2024 after 18 years of marriage. The couple shares two sons, Yatra and Linga. Since the separation, Dhanush has kept his personal life largely private.
Professional Front
Mrunal was last seen in Son of Sardaar 2 and is currently working on multiple projects, including the action drama Dacoit and a romantic comedy Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai. Dhanush, meanwhile, continues to receive acclaim for his role in Kuberaa.
