Forget Mrunal's Rumoured Boyfriend Dhanush, Meet Her Brother Dhaval Thakur

While the internet continues to buzz over Mrunal Thakur and Dhanush's dating rumours, a new video is now dragging someone else into the spotlight-her cousin, Dhaval Thakur.

Meet Mrunal Thakur's Brother

During the screening of her upcoming film Son of Sardaar 2 last weekend, Mrunal introduced Dhaval to the media. But unfortunately, the cameras were more interested in her rumoured romance than in her cousin. And just to clarify-he's not her biological brother, but a paternal cousin.

Now, Dhaval Thakur is getting some attention of his own. Turns out, he's not just related to Mrunal-he's also an actor.

Who Is Dhaval Thakur?

Dhaval began his acting journey in 2014 with Love By Chance, where he played Mahendra on Bindass channel. Since then, he's been part of various ad films and acted in web series like Modern Love Mumbai (2022), Duranga (2022), and Thukra Ke Mera Pyaar (2024).

Are Mrunal Thakur and Dhanush actually dating?

A video that recently went viral online shows Dhanush holding hands with Mrunal and the two sharing what seemed like a private chat-Mrunal even leaned in closer to him while talking.

What fueled the gossip even more? Dhanush flew down to Mumbai just to attend the screening of Son Of Sardaar 2, which stars Mrunal alongside Ajay Devgn. A social media user posted the video with the caption: "Dhanush and Mrunal Thakur are dating?" and just like that, the internet exploded.

A report by News18 Showsha didn't beat around the bush either. "Yes, it's true that they are dating. But it's too new and they've no plans of making their relationship official before the public or the media. At the same time, they're unfazed about going out and about and being spotted. Friends are truly rooting for them as they're quite similar and compatible when it comes to their values, choices and thoughts," the source revealed.

And how did sparks fly between the two? According to the same source: "The success of Sita Ramam opened doors for Mrunal in the South film industry. She has simultaneously been working in Mumbai too. Mrunal, who is currently shooting for Dacoit: A Love Story with Adivi Sesh, keeps shuttling between Mumbai and Hyderabad, and it's during an event down South where she met Dhanush."
