Mrunal Thakur Clears Air on Viral Dating Rumours With Dhanush and Shreyas Iyer

Mrunal Thakur has chosen humour to deal with talk about dating rumours. After weeks of gossip linking the actor with Dhanush and cricketer Shreyas Iyer, Mrunal shared a playful Instagram video instead of a long note, making a clear point without any direct explanation.

The clip shows Mrunal sitting calmly as her mother gives a head massage, while online debate continues elsewhere. Mrunal looks relaxed and distracted from the noise. Her caption read, "They talk, we laugh. P.S. Rumours are free PR and I love free stuff!"

Mrunal Thakur dating rumours with Dhanush resurface online

Curiosity around Mrunal and Dhanush had started much earlier, sparked by their social media exchanges. When Mrunal announced the film Do Deewane Sheher Mein with Siddhant Chaturvedi on Instagram, Dhanush commented, "Looks and sounds good." Mrunal replied using a heart emoji and a sunflower emoji.

That small chat soon travelled across platforms, as fans treated the comment as a clue. Screenshots spread on X within hours, pulling both names into trending lists. Interest then grew further when the two were seen sharing a warm hug at the Son of Sardaar 2 premiere earlier this year.
