Actor Mrunal Thakur has set the record straight about her marriage plans, revealing that while a wedding is certainly part of her future, it will happen strictly on her own terms. The actress also firmly dismissed recent rumours linking her romantically to Dhanush, calling the speculation unfounded.
In a recent interaction with PTI, the Sita Ramam star shared that marriage is “on the cards,” but only when the timing and the person feel right. Addressing ongoing curiosity around her personal life, she made it clear that she is in no rush and values authenticity over pressure.
“Yes, wedding is on the cards and whenever the right day, the right time and the right person walks into my life, I will be the first one to announce it on my social networking sites,” Mrunal said confidently.
A Modern Perspective on Marriage
The actress reflected on how attitudes toward marriage have changed over time. According to her, earlier generations often tied the knot due to social expectations or family pressures. Today, however, individuals are more focused on emotional compatibility and personal choice.
“Earlier, people might have had certain reasons to get married, but today, people marry because they want to, and they want to do it with the right person,” she explained.
Her comments highlight a shift in societal norms, especially among young professionals in the entertainment industry, who increasingly prioritize personal happiness and mutual respect over tradition alone.
Shutting Down Valentine’s Day Wedding Buzz
Recently, social media was abuzz with claims that Mrunal was secretly dating Dhanush and that the two were planning to get married on Valentine’s Day 2026. The rumours spread rapidly online, sparking widespread speculation.
However, in an interview with Galatta Plus, Mrunal strongly denied the reports. Responding to indirect questions about an alleged February 14 wedding, she dismissed the claims with humor and disbelief.
“Me? No. I think 14th April is going to be the 1st April… 14th Feb is going to be the 1st April. April Fools’ Day,” she said, pointing out that she had never made any such statement. She also expressed concern over being misquoted, calling the situation “scary.”
How the Rumours Began
Speculation about Mrunal and Dhanush began circulating last year, though neither actor ever confirmed a relationship. Buzz intensified after Mrunal attended the wrap-up party of Dhanush’s film Tere Ishk Mein. Later, she was seen warmly welcoming him at the premiere of Son of Sardaar 2, where the two shared a friendly hug. Images and videos from the event quickly fueled dating rumours across social platforms.
Despite the chatter, Mrunal has made it clear that there is no wedding on the horizon — at least not one involving Valentine’s Day or secret plans.
What’s Next for Mrunal?
On the professional front, the actress continues to stay busy. She is set to star opposite Siddhant Chaturvedi in Do Deewane Seher Mein, which is scheduled for release on February 20, 2026. With a growing filmography and strong performances across industries, Mrunal remains one of the most sought-after talents in Indian cinema.
For now, fans will have to wait patiently for any official wedding announcement. As Mrunal herself has promised, when the time comes, she will be the first to share the news directly — no rumours, no speculation, just the truth from her.
