Mrunal Thakur is DONE playing polite. The Sita Ramam star just delivered a line so cold, so lethal, and so effortlessly iconic that the entire gossip ecosystem went silent for a full five seconds. After fresh rumours linked her to cricketer Shreyas Iyer—and earlier to Dhanush—the actress didn’t defend, deny, or tiptoe. She obliterated. With one sentence. And the internet is still replaying it like a finishing move.




1. The Rumour That Sparked the Fire


The latest storm claimed Mrunal Thakur was dating star cricketer Shreyas Iyer. social media ran with it. Fan pages lit up. Meme factories worked overtime. And bollywood whisper networks behaved like they had just discovered oxygen.


2. Mrunal’s Reply? A MASTERPIECE in Public Relations Murder


She didn’t scream. She didn’t panic.
She simply dropped:
“Rumours are free PR, and I love free stuff.”
A line so savage it deserves its own national award. In one stroke, she turned gossip into marketing—and trolls into unpaid interns.


3. Not Her First Rodeo With Dumb Speculation


Before this cricket-powered rumour, people linked her to dhanush just because they were seen together and posted photos vaguely close in timeline. Some even zoomed in on pixels searching for “clues.”
Mrunal shut that down too—clean, calm, factual. zero drama. Maximum dignity.
Basically: Stop imagining plots. I’m not your screenplay.


4. The Internet Can’t Handle a Woman Existing Without a Boyfriend


Because god forbid an actress rise, shine, deliver hits, travel, post selfies, meet colleagues, breathe air—without netizens pairing her with someone by lunch.


5. Her Work Diary Is Hotter Than Any Dating Rumour


After winning hearts with Sita Ramam and recently appearing in Son of Sardaar 2, she’s marching ahead with her next film, Do Deewane Seher Mein.
Careers on fire don’t need relationship rumours for hype—and she knows it.


6. The Message Between the Lines? Crystal Clear.


Mrunal Thakur is not here to babysit speculation.
She’s here to build a legacy, steal screens, and serve attitude with elegance.
And if gossip writers insist on writing fiction?
Fine.
She’ll take the free promotion.


7. The Takeaway: Don’t Mess With a Woman Who Uses Rumours as Free Marketing


She didn’t defend her reputation—she weaponised it.
A queen move.
A power move.
A playbook-rewriting move the industry won’t forget.
