Actress Mrunal Thakur is back in the spotlight, this time over fresh dating rumours involving Team India cricketer Rishabh Pant. The speculation gained momentum after fans noticed that the two recently started following each other on Instagram, triggering widespread discussion on social media.

The rumours come just weeks after Mrunal dismissed similar speculation linking her with actor Dhanush. As of now, neither Mrunal nor Rishabh Pant has responded to the latest buzz, leaving fans guessing.

Amid the ongoing chatter, Mrunal has once again impressed fashion enthusiasts with her glamorous appearance. She recently turned heads in a shimmery silver embellished cutout gown, complemented by layered diamond and emerald necklaces, earning praise for her elegant style.

Professionally, however, 2026 has been a challenging year for the actress. Her three consecutive releases—Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai, Dacoit: A Love Story, and Do Deewane Seher Mein—failed to make an impact at the box office.

Despite the recent setbacks, industry buzz suggests that Mrunal could soon bounce back with a major project. Reports indicate that she is being considered for a key role in Allu Arjun’s much-awaited film Raka, although an official announcement is still awaited.

With her personal life making headlines and an exciting new project reportedly on the horizon, Mrunal Thakur continues to remain one of the most talked-about actresses in the industry.
