Actor Mrunal Thakur, accompanied by actor Shahid Kapoor, promoted her sports drama Jersey when he commented batsman Virat Kohli.
Resurfaced on social media recently was an old statement by Mrunal Thakur declaring that she was’madly in love’ with cricket player Virat Kohli. Furthermore, the actor is not cool with it and wants the media to quit using it so frequently.
What happened
A recent Instagram post by the media source Instant Bollywood featured a little clip from Mrunal’s previous interview in which she talks about Virat Kohli and declares her love for him. The actor wasn’t happy to be back in the limelight when social media users began to remark on the post.
The star vented her displeasure in the comment section. “@instantbollywood STOP IT OK,” the writer stated.
Mrunal’s comment
She said this in support of Jersey, the movie that focused on the world of cricket.
I used to be completely enamored with Virat Kohli. Because my brother is a huge cricket fan, I developed an interest in the sport. About five years ago, I had the pleasure of spending time with him during a live sporting event at a stadium. I recall supporting Team India while donning a blue shirt. Now, imagine that I am a part of a cricket-based movie such as Jersey. “What a joyful coincidence,” she had said to Etimes.
Shahid Kapoor also starred in the movie. The sports drama told the tale of a former cricket player who returns to the game in his mid-30s to achieve his son’s ambition. It was a remake of the Telugu film of the same name. When it was released in 2022, the movie did not do well at the box office.
Mrunal’s upcoming work
Vijay Deverakonda was featured in Family Star, where Mrunal was last seen. In addition to Abhinaya, Vasuki, Rohini Hattangadi, and Ravi Babu, the film also stars Divyansha Kaushik in a special role. Audiences’ reaction to it when it was first released was ambivalent. Alongside Kamal Haasan, Amitabh Bachchan, Prabhas, and Deepika Padukone, she also had a brief appearance in Nag Ashwin’s Kalki 2898 AD. In her cat, she has a production by Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Pooja Meri Jaan.
