Mrunal Thakur has found herself in the middle of a controversy yet again due to another older interview. In the video, she is seen talking about how she said no to a movie that went on to become a huge hit. However, what caught netizens’ attention is Mrunal’s comment on the actress who replaced her.
In the video, Mrunal said, “So many. I said no, honestly, because I was not ready. Controversies hojayegi. It became a super hit and did help the female actress to reach there. But, then I realised if I would have done that film at that point of time I would have lost myself.”
However, these comments on the actress raised eyebrows among the netizens, “Then she is not working at the moment, but I am, is itself a victory because I don’t want instant gratification, instant recognition, instant fame because anything that comes instantly goes away instantly.”
One Reddit user commented, “I think it is Sultan and Anushka.” Another netizen commented, “Movie Sultan Actress – Anushka Sharma, Cause I saw a video where she said she got a Sultan movie, lekin end me anushka final hui something like that. Plus, Anushka isn’t working. I might be wrong.”

Earlier, Mrunal’s older interview, in which she was seen talking about Bipasha Basu’s physique, received huge backlash online. She soon apologised for her comments and wrote on Instagram, “19-year-old me as a teenager said many silly things. I didn’t always understand the weight of my voice or how much words, even in jest, could hurt. But it did, and for that I am deeply sorry.”
She added, “My intent was never to body-shame anyone. It was playful banter in an interview that went too far. But I understand how it came across, and I truly wish I had chosen my words differently. With time, I have grown to appreciate that beauty comes in every form, and that’s something I truly value now.”
In her old video, Mrunal was seen giving an interview with her co-star Arjit Taneja. The controversy was caused due to her remark, “Do you want to marry a girl who is manly with muscles? Go marry Bipasha.” She added, “Listen, I am far better than Bipasha, okay?”
This did not sit well with netizens, who slammed Mrunal for body-shaming Bipasha. Later, Bipasha also shared a cryptic note regarding the controversy but did not name Mrunal. The note read, “Strong women lift each other up. Get those muscles beautiful ladies… we should be strong… muscles help you attain good physical and mental health forever! Bust the age old thought process that women should not look strong or be physically strong!”
