One of the detrimental things about being in the film industry is the necessity to deal with rumours and unverified speculation on a regular basis. Actress Mrunal Thakur has multiple experiences of the same, and she is in the middle of a similar narrative again now.

For the last couple of days that have been extensive speculation that Mrunal Thakur is currently in a relationship with young Indian cricketer, Yashasvi Jaiswal.

Incidentally, a viral video of Mrunal and Jaiswal from restaurant in Mumbai had been trending on social platforms for the last few days. It was made to seem like Mrunal and Jaiswal had gone to a restaurant together, but left separately in order to avoid media attention.

This immediately lead to speculations about the relationship between the two of them, and there were a lot of theories that were made. But at the end of the day, there is no reality in either of them, considering that Mrunal and Jaiswal had not made a public appearance together till now and it is clear that the video was edited with two different clips.

Along with that, it needs to be kept in mind that Mrunal had been facing these speculations for a long time, as there were previously reports about her relationship with Dhanush.
