In the latest buzz from the Indian film industry, Dhanush (acclaimed actor and filmmaker) is reportedly planning to direct a new female-centric film with Mrunal Thakur (noted actress) in the lead role. This project is said to be a period drama set in the 1960s or 1970s, showcasing a strong narrative focused on Thakur's character. While discussions about the film are believed to be in advanced stages, no official confirmation has been provided by either party. The rumors of a romantic link between Dhanush and Thakur began circulating in August 2025, following their appearance together at the premiere of 'Son of Sardaar 2' and Thakur's presence at the wrap party of Dhanush's film 'Tere Ishk Mein'. Fans have noted that Thakur follows Dhanush's family on social media, further fueling speculation. Despite the ongoing rumors, both actors have chosen to remain silent on the matter.
