I really want to fall in love, says Mrunal Thakur

Mrunal Thakur is basking in the success of two hit films — Super 30 opposite Hrithik Roshan, and Batla House co-starring John Abraham. But other than box office success, she has also been overwhelmed with the love that she has been receiving from the audience. “I have got so many marriage proposals on social media post Super 30 and Batla House. Messages that say, ‘Can I marry you?’, ‘You are the perfect wife material’, ‘I am crushing on you’. Such messages are so sweet and I have never heard or received reactions like this before. It is wonderful. I remember, once I was returning home after pack up of my film, this teenager met me and literally jumped on me. She gave me a tight hug and kept calling me Bulbul, the name of my character from my last TV show. When people show such unadulterated love, personally or via messages, I don’t know how to respond,” says the Love Sonia (2018) actor.

Talking about her personal love life, she says, “Love is important and I am waiting for it. I really want to fall in love. I want a man who can cook and sing for me (laughs). I want him to travel with me as I love to travel and he has to make me laugh.”

Mrunal has a number of films in her kitty. She is shooting for Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra’s Toofan, co-starring Farhan Akhtar, a horror anthology film called Ghost Stories and the Telugu remake of Jersey, starring Shahid Kapoor. She points out that she has a long way to go, “but one actor who is on my wish list is Ranveer SIngh. He is a fabulous actor and bagging a film with him would be mind blowing”.
