Mrunal Thakur is having quite the moment both on and off the red carpet. Recently, the Sita Ramam star addressed the wave of dating rumours linking her to Tamil superstar Dhanush. The speculation, she
revealed, was “funny,” clarifying with a smile that “Dhanush is just a good friend to me.” His appearance at the Son of Sardaar 2 event, she noted, was simply because the production invited him “nothing more, nothing less.” In true Mrunal fashion, she also touched on her belief in the concept of buri nazar the idea of not jinxing one’s dreams by speaking too soon.
If her words show her grounded, graceful side, her fashion choices prove she’s fearless when it comes to taking style risks. Here are five standout looks that perfectly capture Mrunal’s sartorial charm:
1. White-Hot Debut at Cannes
For her first-ever Cannes red carpet, Mrunal stepped out in a pristine white, cut-out gown by Falguni Shane Peacock, complete with a sweeping train. Minimal accessories let the silhouette speak, making it a masterclass in high-glam simplicity.
2. Shimmering Desi Glam
Also at Cannes, Mrunal brought a dose of homegrown sparkle to the French Riviera in a glittery Falguni Shane Peacock saree. Paired with a sleek bun and dewy makeup, it was the ultimate “desi diva” moment.
3. Festive Fusion at Lokmat Most Stylish

At the Lokmat Most Stylish Awards, she blended tradition with trend in a powder-blue floral cape layered over an embroidered bustier and satin skirt with pearl accents. It was festive dressing reimagined for the modern fashion lover.
4. Sleek Minimalism with an Edge
Back at Cannes, she switched gears in an architectural evening gown that proved less can be infinitely more. The clean lines and sharp tailoring were a refreshing contrast to the glitz.
5. Everyday Ethereal
Off-duty, Mrunal keeps things soft and wearable. Pastel-toned ensembles, relaxed drapes, and airy fabrics form her casual-day uniform still polished enough to turn a coffee run into a style moment.
Why We Love Her Style
Mrunal’s wardrobe thrives on versatility moving seamlessly from couture to co-ords to casuals always anchored by a sense of ease. She balances bold statement pieces with clean, wearable shapes, and her signature is an elegance that never feels overstyled.
Whether she’s batting away rumours or owning the red carpet, Mrunal Thakur’s message is clear authenticity never goes out of fashion.
