'He's my lucky charm': Mrunal Thakur praises Ranveer Singh, says 'he's the reason I exist in this industry'

Mrunal Thakur had also heaped praise on Ranveer Singh's performance in Dhurandhar. She said that his acting was not just surface level but also had many layers to it.

Mrunal Thakur is all praise for Dhurandhar star Ranveer Singh.

The Sita Ramam actor has credited Singh as her lucky charm and calls him the reason why she still exists in the industry.

In an appearance on Ranveer Allahbadia's podcast, Thakur revealed that she had done a commercial with Singh, which led to better and bigger projects coming her way.

"He is my lucky charm. He is the reason why I exist in this industry in the first place. I did a commercial with him for a hair brand as a model, and when that commercial hit the screens... it was then that filmmakers started noticing me. That is how I give my credit to him. This man has really helped me. Such a positive person—he deserves all the success," Thakur said.

Praising Ranveer's performance in Aditya Dhar's Dhurandhar, Thakur said, "The acting was not surface level. It had depth and layers. I didn't watch it as Ranveer Singh. I only saw it as Hamza... it was more of a character than a hero. I just feel incredibly proud of Ranveer because he is so hardworking. I pray and wish that whatever he does should be a blockbuster! He can do everything."

Thakur was last seen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Do Deewane Seher Mein alongside Siddhant Chaturvedi.

Known for her role in Kumkum Bhagya, Thakur made her debut in the film industry with Love Sonia. She then continued to work in films such as Batla House, Jersey, Gumraah, Toofan and Son of Sardaar 2.

She will next be seen in Dacoit: A Love Story which is set to release on April 10.
