Mrunal eyeing commercial and performance oriented roles. Despite the box office success of her recent films 'Sita Ramam' and 'Hi Nanna,' Bollywood star Mrunal Thakur has been selective about signing Telugu projects. According to a producer, she is receiving offers but is focused on securing author-backed roles that showcase her acting prowess, which is why it is taking some time for her to commit to new projects.
While Mrunal has the potential to excel in glamorous roles, her preference for substance-driven characters has limited her Telugu film choices. Despite this, she has garnered respect for her dignified and subtle performances in movies like 'Sita Ramam' and 'Hi Nanna,' where she shared the screen with talented actors like Dulquer and Nani, respectively. Her ability to portray tragic love stories convincingly has earned her recognition, and she aims to maintain this image.
In Bollywood, Mrunal has demonstrated her versatility in glamorous roles, effortlessly carrying off ultra-glamorous outfits, as seen on her social media platforms. However, to ascend to the top echelons of Telugu cinema, she may need to explore more glamorous roles, as actresses like Samantha, Kajal, Tamannaah, and Shruti Haasan have successfully done in the past.
According to the source, striking a balance between glamour and performance is crucial for an actress, and Mrunal may need to consider taking on more glamorous roles to enhance her presence in Telugu cinema.
