Birthday Feature – 5 times Mrunal Thakur aced the quintessential romantic dream actress on screen

Mumbai, Aug 01: Mrunal Thakur is one such actor, whose spectacular growth as an actor has not just been observed by people but also is equally celebrated by her fans. From television soap operas to critically acclaimed movies to receiving multiple international awards, Mrunal is undoubtedly one of the shining stars. As she celebrates her birthday today, here are her five top performances.

Sita Ramam:

In the time of fast-paced love affairs, Mrunal brought back the quintessential old school romance in the movie. The movie, as well as Mrunal, received so much love, making her one of the sought after actresses in the South Indian film industries. She was applauded by the critics for her performance.

Lust Stories 2:

Always seen in a girls next door image, Mrunal in Lust Stories 2 was completely different from what we had seen earlier. Her camaraderie with her co-actors Neena Gupta and Angad Bedi was a pleasant surprise for the cinephiles. She was part of R Balki’s segment in the series. With so many senior actors in the anthology, Mrunal’s performance was acclaimed.

Jersey:
It was a treat to watch Mrunal Thakur as Vidya. She was absolutely convincing as a young lover, and the wife, who wants her husband Shahid Kapoor to take up house responsibility. Although there is a limited screen time, she makes use of every frame that she is given. Mrunal carried herself really well in every age group that she played in the film.

Toofan:
Mrunal was absolutely breathtaking as Dr. Ananya Prabhu, who is paired opposite Farhan Akhtar in the movie. Her character kept pulling everything together while things were falling apart and Mrunal fit into that part perfectly well. The film was directed by Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra. Mrunal got an opportunity to work with such a stalwart from the industry so early in her career.

Super 30:
One of the underrated performances of Mrunal Thakur, which is hardly mentioned but Mrunal as Supriya won many hearts with her limited screen presence. She was a typical girl next door and was quite relatable too. Her second film in the industry but her acting and classical dance was quite loved in this movie.
