In the fast-paced world of cinema, actors often find themselves in a cycle of back-to-back releases, but for Mrunal Thakur, the past year has been unexpectedly quiet. Her last Telugu film, The Family Star, which hit theaters in April 2023, failed to make an impact at the box office. Since then, she hasn’t had a single Telugu release, sparking speculation about her career trajectory.

Addressing her absence at a recent event, Mrunal opened up about how Telugu cinema has changed her life. “Drastically! The number of offers I’ve been getting is insane. But Telugu audiences often tell me they love my choices, so I want to take one step at a time. I’m not someone who signs multiple films without being fully invested. I’m just going with the flow—if something great has to happen, it will. I want to do roles that are iconic and stay with the audience for a long time.”*

Now, all eyes are on Dacoit: A Love Story, the film that could mark her big comeback. Mrunal stepped in to replace Shruti Haasan in the role of Juliet, and she’s hopeful this project will bring her back into the Telugu cinema spotlight. With a strong storyline and a promising cast, this film might just be the turning point she needs.
