Bipasha Basu Revives Feud With Mrunal Thakur Remark
Bipasha, who rarely dips her toes in petty drama, seemed to respond without naming names.
By: Shanaz B Syed | 14 Aug 2025 11:42 AM ISTWhen Bollywood gossip takes a spin, it often feels like watching a cricket match where every ball is a surprise delivery. This week�s unexpected bouncer? An old Mrunal Thakur clip resurfaced and pulling Bipasha Basu�s name back into the headlines. Mrunal, the Sita Ramam actress, had once remarked she was �much more beautiful� than Bipasha, even comparing the latter�s build to that of a �muscular man.� The internet didn�t just notice, it exploded.
Bipasha, who rarely dips her toes in petty drama, seemed to respond without naming names. She shared a bold note about women empowering each other, reminding everyone that true strength, both physical and mental, should be celebrated, not mocked. �Always love yourself,� she captioned, like a mic drop without even stepping on stage. Fans immediately decoded the post as an indirect yet pointed reply to Mrunal�s old comments.
As the video of Mrunal�s statement gained traction, Bollywood circles lit up with reactions. Many celebrities and netizens slammed the tone of her words, calling them unnecessary and disrespectful. It wasn�t just a matter of comparison, it was about the larger message it sent in an industry already battling unrealistic beauty standards.
Meanwhile, Mrunal has been batting away a separate set of rumors, this time about her alleged link-up with actor Dhanush. She laughed it off, clarifying that they�re just friends, and that his appearance at a film event was purely professional. With that clarification, the romantic buzz fizzled out. But the Bipasha remark? That one still seems to be spinning like a well-bowled googly, keeping everyone glued to the drama.
