Mrunal Thakur’s Shocking Superiority Complex: Has She Gone Too Far?

Recently, there’s been a buzz in town about Mrunal Thakur. Suddenly, everyone finds her “hot and cute at the same time,” and boys are eager to meet her. But behind this newfound attention, there’s a deeper story—one marked by repeated mistakes and a pattern of putting down other actresses.

Years ago, when Mrunal was just 19, she made headlines for body-shaming Bipasha Basu, mocking her physique and questioning who would date someone “so manly.” She claimed she was “far better than Bipasha,” making fun of Bipasha’s toned body and diet. At the time, Mrunal was just a teenager, and later, she publicly apologized, admitting she didn’t understand different body types and was simply immature.

But should we still judge her for something she did as a confused teenager? Maybe not. However, that’s not where the story ends.

Despite her apology, Mrunal has continued to like and engage with content that shames other actresses. She’s liked reels mocking Aditi Rao Hydari’s face, allegedly due to botox and fillers, and posts ridiculing Deepika Padukone’s outfits—especially around the release of “Gehraiyaan,” where someone joked that Bollywood actresses’ clothes get “tinier” as the release dates approach. Mrunal, herself an actress, seems to support these judgments, even though she wears similar outfits for her own work.

And it doesn’t stop there. She’s also liked posts shaming Deepika for her public discussion of depression after Sushant Singh Rajput’s death, ignoring the sensitivity required around mental health. Even when criticism was justified, Mrunal’s pattern of behavior—repeatedly targeting other actresses—makes it seem intentional, as if she’s trying to prove herself superior.

Recently, Mrunal’s interview went viral again. She spoke about rejecting a major Bollywood film, which later brought instant fame to another actress. Mrunal insisted she didn’t regret her decision, claiming she didn’t want “instant gratification.” But it was clear she was targeting Anushka Sharma, who starred in “Sultan” opposite Salman Khan—a role originally offered to Mrunal. While Mrunal says she’s proud to still be working, the reality is that Anushka was already a star with hits like “Band Baaja Baaraat,” “Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi,” and “PK.” Anushka chose to step back from acting to focus on her family, not because she couldn’t find work.

Mrunal’s statements reveal deep insecurity and jealousy. She tries to lift herself up by putting others down, seeking validation through comparison instead of her own achievements. What seemed like a one-time mistake with Bipasha now looks like a consistent pattern in her personality.

So, what do you think about Mrunal Thakur’s behavior? Is she just insecure, or is this her way of dealing with the pressures of the industry? Let me know in the comments below. If you liked this story, please give it a thumbs up and subscribe to the channel.
