Mrunal Thakur has heaped praise on Ranveer Singh, calling him her “lucky charm” while celebrating the massive box office success of his latest release, Dhurandhar The Revenge, which has reportedly crossed the Rs 1000 crore mark globally.In a conversation with Ranveer Allahbadia, Mrunal opened up about her admiration for Ranveer and how he played a pivotal role in her journey.
‘He is the reason I exist in this industry’
“My heart is happy. He is my lucky charm. He is the reason why I exist in this industry at the first place. I did a commercial with him for a hair brand as a model, and when that commercial hit the screens… it was then when filmmakers started noticing me and that is how… I give my credit to him and this man has really helped me. Such a positive person and he deserves all the success.”
‘I didn’t see Ranveer Singh, I saw Hamza’
Praising his performance in the film, she added, “The acting was not surface level. It had depth and layers. I didn’t watch it as Ranveer Singh. I only saw it as Hamza… it was more of a character than a hero. I just feel incredibly proud of Ranveer because he is so hardworking. I pray and wish that whatever he does should be a blockbuster! He can do everything.”
