Speaking about Ranveer, Mrunal didn't hold back. She shared, "My heart is happy. He is my lucky charm. He is the reason why I exist in this industry in 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 that 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."

It's not often that actors openly trace their journey back to a single moment, but for Mrunal, that ad with Ranveer seems to have changed everything.
Mrunal also spoke about Ranveer's performance in 'Dhurandhar: The Revenge', and her reaction says it all. "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."
For her, it wasn't about star power; it was about the character. And that's what made the performance stand out.
