  • Rumours link Dhanush to Mrunal Thakur, but no official statement has been made

Actor Dhanush was recently spotted offering prayers at the Tirumala Tirupati temple along with his sons, Linga and Yatra. The visit comes at a time when the National Award-winning actor is surrounded by intense speculation about his personal life, especially rumours linking him to actor Mrunal Thakur. Visuals from the early morning darshan quickly went viral on social media, drawing massive attention from fans and followers.

Dhanush and his sons were seen dressed in traditional attire, wearing silk dhotis and angavastrams as they sought blessings at the Lord Venkateswara Swamy temple. The actor opted for a low-key and spiritual visit, but the presence of fans soon turned the moment into a frenzy. Several devotees gathered around the temple premises hoping to catch a glimpse of the star and take photographs.

Despite the crowd, Dhanush remained composed and visibly attentive to his children’s safety. His manager, Sreyas, accompanied them and was seen holding the hands of Linga and Yatra, ensuring they were shielded from the rush of people. Many fans praised the actor online for maintaining calm and prioritising his children during the visit.

The temple appearance has further fuelled ongoing rumours about Dhanush’s alleged relationship with Mrunal Thakur. Over the past few weeks, multiple reports have claimed that the two actors are romantically involved and may even be planning to tie the knot on February 14. However, neither Dhanush nor Mrunal has addressed or confirmed these claims, and no official statement has been released so far. Both actors have continued to remain silent, choosing to focus on their professional commitments instead.

On the work front, Dhanush was last seen in Aanand L Rai’s Tere Ishk Mein, which received mixed reviews during its theatrical run but found renewed attention after its OTT release. He is currently gearing up for Kara, directed by Vignesh Raja. The teaser of the film has generated strong buzz and raised expectations among audiences. Set in the 1990s, Kara follows the journey of a man named Karasaami and promises a gripping thriller filled with mystery and action. The film is produced by Vels Film International Limited, with Dr Ishari K Ganesh as producer and Kushmitha Ganesh as co-producer.

Apart from Kara, Dhanush is also working on D55, directed by Rajkumar Periasamy. The project recently saw a major change, with Dhanush’s Wunderbar Films and RTake Studios taking over production from Gopuram Cinemas, adding further anticipation around the film.
