A source close to the actor clarified that the marriage rumours were baseless and untrue, putting an end to the speculation. Speculation about Dhanush and Mrunal Thakur’s alleged relationship began after the ‘Son of Sardaar 2’ event in August 2025. According to reports, when Dhanush arrived at the film’s premiere, Mrunal immediately rushed to greet him, which caught the attention of onlookers.

A source had earlier revealed that Dhanush and Mrunal are dating, but the two prefer to keep their relationship away from the public eye for now. Neither actor has officially confirmed or denied the relationship. Dhanush was previously married to Aishwarya Rajinikanth, the daughter of superstar Rajinikanth. The couple tied the knot in 2004 and share two sons, Linga and Yatra.
