ex: What has been that anchor point in your life?
Mrunal Thakur: I think it was the release of 'Love, Sonia', when the film was screening at the film festivals, and people were appreciating it. It was my first film, and it was screened at the London Indian Film Festival. It was because of 'Love, Sonia' that I got to travel the world and experience what it feels like to take a trip to Los Angeles. I was lucky enough to attend the film screening at the United Nations, and it was lovely to meet people from various countries. Basically, that movie changed everything for me and kind of helped me to have a career in the South Indian Film Industry. It's because of 'Love, Sonia' that I met Nag Ashwin, the director of 'Mahanati', who saw the film at the screening and recommended my name for Sita Ramam.
ex: When did you realise your potential interest in being an actor?
Mrunal: I discovered that I wanted to be an actor when I was prepping for a medical entrance exam. I still did that and almost got into BDS. I was supposed to be a dentist, and then I was like, no, something's not right, so I opted for a Bachelor of Mass Media, and that's when I realised that acting is something I want to explore.
