Mrunal Thakur – Zaa News<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Amidst so much uncertainty, any film that manages to set the cash registers ringing is hailed. And when it also gets good reviews, you\u2019re as happy as Mrunal Thakur. Her Telugu romance drama Sita Ramam has been doing well, amid this scenario where calls for boycotting films are commonplace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She exclaims, \u201cFortunately, it is not just box office, but people are loving it too. Romance is an integral part of our lives, and I felt that romantic films were stopped being made. The kind of appreciation, and feedback I have been getting from actors from the south is just incredible. Nagarjuna sir said \u2018you\u2019re beautiful, one just falls in love with your character Sita\u2019, to the point where his wife will scold him! I received compliments from these megastars, I don\u2019t know what to say. Sometimes, even a thank you is less.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With \u2018pan Indian films\u2019 being everyone\u2019s favourite word in the industry today, what does she feel is working in favour of films from south and against Hindi films? Thakur questions in turn, \u201cWhat is a pan Indian film first of all? It\u2019s such a debatable topic. I am really happy to be part of this \u2018Indian\u2019 film, the fact that I have been chosen to play Sita. Today, what works is the content, audiences want to see food work, and not anything monotonous. I have been a part of Hindi and south films both. I totally understand anything you offer to the audience has to be versatile and authentic, and that\u2019s what happens.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of late, there have been calls to not just boycott certain films, but even Bollywood, an entire film industry where millions of people earn their livelihood. Ask the actor whether she feels it\u2019s justified to call for such boycotts, and she replies, \u201cI just feel achha kaam karte raho, log aayenge aur dekhenge. I believe in good work. There\u2019s the quote ki achha kaam karte raho, logon ka kaam hai kehna. I don\u2019t know about others, but I am whatever I am because it my audience. Thank you to them for being honest. People should see the film, if you like it, you like it, if you don\u2019t like it, it\u2019s okay.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
