Actress Mrunal Thakur has shut down speculation that she is dating cricketer Yashasvi Jaiswal. The rumours began after the two were seen leaving the same cafe in Bandra, Mumbai. In a sharp comment on Instagram, Mrunal asked, 'Where were we together? You are well-educated, yet you trust such gossip?' She also urged people to focus on real issues instead of fake news. The age gap, Yashasvi is 24 and Mrunal is 33, had fuelled online chatter. This is not the first time Mrunal has faced dating rumours; earlier this year she dismissed reports linking her to actor Dhanush. Yashasvi, a rising star for Rajasthan Royals in the IPL, made his India debut in 2023.
