Actress Mrunal Thakur, 34, has shut down speculation that she is dating cricketer Yashasvi Jaiswal, 24, after a video of them at a Mumbai cafe went viral. In an Instagram comment on a fan page, Thakur wrote: "Bro relax… show me where are we together? How can educated people take these rumours to be true?" She urged social media users to focus on real issues instead of spreading baseless gossip. Thakur was previously linked to actor Dhanush, a claim she consistently denied. No confirmation of a romantic link with Jaiswal exists. On the work front, Thakur will next appear in the courtroom drama 'Pooja Meri Jaan' alongside Huma Qureshi.
