Fresh off her recently completed film Jersey, Mrunal Thakur finds herself quizzed about why almost all her films are opposite stars. Finding herself in a conflicted situation, the actor reasons aloud, "When I was younger and new to the industry, I was told to do more films with superstars. Now I am being accused of that very thing. I don't function as per the star system of the industry. I have always gone purely by the script. I have auditioned and landed my parts fair and square."

Thakur elaborates that on one hand, she is featuring opposite Shahid Kapoor and Farhan Akhtar in Jersey and Toofan respectively, and on the other hand she will be starring with Abhimanyu Dassani in Aankh Micholi and Ishaan Khatter and Priyanshu Painyuli in Pippa.
