Actress Mrunal Thakur shared insights into why she initially faced challenges acting in Telugu films.
During an interview with Galatta Plus, the 31-year-old actress disclosed the challenges she encountered while working in Telugu cinema and admitted that there was a point when she considered leaving the industry.
The Pippa actress expressed that her lack of proficiency in Telugu initially made her feel limited, especially since Hindi and Marathi were her preferred languages.
Mrunal also revealed that she started dubbing her lines in Telugu to better understand the language nuances but faced challenges in syncing her lip movements with the dialogue.
She said, “I didn’t want to be in a space where I felt handicapped because I didn’t know the language. It made me restless, and I kid you not, I had moments when I wanted to give up. I have literally cried but every drop of tear has brought praise my way."
Moreover, Mrunal also elaborated that after her debut in the 2022 film Sita Ramam, she confided in Dulquer Salmaan, expressing her reluctance to continue working in the language.
She shared, “I remember we were shooting in Kashmit and I told him Sita Ramam will be my first and last Telugu film. I won’t do any more films in Telugu, I said. He just looked at me and said, we’ll see."
"I think today, one of the reasons I am considering branching out into Tamil or Kannada also is because he gave me the confidence to," she added.
On the work front, Mrunal Thakur will next be seen alongside Vijay Deverakonda in the film, Family Star, which is set to release on April 5, 2024.
