7 years ago, life surprised me with the most unexpected gift Love Sonia. I was just a small-town girl, with big dreams in her heart, and somehow out of thousands, Sonia chose me. That film wasn’t just my debut… it was my first step into a world where cinema could change lives. I still remember the nervous excitement of being on set, surrounded by legends Demi Moore, Freida Pinto, Richa Chadha, Manoj Bajpayee, Rajkummar Rao, Riya Sisodiya, Saie Tamhankar, Mark Duplass… each one teaching me something new every single day. I felt like the tiniest fish in a vast ocean, but their kindness made me feel like I belonged. And then there was Tabrez Noorani our captain, our fearless guide. He once told me, “No matter what happens commercially, we must be proud of the lives this film saves.” Those words are etched in my heart forever. A huge thank you also to David Womark, and to Ruchira Gupta and the real superheroes fighting every day against trafficking they are the true inspiration. A big thank you to Virginia Holmes and Resul Pookutty for being such a strong pillar of support. Forever grateful. And to A.R. Rahman sir your music didn’t just elevate the film, it gave Sonia’s journey a soul. Thank you so much. The most beautiful part is that Love Sonia went beyond the screen. It sparked change, inspired NGOs, saved lives. Even today, people still reach out after watching it, and my heart fills with gratitude. I owe everything to this film. Sonia gave me courage, gave me a voice, gave me a family in cinema. Thank you to everyone who made this journey possible. Here’s to carrying Sonia in my soul, and to many more stories that heal, inspire, and make a difference. ♥️

Mrunal (@mrunalthakur) has been navigating the Hindi and South Indian film industries for a while now. From starring in the unforgettable ‘Sita Ramam’ to appearing in a scene-stealing cameo in the biggest pan-Indian film ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ and joining the all-cast of ‘Son of Sardaar 2’, she’s enjoying the best of both worlds. The actress doesn’t see the lines that most assume exist between film industries. “It’s just the language difference. The shooting process is a little different. I’m just happy to be able to shoot in both regions and cater to a larger audience. Exploring South Indian movies was never on the plate for me. It’s something that I never decided that I would do, but it’s been a blessing, and I’m really happy to be exploring the best of both worlds,” says our cover star.
