MUMBAI: Mrunal Thakur never misses an opportunity to entertain her fans with her quirky videos. On Saturday, the actress took to her Instagram to share a goofy video, calling herself ‘Pookie Thakur.’

In the second part, she is seen jumping off a table during her makeup session. Though she doesn’t fall, she lands awkwardly and tries to cover it up with a nervous yet adorable smile.

Along with the video, Mrunal added a hilarious caption that read, “I’m not clumsy; I’m just testing gravity! REGULARLY, you know. Love, Pookie Thakur.”

Soon after she dropped the video, fans chimed in the comments section. One user wrote, “This is just sooo cute,” while another added, “You are just too funny, Mrunal”.

Meanwhile, on the work front, Mrunal Thakur will next be seen in ‘Dacoit’, which also stars Adivi Sesh. The film was initially announced with Shruti Haasan as the lead actress. In a statement, Mrunal revealed that her role in Dacoit allows her to explore new aspects of her acting career.

“The story of Dacoit is true in its essence, a great mix of rustic storytelling elevated by the stylized vision of both Adivi Sesh and Shaneil Deo. The character I’m set to portray will allow me to explore shades of an on-screen role that I haven’t delved into before as an actor. This combination of genre and script is what makes Dacoit truly a treat for audiences. I can’t wait to immerse myself in the world envisioned by Shaneil,” she said.

The film, produced by Supriya Yarlagadda and co-produced by Suniel Narang, is being shot simultaneously in Hindi and Telugu. Shaneil Deo is directing the project. (ANI)
