The film ‘Sita Ramam‘ was not only a major hit in Telugu but also enjoyed widespread success in multiple languages. Dulquer Salmaan and Mrunal Thakur, the lead pair, received acclaim for their effective partnership. In their roles as Ram and Sita, they enthralled audiences with their poignant love story, creating enchanting on-screen chemistry. Mrunal Thakur, especially in her traditional attire, captivated the Telugu audience. Recent reports suggest that this duo is poised to collaborate again. The upcoming project, said to be another love story, is reportedly being directed by Ravi, a protégé of director Parasuram, and produced under the banner of Dil Raju.
Hit Pair Repeat
Since the triumph of ‘Sita Ramam’, both Dulquer Salmaan and Mrunal Thakur have struggled to replicate that success. Dulquer’s performance in the web series ‘King of Kotha‘ fell short of expectations. Meanwhile, Mrunal Thakur followed up ‘Sita Ramam’ with roles in ‘Hi Nanna’ and ‘Family Star’. While ‘Hi Nanna’ performed reasonably at the box office, ‘Family Star‘ did not meet expectations and received mixed reviews. Despite Mrunal’s extensive efforts in promoting these films, including viral social media reels with Vijay Deverakonda, the outcomes have been underwhelming. This series of less successful releases has somewhat dimmed her career prospects in Telugu cinema, where she faces increasing competition from emerging actresses.

Will Mrunal Thakur’s Charm Continue?
Mrunal Thakur has been acting in Bollywood for over a decade and starred alongside Hrithik Roshan in ‘Super 30’, but she has yet to establish a strong foothold in Bollywood. However, her foray into Tollywood with just one film brought her immense success and moved her to tears with the affection she received from Telugu audiences. ‘Sita Ramam’ set her on a prestigious path in Tollywood, earning her ₹80 lakhs for the role and boosting her fee to ₹1.5 crore for subsequent films. Despite the underperformance of ‘Family Star’, she continues to receive opportunities in Telugu cinema. Her upcoming project with Dulquer Salmaan, directed by Ravi, could be a pivotal moment in her career.

Village Backdrop Story
The on-screen chemistry between Dulquer Salmaan and Mrunal Thakur has captivated Telugu audiences, leading Tollywood directors and producers to consider reuniting them for another film. Ravi, who has previously assisted director Parasuram, is set to direct a new and unique love story featuring Dulquer. This upcoming film is said to be set in a village, and Ravi has already completed the script. Producer Dil Raju has approved the project and will produce it under his banner, Venkateswara Creations.
Music Director GV Prakash, renowned for his contributions to Tamil cinema, has been chosen to score the music for this new film. Excited about the project, he looks forward to delivering another hit soundtrack, following his successful work on the Telugu film ‘Sir’. The filming is slated to start after Dulquer and Mrunal wrap up their ongoing projects. While official announcements are pending, anticipation is already building around the return of this popular duo.
