Staff Report: PNN

Romance between Indian cricket and entertainment personalities is nothing new. Recently, a rumor went viral on social media claiming that Bollywood actress Mrunal Thakur and Indian cricketer Shreyas Iyer are in a relationship.

The rumor originated from a Reddit post, which claimed that Shreyas and Mrunal have been enjoying a private and exclusive relationship for several months. According to the post, the relationship is still in its early stages, and both are enjoying each other’s company.

The post also mentioned that to avoid media scrutiny and fame-related pressure, they do not appear publicly together at events and meet only privately or with close friends.

Indian news outlets, including India’s One Cricket and Odisha TV, have reported the story. However, it remains online speculation, as neither Shreyas nor Mrunal has commented, and close acquaintances have not confirmed it.

For context, 30-year-old Shreyas Iyer recently suffered a serious injury during the third ODI against Australia, after which he was hospitalized and admitted to the ICU. Despite this, online speculation about the relationship continues.
