Dhanush Will Never Remarry for the Sake of His Sons; Dating Rumors with Mrunal Thakur Denied

Rumors about South superstar Dhanush dating actress Mrunal Thakur and news of a possible wedding made headlines last week. However, sources close to the actor have clarified that he has no plans to remarry, a decision directly linked to the upbringing of his two sons.

Dating and Wedding Rumors Debunked
Recently, there were reports suggesting that Dhanush and Mrunal Thakur were dating, with some even claiming that the couple would tie the knot on Valentine’s Day next month. Subsequent reports, however, refuted these claims. Neither Dhanush nor Mrunal’s team has issued an official statement, which fueled speculation on social media. Close sources now confirm that the dating reports are false, and marriage is not on the cards.

Dhanush announced his separation from his wife Aishwarya Rajinikanth in November 2024. He is the father of two sons, Yatra Raja and Linga Raja. The dating rumors gained traction when the actors were spotted together at a private event and at the premiere of Dhanush’s film Tere Ishq Mein, where their warm interaction sparked speculation.

Mrunal Focused on Career
When media reports claimed that Dhanush and Mrunal were set to marry on 14 February 2026, sources close to the actress clarified that the news was false. Mrunal is currently focused on her career, with multiple film releases lined up in the coming months. Her projects include Do Deewane Sheher Mein, whose teaser was released on Monday, ahead of its 20 February release, and a Telugu film scheduled for March.

Dhanush Prioritizes His Sons
Sources quoted by Money Control reveal that Dhanush and Mrunal Thakur are just good friends, and the actor has no plans to remarry. “Dhanush is a father to two sons and is fully committed to his parental responsibilities. He wants to provide a stable and loving environment for Yatra and Linga. He does not intend to introduce a stepmother into their lives and continues to co-parent peacefully with his ex-wife Aishwarya,” the source said.

Dhanush’s decision emphasizes that he does not want any personal choices to negatively impact his children’s lives, keeping their well-being as his top priority.
