Dhanush & Mrunal Dating Rumors Ignite BGM Plagiarism Controversy
Dhanush-Mrunal Dating Rumors Spark BGM Plagiarism Row

Fresh dating rumors involving actors Dhanush and Mrunal Thakur have taken an unexpected turn, shifting focus from their relationship status to allegations of musical plagiarism in Mrunal's upcoming film.

Instagram Exchange Fuels Speculation

The controversy began when Mrunal Thakur shared the announcement teaser of her new romantic film 'Do Deewane Seher Mein', where she stars opposite Siddhant Chaturvedi. The teaser, featuring theme music composed by Anurag Saikia, immediately caught the attention of her followers.

Soon after the post went live, Dhanush left a supportive comment stating "Looks and sounds good," to which Mrunal responded with heart and sunflower emojis. This brief but affectionate exchange immediately set social media abuzz, with fans revisiting long-standing rumors about their off-screen relationship.

BGM Similarity Sparks Online Outrage

However, the attention quickly shifted from the dating rumors to the background music featured in the teaser. Sharp-eared viewers noticed something familiar about the musical score.

Many fans observed that the BGM bore a striking resemblance to the emotional background score from Dhanush's 2012 Tamil blockbuster '3', composed by music maestro Anirudh Ravichander. Social media platforms became flooded with comparisons between the two soundtracks.

One passionate fan commented, "File a copyright claim on this. Just because she's your GF doesn't mean they can copy the BGM of your movie." Another user pointed out the similarity more specifically, writing, "Sounds like Dhanush's 3 movie song 'Kannazhaga'."

Silence from Film Team Adds to Mystery

Despite the growing controversy and numerous allegations circulating online, the makers of 'Do Deewane Seher Mein' have maintained complete silence. Neither the production team nor composer Anurag Saikia has addressed whether the musical similarity was intentional or purely coincidental.

Both Dhanush and Mrunal have also chosen to remain silent on the matter, avoiding any comments about either the BGM controversy or the revived dating rumors. Their silence has only added more fuel to the ongoing speculation among fans and media outlets.

This isn't the first time the two actors have been linked romantically. Back in August 2025, rumors about their relationship were widespread across entertainment circles. During an interview with Only Kollywood, Mrunal had directly addressed the speculation, stating clearly that "Dhanush is just a good friend to me." She admitted being aware of the rumors and even found them "funny" when she first encountered them. Dhanush, however, has never publicly commented on their relationship status.

The dual controversy continues to generate significant online discussion, with fans divided between discussing the potential romance and debating the alleged musical plagiarism. As the silence from all parties continues, the speculation shows no signs of slowing down.
