The video showed a young Mrunal calling Bipasha 'manly with muscles' and stating she was far better than her. After facing massive backlash, Mrunal issued an apology over the 'silly' remarks she made as a 19-year-old. '19-year-old me as a teenager said many silly things. I didn't always understand the weight of my voice or how much words, even in jest, could hurt. But it did and for that I am deeply sorry. My intent was never to body-shame anyone. It was playful banter in an interview that went too far. But I understand how it came across, and I truly wish I had chosen my words differently," she wrote.

Following the release of her recent film 'The Bhootnii', actress Mouni Roy has joined the cast of David Dhawan's upcoming comic caper titled 'Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai' (HJTIHH). The film stars Varun Dhawan, Mrunal Thakur and others, and the team is currently shooting for the film in Glasgow, Scotland for a month-long schedule. It's not all work and filming for the cast, though! The actors are also enjoying some fun, light-hearted moments on set. Varun Dhawan recently shared a behind-the-scenes video, giving a glimpse of how Mrunal and Mouni have been playfully 'bullying' him. The hilarious video shared by Varun Dhawan on Instagram, shows Mrunal Thakur playfully tying the laces of both his shoes together, while Mouni Roy sits beside her, laughing and observing. Puzzled by this, Varun asks Mrunal why she is doing this. As he tries to walk, he stumbles due to the tied laces. Mouni and Mrunal laugh, but also help him into a chair. Producer Ramesh Taurani tells Varun Dhawan not to go along with such antics. Mouni then points at Mrunal and says, 'She did it!" It looks like the team of 'Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai' was shooting for a hospital scene, and the video was captured on the sets of the film.
