Pinkvilla :
In an exclusive conversation with Pinkvilla, Mrunal Thakur talked about how Love Sonia, which was released in 2018, was not

Mrunal Thakur is basking in the success of Sita Ramam, which marked her debut in the Telugu industry. The film also starred Dulquer Salmaan in the lead

During one of the conversations, Mrunal was asked how it feels to move on when a film gets appreciated by people who’ve watched it but the numbers don’t follow. To which, the actress said, “Love Sonia was my first film. I was really
emotionally attached to that film and at that point in time, when the film had been released, nobody had seen it in India at least. When we started screening the movie in Melbourne or America or Uzbekistan and parts of Asia, the film got so much appreciation….”
