From Sara Khan to Mrunal Thakur, Manit Joura comes a long way in the love land…

It’s all ‘Khamosh’ on the sets of Mujhse Kuchh Kehti..Yeh Khamoshiyaan, with the show bidding adieu last week. However, there’s a long journey ahead for its lead actors Manit Joura and Mrunal Thakur who are apparently ‘fond of each other’ and simply miss their togetherness with the show wrapping up!!

Yes, you heard it right!! Our reliable source from the sets of Khamoshiyaan tells us that both Manit and Mrunal have one thing in common, that is they miss the ‘good old days’ when they used to spend all their time together. In fact, Manit who stays in Mira Road used to drop Mrunal at her place in Lokhandwala daily after the shoot wrap-up. Usually Mrunal and Manit used to adjust their schedules so that they come together and leave the set together. Another interesting fact that we got to know is that both Mrunal and Manit happen to be from the same acting school and that Mrunal found a ‘teacher’ in Manit when she found the going tough on the sets of Khamoshiyaan.

So what’s cooking, we decided to ask the actors themselves.

When contacted, Mrunal laughed off the question and said, “Well, we both are very good friends. I am a newcomer and Manit being from the same acting school that I was in, helps me a lot. Since I used to travel all alone at the wee hours of the night, he used to drop me home. He is a very nice guy and I am fond of him. But there’s nothing more to it.”

Manit Joura also echoed the same sentiment saying, “I am fond of her and she is fond of me. In fact, we do miss shooting together. But I don’t believe in something called ‘dating’. If I find my girl, I will not go through the dating period, and will directly get married. Also, I don’t think I will have a wife who is an actress.”

Ask Manit about him going all the way to Lokhandwala to drop Mrunal after a tiring day, when he was staying in Mira Road, and the actor immediately defended himself stating, “Well, that’s a man’s courtesy for a girl. Even if it was anyone else in Mrunal’s place, I would have done it. The fact is that we used to wrap up shoot at wee hours of the night. And while I go home in a car, Mrunal would usually catch an auto to go home. And this is when I made it a point to drop her.”

For the uninitiated, Manit was reported to be quite intimate with Sara Khan during the making of Ram Milayi Jodi too. However, the difference is that while Manit never acknowledged Sara in his life, he has gone ahead and acknowledged Mrunal. So we guess this time it is for ‘keeps’..

And yes, we do like the way you both are ‘fond’ of each other Mrunal and Manit.
