Although it may have been said casually back then, the remark has not gone down well with today’s audience. Many social media users accused her of body shaming and disrespecting another actress. Some felt it was wrong to pull down another woman to make a point.
The video spread rapidly online, and the comments section was filled with criticism.
Mrunal’s Reaction After The Trolls
Rather than making a plain statement or apology, Mrunal had her reply. She posted new photo on Instagram wearing a stylish black outfit and captioned it “Stop staring!” This was interpreted by many as her implicit way of responding to the controversy.

The fans reacted mixed to her posting. Some of the followers praised her confidence and applauded her for not letting trolls affect her. Others, however, continued to bring up the Bipasha comment in the comments section, saying things like “Far better than Bipasha? Who even knows you?”.
Another user commented, “In 2007 Bipasha listed sexiest Asian women in the world and also most desirable women in india in her prime time..what is your achievements ?? Im Just shocked a woman talking like this in public about a woman.”
So far, Mrunal has not spoken openly about the matter. She seems to be focusing on her work and ignoring the negativity.
