Mrunal Thakur, who is playing the female lead in the Hindi remake of Jersey, had an accidental but absolutely endearing meeting with the leading man of the original.

Telugu superstar Nani met Mrunal during her shoot in Hyderabad, where she is shooting for her next film with Dulquer Salmaan.

Says Mrunal, “Nani was so humble and such an absolute sweetheart. He even shared with me his excitement to watch the remake and I want to know what he thinks of the remake. When I watched the original film, it was Shraddha and his performance that made me want to work in this film. So, I’m glad I got to meet him in person.”

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
