Mona Singh Reveals Why She Rejected Many Roles

In an exclusive interview with Zoom, Mona Singh got candid about rejecting multiple roles for the sake of authenticity rather than visibility. She shared, “I think Jassi changed that for me, since then I've been the rule breaker. I've done just the opposite. I've always managed to get the roles that I wanted to do and to reach that path I've refused quite a lot. I said no to many shows that I didn't want to be a part of just to be seen. I never really had that feeling, I never really operated like that to be seen hence I need to do this movie, I've patiently waited it out. This industry is very unpredictable, but it taught me a lot of patience. I think it's been worth the wait. I waited it out and now I'm getting the roles I wanted to do.”
