Mona Singh has recently opened up about her unconventional debut with Jassi Jaissi Koi Nahin. The actress portrayed the role of Jasmeet Walia, who faced demeaning behaviour from her colleagues due to her appearance. While speaking to Filmfare, the actress quipped about the challenges she faced while filming the popular serial and how she showed up to work every day while dressing up as Jassi.
When asked about the difficulties she had to undergo while filming Jassi, the actress said, “It wasn’t difficult at all. I was passionate and driven towards it because that is the only thing that I wanted to do.” Calling herself “fortunate,” Mona noted that starting in the industry with a show like Jassi Jaissi Koi Nahin was a dream-come-true for her. “My only plan in life was to act and showcase my talent. I wanted to get the opportunities that I am getting now. But to start with a show like Jassi Jaissi Koi Nahin was like a dream come true. I was never tired. Of course, there were days when it used to get a little taxing because the lead of a show is there in every scene. Otherwise, I was charged up most of the time,” she added.
Speaking about the grueling audition process, Mona also said, “I was a newcomer myself and auditioning for a year and a half before I got Jassi. I was completely shocked and taken aback when I got the role. The producers told me that they would try to give me one day off a week. They said it would be very tough.”
