Mona Singh wants the show to end

Reena Thapar Kapoor

I am bored, and tired of playing Jassi," says Mona Singh. Like everyone else, she too has been hearing rumours about Jassi Jaisi Koi Nahin going off air, and she can't wait for the day it actually does. "Every time I hear that Jassi... is going off air, I make my plans to go on a long vacation, only to learn that it was just a rumour. That is disheartening," she laughs. "After all, how many new developments can you show in a soap that has been on air for almost three years?"

Singh has had problems with the show for a while now, often expressing disagreement over certain scenes and dialogue? "I've been unhappy about various things on the show," she says. "For instance, I've had issues with my name changing three times on the show – from Jasmeet Walia to Jessica Bedi to Neha Shastri. At those times I did voice my opinion and tell the concerned people about my dissatisfaction with the way things were going. Obviously, they had their reasons for changing names, and we had to go ahead with it. Sometimes, scenes and dialogue were altered when I asked for changes, sometimes they weren't."

When launched as a plain Jane, Mona Singh was, perhaps, the only female actor who deserved to be called a 'star' in the truest sense, in the televison industry. But the tide turned when the bespectacled Jasmeet Walia metamorphosed in the glamorous Jassi. Apparently, the show that has lost its original track almost a year ago is, now, only dragging along.

"Finally the show has to end one day and I'd rather it ends with grace." The actress says that there has been no official confirmation on the date when it's likely to go off air.

The only thing that she's sure of is that, when Jassi... does wind up, she is going to sleep for 48 hours at a stretch.

Meanwhile, Singh is already in the process of grooming herself for her silver screen debut. "I've lost a lot of weight already," she says. "So much so that people fail to recognise me nowadays."

She has signed a contract with Bobby Pushkarna the producer of Page 3. "The film will go on the floors around June 2006," she says. "I'll plan my life anew after my contract with Sony expires in May."
