After transforming from an ugly duckling into a confident, attractive woman in Jassi Jaisi Koi Nahi, Mona Singh who is now going to anchor Makeover, a show which gives ordinary people a chance to transform into swans talks to Pramita Bose about her link-up with Karan Kapoor, her culinary skills, friend Gaurav Gera and more.

What did you do with your time off after Jassi.. wound up?
After working non-stop for three years the sabbatical I took from work was bliss. I travelled to New Zealand to visit my sister and her family and had a ball of a time. I was a free bird and had great fun with my nephew. We caught up on the latest movies like Krrish and Superman Returns.

Do you like to party?
Though I'm not a party animal and usually shy away from discos and pubs, I do step out with close friends at times. I like chilling out with Gaurav Gera (Nandu of Jassi..) because we get along like a house
on fire.

What about your much talked about life love?
Do I really have one? People are stalking me with this question and the media has blown this tidbit about Karan and I out of proportion. Karan and me are just good friends and I mean it from the bottom of my heart. These rumours I guess are a little price that celebs pay for the glamour and fame involved of careers.

Are you a shopaholic?
I love going on shopping sprees. I never bother about loosening the purse strings and buy whatever catches my fancy from dolls, shoes, jeans, gaudy saris or itsy bitsy knick-knacks.

Describe your look?
Basically, I prefer the simple, no make-up look with only a touch of kajal and lip gloss. But when I am at a shoot the make-up is loud and lipstick and mascara are a must.

Are you a good cook?
You name it and I can toss up anything under the sun. But I specialise in Punjabi and continental dishes. Rajma, curry, spicy chicken, pasta with white sauce and baked meat are my favourite dishes.

What do you gorge on?
I gorge on sweets like sandesh, rasgullas and mishti doi. When I am digging in to sweets, I gladly give my calorie count a miss.

First we read she went to Pune,then we read she went to London,then we read she went to Kerala,and now we read she went to New Zealand😕

besides,she was there at SS' birthday,she has been in town for the last 1 odd month coz she's "BUSY" with extreme makeover and giving a 545855595858585665874854995 interviews about it(FYI,even Mona gave 55566565656566565696969 interviews about her new show and about her movie🤢...all TV stars are detestable)..So she's been in Mumbai too for most of the time...How I wish Tvc stars stop contradicting themselves again and again and again and again...

)..what channel is her show on..i havent seen any previews; and why is she STILL talking about that movie😕 ...her show's on SONY.....its called EXTREME MAKEOVER..sony's originality is like in the negative..this is a copy of a show from the States.where all the people whose face has been damaged by accidents and stuff get plastic surgeries....So she's been in Mumbai too for most of the time..why is she lying😕.well,sadly,she does not get any soap thanks to her weight(heck,i dont care if she laughs off rumours that she's fat..she IS not in perfect shape,that's the fact)she needs to DIET and work-out for 2 hrs a day; and stop eating all those sweets and all that continental and punjabi food and thus she can globe trot....
