After an overwhelming response she generated for her television debut, Mona Singh was looking forward to making a foray into films. And opportunity knocked at the right time when the producer of Page 3, Bobby Pushkarna decided to launch her at a time when her show Jassi Jaisi Koi Nahin, was coming to an end.
In her desire to make this nothing short of the best, she had started working out to get back into shape. But, the latest buzz doing the rounds is that the film has been shelved.
When contacted, Mona said, "I'm clueless about the happenings of the film.
For the past few months there have been no calls from the producer and even his office hasn't bothered to keep me informed about recent developments. I get the impression that the film will never take off."
Although disheartened, she is not ready to give up. "I'm not going to give up so easily. If it was just films that I wanted to do, I wouldn't have started my career with television. I'm still open to the idea of doing films. But I'll never do any B-grade films. The script has to have meat to it. I refuse to take up roles that portray me as a dumb bimbo,"she says.
Not wasting any time in moving on, Mona has started accepting work on television again and has two shows on hand.
When contacted for his version, Pushkarna, currently in London, admitted to all not being well with the film. "There are certain issues that need to be sorted out. I made a big mistake by announcing Mona as the lead actress in my film. The script has undergone some changes and that's why it got delayed by a few months. My film is on and will shortly go on floors." So does it mean that Mona won't be a part of it? "Why don't you check with her," said Pushkarna.
