Well I admire Mona a lot.. actually more than admire, I respect her a lot because she is the only actress in the history of Bollywood/Tellywood who chose to make her bebut in an ugly duckling avatar and kept her real identity a secret for 2 years just for the show.. Everytime journalists would ask her "Kya aap Mona Singh ho?" she would say "No, I don't even know who she is!" Now that to me is really a huge sacrifice, to make urself non existant.. In fact, she received her 1st ever award under the name of her character in JJKN, n not her real name.. Main jitni bhi tareef karoon uski wo kam hi hoga.. Because honestly, Mona jaisi koi nahin.. Where all d actresses nowadays want to look like made up Barbie dolls.. she tries to keep Preet simple and fresh.. Mian 6th standard me padhti thi jab JJKN start hua tha, and issi liye maine bohot young age me seekh liya tha, looks fade away, it is d heart that matters... agar sabhi actors Hrithik ya Brad pitt jaise hote, to kya Irrfan Khan ya Nawazuddin Siddiqui ke koi fans nahi hote? aisa to nahi hai na... but people are of d notion that an on-screen couple must look perfect "looks wise" together... Iqbal's fans on Facebook keep making derogatory comments about Mona, and that is so hurtful! Dil to karta hai sab ko doon ek ek... but then I know that one must not get into a fight with stupid people 😡 so jisko Mona ke looks ke bare mein jo bolna hai bole... sach to yahi hai ke wo jaisi bhi hai, mujhe bohot pyaari hai, uske paas dher saare accolades hain n most importantly, log v=chahe jo bhi kahe, at the end of d day, reality yahi hai ke Iqu is romancing her on screen at present. End of story.
