I was jobless and bored:Mona

By Subhash K Jha

For those who've been missing Jassi, a k.a Mona Kapoor, and are happy to have her back on the tube in a dance show, there's more to follow.

Mona has been busy with a reality show. "Extreme Makeover is a very emotional challenge for me. I'm hosting this show which does corrective surgery on disfigured persons.

From Jassi to Jhalak Dikhla Jaa to Extreme Makeover is a case of extreme change-over of genres for me.

And the best part is, Dancing With Stars on which Jhalak… is based and Extreme Makeover are the most popular reality shows internationally. I'm proud to be in both."

As for movies Mona terminated her contract with the Page 3 producer Bobby Puskarna with whom she had signed a film. "Nothing was happening for two years. I realized there was no point in waiting.

At the end of the day it's all about acting. As long as I keep getting to do exciting things like Jhalak Dikhla Jaa, Extreme Makeover and hosting a radio show (which I've just started doing), I'm happy."

Besides work, there's no exciting development in Mona's life. " After Jassi got over I was at home for two months. I was thoroughly bored. While doing Jassi I was complaining about having no time. But now I realize I might as well complain about that that get bored at home."
