She believes that her first experience as a film actor was challenging. "The film is a black comedy. I play an average, ambitious, working girl who goes through a lot to understand the intricacies of life. The common people will identify with it," she adds. The actor also has a hankering for the more 'serious' roles, "Something like Konkona Sen in Page 3, and Rani Mukherjee in Veer Zara and Black," she explains. "But I am also open to running around trees but not right now," she adds smiling.
Mona did always harbour a desire to be famous, but never 'worked' towards it. She believes in the power of thinking big, or as she puts it, "One must not stop dreaming, things happen only if you dream. I always dreamt of signing autographs. In fact, a long time ago, before I became a household name, I'd come down to Mumbai for a function where Amitabh Bachchan was the chief guest. I was standing next to him, and was soon pushed aside by a throng of people who rushed towards him. At that point, I visualised that some day I too will be mobbed like this. That was in January 2003. Within two months, I lived out my dream when Jassi became a hit. I was mobbed at the same place. That's called destiny!"
