While her last release Utt Pataang might have not faired too well at the box-office, actor Mona Singh remains undaunted. The cheerful actor is now looking forward to her next film with Vinay Pathak called Lakshman Rekha, which is a rom-com.
"I have always loved Vinay's work and wanted to work with him. In fact, I would say that it's a treat to work with him! When Utt Pataang came along, I grabbed the offer immediately and now, I'm looking forward to Lakshman Rekha where Vinay plays Lakshman and I play Rekha," offers Singh.
The actor admits to having a tough time shooting for Utt Pataang. "It was such a challenge for me, as I had to play this serious character and I am the opposite in real life! While people around me kept laughing, I had to maintain a serious face," she offers. In fact, because of her nature, Singh is called Mona Happy Singh more often than not, she adds.
The actor, who is on her third film now, however can't forget the experience while shooting for her first. "While shooting for 3 Idiots, I had expected everyone to come with baggage of attitude. But, infact I had to call my friends and family to tell them that Kareena is sweet. Boman too was very supportive and the superstar himself, Aamir Khan, came up to me and said that he had watched Jassi," informs Singh,who was pretty touched at the gesture.
When not doing films, Singh is pretty busy with her role as an anchor. Currently, she is not looking to do any saas-bahu serials, as they require too much time. "At this stage, I can't do without a regular off and anchoring is something that I enjoy, because I get to be myself. I don't follow any scripts and have no inhibitions whatsoever. Initially, when I started anchoring, I was quite nervous and did not know how to go about things. But now people ask me for advice,"she signs off.
