My first Dance Round-Mona

Mona Singh
TV actor

On the first performance day of Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa, I was told that Toby and I were going to perform last. I was a little disheartened, because I was afraid that the judges would lose interest by the time we took centre stage. And to top it all, I was performing a jive on Gori Gori, which happens to be Farah Khan's song.

So, considering the circumstances, I was a nervous wreck. Thankfully., the performance went of well, except for one tiny glitch. But during my stint with Jhalak, I learnt that a big mistake calls for an even bigger smile. So, a big grin and a little bit of acting helped cover it up, and got me triple 8 in my first round!
