Actor Mona Singh is riding high on the success of The Ba***ds of Bollywood, a web series she carefully selected for its character-driven role. In an exclusive interview, she shared that she was approached for the popular TV show Anupamaa years ago, but turned it down as she had decided to focus on OTT projects. At the time, Singh was 40, and made a conscious decision to prioritize projects that resonated with her, choosing not to take on roles 'just to be seen'. She credits her approach for allowing her to maintain a positive work environment and avoid regrets. When asked about Rupali Ganguly's portrayal of Anupamaa, Singh expressed her admiration for the actress, saying the role was 'meant for her' and that she has 'owned it beautifully'. Singh's own approach to roles has its challenges, including waiting for the right project to come along. However, she remains committed to her selective approach, valuing the respect of her audience over the influence of social media. Her latest outing, Thode Door Thode Paas, explores the consequences of excessive digital media use and the importance of digital detox. Singh feels fortunate that her acting skills are still valued, rather than just her social media following.
