Mona’s passion to replace Mallika

My passion for Films

My dad wanted me to be a doctor while my mom wanted me to be anything but an actress. My mom knows that nothing can change my mind. In 2001, when I was 17, I dropped out of college (St.Ann’s College, Mehdipatnam) and ran away to Mumbai with just Rs 5,000 with me. I started off with modelling. After giving about 50 auditions each day for more than six months, I got my first break as a heroine in a film called Timepass which unfortunately flopped.

My sexuality is my USP

I completely believe in my sexuality and I am not at all ashamed of it. Despite the fact that I was very shy as a kid, I had my first sexual experience when I was sixteen. It gives me a high. I would in fact want to do films like Basic Instinct. I want to be like Bipasha Basu who is so effortlessly seductive. In less than six months, I am going to replace Mallika Sherawat.

My Fitness Regime

I don’t go to the gym. But I do a lot of jogging. I am not a food freak. I eat only chappatis and drink lots of water.

Lucky in South

My first Telugu movie, A Film by Arvind, was a superhit. My next Telugu titled ‘Something Something’ is similar to the Bollywood hit ‘No Entry’.

About Marriage

I do not want to get married as I am too self-centered and cannot commit to anybody. By preferring to be single throughout my life, I can always have the companion of my choice and if need be, dump him whenever he becomes a liability! I think marriage is a sheer waste of time. It burdens you with unnecessary baggage like parentage and unwanted responsibilities. Moreover, even if you wish to seek a divorce, you would have to shell out alimony. I do like kids and might adopt one rather than going for pregnancy.

Forthcoming Films

Year 2007 is surely going to be mine. I want to play the bad girl for a good cause. You must see me in my forthcoming films like ‘Naughty Boy’, ‘Red Swastika’ and ‘Daghaa’ to believe me. I am also doing the remake of Sex, Lies and Videotape titled Ishq, Jurm Aur Videotape.
