Mona Singh is currently basking in the success of Aryan Khan's The Ba***ds of Bollywood. She also had another recent OTT release titled Thode Door Thode Paas. However, the actress revealed that years ago she was approached for the hugely popular television show Anupamaa, which ultimately went ahead with Rupali Ganguly.
What's Happening
- Mona Singh candidly shared that she had decided not to do television anymore when she was approached for Anupamaa years ago.

- She added, "I'm really happy for Rupali and Rajan Shahi. She is doing such a fabulous job. I think that role was meant for her, and she has owned it beautifully."
On Consciously Choosing Roles
The 44-year-old further explained that she has never taken on any role merely to be 'seen.'
She said, "For me, what matters is whether the role makes me happy and connects with me. I don't want to regret my decisions later or carry any negative energy on set."
