Mouni Roy is having a great weekend. After all, it began on a great note with the actress winning a top honour at the IIFA awards on Saturday. The actress received an award for her performance in the film Brahmastra. She played the lead antagonist in the film headlined by Ranbir Kapoor. Following the win, she shared a special image in which Mouni – who is holding the award in her hand – is getting a peck on the cheek from her husband, Suraj Nambiar. Sharing the photo, Mouni said, “Holding the most prestigious award with the joy and light of my life. Thank you @iifa family for this incredible honour #Brahamastra.”
In response, Suraj Nambiar too dropped an equally mushy note. He wrote, “Both holding our respective awards. Well-deserved is an understatement. Onwards and upwards!”
Actor Karan Tacker said, “Congratulations!” Mouni Roy's BFF Mandira Bedi said, “So so proud of you Mon. Big congratulations.” Mouni's friends Surbhi Jyoti, Aashka Goradia Goble, Drashti Dhami and Disha Patani also wished the actress.
Meanwhile, Suraj reshared the post on Instagram Stories and said, “Holding our respective awards. Congratulations baby.”
