SEATED IN A HOTEL ROOM IN Jhansi, actor Mona Singh’s beaming face shows no signs of the weariness of shooting relentlessly. By her own account, she has shot four web series in 2023, which, going by the long-format duration, is as good as doing eight films. Best known for essaying Jassi in the popular TV show Jassi Jaisi Koi Nahin, a remake of the American sitcom Ugly Betty, Singh is currently basking in the release of three web series this year—Kafas (SonyLIV), Made in Heaven season two (Amazon Prime) and the latest, Kaala Paani (Netflix). So omnipresent is the actor that Singh’s social media following has blown up, with fans hailing her as the “Pankaj Tripathi of web series”. “I can just feel the change,” she says. “I’m grateful for witnessing these beautiful times that have come after a long gap.”
