I was approached for Anupamaa before Rupali: Mona Singh

Actor Mona Singh is still basking in the success of the web series The Ba***ds of Bollywood. She chose the role with great care, but reveals that being selective has its own share of pros and cons. She reveals, “I was approached for (TV show) Anupamaa years ago. But by then, I had decided that I didn’t want to continue doing TV. Hence, I denied the show.”

The 44-year-old had made the conscious decision to focus on OTT projects by choosing character-driven roles, adding that she never takes up roles “just to be seen”. “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,” she explains.
