MUMBAI: Mouni Roy began her journey at a very young age from Television and has made a name for herself. She is one of the biggest names in Television and has also been seen in many Hindi Films. The gorgeous actress who is married to Suraj Nambiar has a huge fan following and never fails to impress her fans with her sultry and sexy looks.
Mouni, who gained immense recognition with Ekta Kapoor’s Naagin. She however recalled the time she was battling severely ill health, before she was approached for the show. The actress revealed, “Before Naagin began, I was in a phase where I thought my life was over. It's not that grim, grave, or sad. I was just severely unwell. I finished Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 9 and I had L4-L5 complete slipped degeneration and scoliosis on my spine, couldn't stand straight.”
She further said, “I had put on, I don't know how many kgs. It wasn't in a good way because I was on some 30 pills a day and injections sometimes. I had taken epidural in my spine. It was a very very bad time. I was bedridden for about 3 months and this is when I got a call for Naagin.”
Speaking of being sceptical of signing Naagin, Mouni said, “I had already done Mahadev by then so I was like maybe I shouldn't be doing another fantasy fiction.”
Revealing how she bagged Naagin, Mouni spoke fondly about Ekta Kapoor and said, “I still remember Varun had called me from Balaji. He said, 'You come and meet, you meet the team, you meet ma'am and see.' When I met Ma'am, the way she gave narration, it's unbelievable. She was very passionate about this project.”
She added, “"I had already gotten my brief so I went to meet. I had requested like 'Can I meet Ektaa ma'am to kind of decide whether I should do it or not.' In 10 minutes I was like, I really want to do it.”
