Mona Singh Reveals She Used To Earn Rs 1.5 Lakh Per Month For Jassi Jaissi Koi Nahi: 'I Was Crying...'
Mona Singh said that she called her parents and told them to buy whatever they wanted.

Mona Singh is one of the most talented actresses in the industry. She became a household name after the success of her popular television show, Jassi Jaissi Koi Nahi. Recently, the actress opened up about her remuneration from the show and how she reacted after hearing the amount.

Speaking to Entertainment Live, Mona said, “For me, it was a shocker because they had not hired me on a per-day basis, they were keeping me on a package basis. They offered me Rs 1.5 lakhs a month. I was like, ‘Kya!”

She added, “I went to the STD booth since my phone had run out of battery. I called my parents and I was crying inconsolably. I was like, ‘Mumma, guess what? Merko Rs 1.5 lakh mil rahe hain. My mom was like, ‘What!’ I told her, ‘You go and shop wherever you want to, buy whatever you want to.’ She couldn’t believe it, she was like, ‘Chotuuuu, itna kamayegi.’”

“After the show was released and everything was going well, I got a call that the channel head, Sunil Lulla, wants to meet you at his office. I thought they were firing me. Sometimes you do not realise your worth and even I didn’t know how big a star I have become. So, I went to meet him and he told me, ‘We think we are not paying you enough. Hum tumhaare 2 lakh aur badha rahe hain. I was like ‘What!!!’ So, I was getting Rs 3.5 lakh per month. After Jassi was over, they signed me for exclusivity,” she shared.

Mona added, “I felt I am spiderman, ghar mein kuch aur, bahar kuch aur. People didn’t recognise me on the streets. But my voice was a giveaway. Every time I opened my mouth in public, be it at the airport or a shop, people would look at me with suspicion. That was an amazing feeling. Even when I smiled, people would be like, ‘Is she Jassi?’ The channel used to take care of me since it was a tough show and the media had challenged the channel that they were going to find out who is Jassi.”

Mona was recently seen in Made in Heaven 2, where she impressed the audience yet again. Her performance was one of the breakthrough performances of the season.
