The turning point in the career of Mona Vasu came with the serial 'Millie'. The creative head of Star Plus Shailaja Bajpai of Star Plus saw her travel show and offered her the character of Millie. At first she refused as she did not want to get into television but after two months she agreed to do the role as it would give her a platform to display her acting skills. Moreover the character was young and not the coquettish types so she took up the role and her life changed for better. Soon after she became a household name. She could also relate herself to the character as far as the body language and the look is concerned. She also sports a bindaas style but unlike the character she portrayed she is not overtly conscious of her femininity. She is also very transparent and candid like the character she portrayed. With her co-stars also she shares a great level of comfort. The genuineness of her friendship with Ajay Gehi reflects well on-screen. At present she is not looking at television, as that would stagnate her acting flair. She wants to focus on films and is open to both contemporary as well as commercial films. She was also offered a role by the Yash Raj productions but as it included an outdoor shooting, she could not go ahead as she was committed to the daily 'Millie'. But in future she is looking forward to work for a Yash Raj production. In her spare time she likes to read, watch films, water plants and go out for coffee chats with her new friends of the unit. In the years to come this talented actress is expected to appear in more meaningful roles, which will be a delight both for her and her fans. |
