Mona Singh, or Jassi, has won millions of hearts with her honest-girl-next-door role in the hit television serial Jassi Jaisi Koi Nahin.
The actress chatted with rediff.com readers on December 5, and seemed to have as good a time as her fans did asking her their questions.
For those who missed the chat, here's the transcript.
Mona Singh : Hello, This is Mona Singh here. Waiting for your questions.
Poonam_verma10 : is ths a wronge information to us that jassi is going to chat with us sid : hy mona,u really look beautiful.r u doing any movies Akshay : Jassi why don't you come to Singapore, Its a nice place & lot of Indians here girl : MONA, WHY ARE YOU LATE? vish : monaji no probs we know the traffic condition on mumbai as we get late daily for our offices...lolz Sara : The channel hyped Armaan-Jassi marriage but cheated & betrayed the fans & viewers by showing Armaan getting married to Mallika. When the news got leaked you appeared on Saas Bahu Saazish (Star News) and calmed down the fans by saying Armaan is definitely getting married to Jassi and not Mallika. Was this only a cheap publicity gimmick or were you too not aware of what the channel intended to do? Hema : How close are you with shilpa, Apurvas wife..It was very nice to see the warm hug you shared with her on awards day..!! sagar : my self sagar , i am ur big fan sashi : Hi Mona, how do you describe the transformation from oridinary gal to popular actress on TV ?? saritha : HI MONA! HOW DID U HAPPEN TO WORK ON JASSI? HAD U BEEN PLANNING TO WORK ON SERIALS OR DID IT JUST HAPPEN? tyagi,aman : hi, jassi singh or Mona Walia how r u mike37 : whats yr favourite dish and cuisine? arif : Are you getting any offers from Bollywood......I would really like to see you With MR. SHAHRUKH KHAN :) romilachitturi : Jassi i want to tell you one thing is u look good with Raghav not with Armaan...what do you think about this? Ankush : Hi mona, Congrats on receiving the award !!! just wanted to ask that nowadays you seem to have put on some weight (which is looking absolutely good !) ... is that with the story demanding it ? Sara : Nowadays, there is a lot written about Karan Oberoi and you. Mid-day says he followed you to Goa. Are you serious about him? Should we consider your'll as the next telly couple? sunilkumar : jassi, are you going to marry armaan suri in u're today's episode sujay : hi jasssiiii ..... jiiiiiiii.... kasisay hain apppp.......... Ankush : Did u put on weight for the story as u are looking more a "woman" than a "just out of college girl" now Padi : assalam ailaikum wa rahmutulla wah barakattu mahimaa : Would u answer my question.. Jassi.. i'ld definetly like to meet u... Can u do something for it..???? Anurag Arora : HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT UR COSTARS IN jjkn Padi : Mona u can take all my sona pady : hows it working for a daily soap? lanceklusener : Jassi! Don't you think the Indian shows have become a show-off? People use English for know reason, mixing with Hindi. Don't you think people of Mumbai have become too Americanized? Hema : dO YOU GO TO aPURVAS HOUSE AND HE TO YOUR HOUSE FOR DINNER ETC..? HOW IS IT OFF SCREEN..WOULD LOVE TO KNOW MORW ABOUT YOU AND APURVA.. sashi : This might be obivious questions to many starts but every experience might be different.... so how did u feel on ur first shot ?? dia : and mona...do u have a fan club??? and is it possible for us fans to write to u and stuff...i saw ur dad and mom at the telly awards....boy!!!they must be really proud!! cutelovelygirl : Hi Mona, We all wanna no abt the chemistry between u and Apoorva, Abhijeet Sawant and Karna Oberoi? star : You have enjoyed success. your earlier look was better. now Jassi is boring. TRP is down. Only Story and Extensive Marketing Stratery can make a serial like Jassi Heat. Sony Spent crores in Advertisement. What do you have to say? MandarK : Can u cook food at all ..?? Sym1 : Hi Mona I'm also a serial Actor and GREAT FAN of you. Don't you think that people will always remember you as Jassi after couple of years. Any will compare your each and every new serial with jassi (Arun Govil and other Actor and Actresses have had the same problem).

Mona Singh : No its not the wrong information. I am here with you guys, please start sending your questions.
Mona Singh : Thank you. After my glasses I have actually started looking good...haha Yes I am doing movies and you will soon know about it.
Mona Singh : Well I have been to Singapore and I know its a beautiful place. In fact the entire team of Jassi was shooting there last year.
Mona Singh : Sorry for being late. Was busy shooting with Armaan Sir.
Mona Singh : Thanks for understanding that but I have never reached Gulmohar late.
Mona Singh : Yes Sara I was definitely not aware of the fact that Armaan was marrying Mallika but I can promise you one thing very soon the two of us are gonna be together.
Mona Singh : Shilpa and I are very good friends and it was nice receiving the award from her.
Mona Singh : myself Jassi. Thank you for being my fan.
Mona Singh : Its a beautiful journey. Lot of hard work, sweats, tears and smiles.
Mona Singh : I always wanted to act. I had auditioned for Jassi and I got the role.
Mona Singh : This is Mona Singh/Jassi Walia. I am fine. You tell me.
Mona Singh : Only Punjabi food cooked by Bebe.
Mona Singh : Yes I am getting offers. Just pray for me so that I get to work with Shahrukh.
Mona Singh : Jassi can look good only with Armaan. What say?
Mona Singh : No not at all. The story is demanding me to lose weight.
Mona Singh : Well, Karan and I are just very good friends. No telly couple happening here.
luchi : Hi Mona, How did it feel to look ugly on screen?
Mona Singh : Got so much love from you all that I felt beautiful.
Mona Singh : Not today but very soon.
Mona Singh : Hum theek hai...aap batao
Mona Singh : Yes I guess sarees did the thing for me.
Mona Singh : Satsriakal
Mona Singh : Yeah sure. Come to our shoot in Powai.
Mona Singh : Its great to work with all of them. We are like a huge family and its party time every day when we are together.
Mona Singh : Dont need Sona...I have got a sister called Sona...hahah
Mona Singh : Very tiring, very hectic, no personal life. That's all I can say about a daily soap.
Mona Singh : I dont think so. We all usually speak in English also and using that in Hindi serials is not a show-off.
Mona Singh : Yes we do meet each other even after pack up. It feels great to have friends like Apurva. We usually sit at Baristas or go for dinner to Urban Tadka.
Mona Singh : First shot -- nervous, kept forgetting all my lines. I only was thinking of Babaji.
Mona Singh : Please write to me using the following link. And yes my parents are really proud of having a daughter like Jassi. http://www.setindia.com/jassipal/jassi_login.php
Mona Singh : All good friends....no chemistry.
Mona Singh : Forward this question to Sony.
Mona Singh : Yes....wanted to be a chef. Well I have cooked for nearly 30 people at once with five different courses.
Mona Singh : Jassi has been the biggest show for me and I wont mind even if after 20 years people remember me as Jassi. But as an actor I definitely would do something totally different from Jassi once the show gets over.
Mona Singh : Both in their own way
Mona Singh : I use the same soap. I feel great
Mona Singh : Have been answering too many questions..so maybe I missed yours. Sorry
Mona Singh : Hi Chotu, we both share the same pet name..
Mona Singh : Hi Ruchi. how are you?
Mona Singh : Open to films and open to be covered.
Mona Singh : I am from Pune, but native place Delhi.
Mona Singh : Thank you.
Mona Singh : No time for boyfriend..only busy working.
