The actor, who played lead character Asmaan’s mother Neeta in the show, opened up about her kiss with Bobby Deol’s character, Ajay Talwar, calling it “one of the most fun scenes” she’s ever shot. “Aryan was so clear…”In an interview with Zoom, Mona praised director Aryan Khan’s clarity and composure on set. “Aryan was so clear that he wanted it that way,” she recalled, referring to the silent slow-motion sequence that stunned fans in the show’s climax. “That slow-motion shot without music and audio worked wonders. Because the moment you see it, you want to go back — you can’t believe what you just saw.” She shared that Aryan was deeply involved in every detail — from framing and blocking to the emotional rhythm of the scene. “He knew exactly how to shoot it. He went with his gut, and I’m so glad he did,” Mona added.Recreating a Deol classicOne of Aryan’s most creative decisions was to reimagine the cult song Duniya Haseeno Ka Mela from Gupt (1997) — retitled Sailab in the show. While Mona wasn’t part of the original track, Aryan digitally inserted her into the sequence alongside Bobby Deol.“I actually danced for the music video,” she revealed. “Even the kiss I gave to Bobby — I was doing that with a man dressed in a full blue costume! Aryan kept showing me every move. He’s so sure of what he wants, and his comic timing is excellent.”When the climax shocked everyoneAfter the finale dropped, Mona said her phone “didn’t stop buzzing”. “So many of my friends and producers called me late in the night after watching the last scene,” she laughed. “Everyone said, ‘What the hell? Yeh kya hai?’ It was such a crazy climax.” Her personal favourites from the show, she shared, include the now-viral fan moment between Raghav Juyal and Emraan Hashmi, who plays an intimacy coordinator. “That one and the climax — those are my top two,” Mona said.About The Ba***ds of BollywoodIn Aryan Khan’s debut series, Mona plays Neeta, mother to aspiring actor Aasmaan Singh (Lakshay).
