Munjya actress Mona Singh's ex Karan Oberoi reveals why she rejected his marriage proposal: 'We suffer when we want...'

Actor Karan Oberoi, who shared screen space with Mona Singh in the iconic show Jassi Jaisi Koi Nahi, revealed that she rejected her marriage proposal despite being in love and in a relationship.

“Our romance began on the set of Jassi Jaisi Koi Nahin. If you spend so much time with someone, then it is natural to develop affection for them. She is a very good actor. She was very chilled out and she had a terrific sense of humour, which I found very appealing. I think it was very natural for me to fall for her… She laughs openly and I fell in love with this aspect of her. She is very bindaas as a person. It was beautiful while it lasted. There are many compulsions due to which you go separate ways but that doesn’t mean that you harbour any ill feeling for anyone,” said Karan in an interview on Siddharth Kannan’s YouTube channel.

He added, “Understandable. Jassi was a stellar show, and she was a national icon. She was rising in her career. At that time, I didn’t understand this, but now I can… We suffer when we want other people to be like us. When you don’t expect anything from anyone, you won’t judge them, then you will be happy. You don’t understand this when you are young, so you take it as a rejection. She wanted to focus on her career, and there is nothing wrong with that.”

Mona Singh has been part of films like 3 Idiots and Laal Singh Chaddha. Her recent film Munjya has turned out to be a box office success. Directed by Aditya Sarpotdar, the supernatural horror-comedy also features Abhay Verma, Sharvari, Suhas Joshi and others in prominent roles.
