Actress Mouni Roy jetted off to Bali, Indonesia with her girl gang for a fun vacation in the arms of nature. The Bong babe ticked off the mandatory touristy indulgences from her itinerary which included riding the famous swings.
Mouni wrote on Instagram, "Always wanted to do this," with pictures of her taking the swing ride - one with a waterfall and one wearing a magnificent red dress overlooking the lush greenery.
Meanwhile, on the work front, Mouni was last seen in the web series âShowtime' with Emraan Hashmi. In an interview with IANS, she spoke about the challenge she faced in the industry, most notably of being typecast. She said, "I've been typecast, yes, of course. But I've also been very, very lucky with directors who had the vision to see me in different roles, in different parts. So yeah, I mean, like Emraan (Hashmi) said that it may be a fair industry, but I truly believe it is a very difficult industry. And along with hard work, it comes with a lot of challenges. There is the struggle that you cannot deny."
"There is no shortcut to hard work that you can take. And I truly believe work begets work. When you are focused on a project, whether it's a dancing or an acting part, if you give your 100 percent if you somehow get into the skin of the character and justify it, I think sooner or later you're going to land that next role. And that's been the only mantra of my life," she added.
She will next be seen in 'Blackout' with Vikrant Massey, Anil Kapoor, and Sunil Grover. Directed by Devang Bhavsar, 'Blackout' is touted to be a crime thriller comedy. Produced by Jyoti Deshpande and Niraj Kothari, Blackout is slated to stream on JioCinema from June 7. The film is written by Devang Bhavsar, Abbas Dalal, and Hussain Dalal.
Mouni will also be seen in the upcoming sci-fi horror comedy film 'The Virgin Tree' along with actors Sanjay Dutt, Sunny Singh, and Palak Tiwari. Helmed by Sidhaant Sachdev, the film's official release date is still awaited.
