The quirky plot of Monica O My Darling was reason enough for Sikandar Kher to say yes to the project. The eclectic casting then was the icing on the cake. Vasan Bala’s directorial venture helped Kher fulfil his long-standing wish of sharing screen space with Rajkummar Rao and Huma Qureshi. “The movie has some of the finest actors that the industry currently has. You can pick any of Rajkummar’s films — be it Shaitan [2011], which is a decade old, or one of his latest offerings like Badhaai Do. He has given an exemplary performance in each of them. Huma too picks her roles wisely and makes them look real,” says the actor.
