'Border 2' emotional for Mona Singh, remembers father on success

Actress Mona Singh recalls her father's influence and shares her emotional connection to the film 'Border 2' during its successful launch.

The film 'Border 2', which has made waves at the box office, has been a significant success story and actress Mona Singh, who plays the role of Simi Kaler, shared an emotional revelation during a press conference celebrating the film's success. Singh articulated that the film is not merely a project for her; it closely mirrors her own family story as she is a daughter of a soldier, reflecting the emotions she grew up witnessing in her household. This personal connection to the narrative has deepened the film's impact for her.

During the press conference, Singh revealed the dramatic way in which she received the offer to join the film 'Border 2'. She was heavily engaged in promoting another project when she received a call from the film's makers just one week before shooting was scheduled to start. Singh shared her belief that often, scripts choose actors rather than vice versa; upon reading the script, she felt a profound alignment with the story and decided to manage her schedule to make it work. This commitment underscores her dedication to portraying a story that resonated deeply with her personal history.

As 'Border 2' garners acclaim and box office success, the emotional weight it carries for Singh exemplifies how actors can bring their own experiences and familial backgrounds to their roles, enriching the storytelling on screen. The film's victory is not just a professional achievement for Singh, but a tribute to her father's legacy and the sacrifices made by families of soldiers, which adds a layer of authenticity to the cinematic portrayal of such themes in the film.
