Mona Singh advised Gaurav Gera to calm down

Recalling the moment, Mona said Gaurav, who had waited nearly 10–15 years for a breakthrough project, was extremely excited after landing the role. In his enthusiasm, he began sharing details about his look and character arc with her. That’s when Mona stepped in with a reminder. “I told him, ‘Do you remember you’ve signed an NDA?’ Even if you’re telling me, you shouldn’t be sharing these things,” she said, underlining that such agreements are meant to be taken seriously, even in private conversations.

Directed by Aditya Dhar, Dhurandhar features Ranveer Singh as a deep-cover Indian intelligence agent operating in Karachi. Gaurav plays Aalam Bhai, a Lyari-based handler who assists the mission while running a local juice shop. In Dhurandhar, he assists Indian agent Jaskirat Singh Rangi (alias Hamza Ali Mazari) played by Ranveer Singh, with local intelligence. In the sequel, his role expands into a key operative in larger anti-terror missions.

As of now, Dhurandhar: The Revenge continues its record-breaking run at the box office, having crossed 1,013 crore net in India and approximately 1,605 crore worldwide within 19 days of release. The film has become the first Hindi film ever to breach the 1,000 crore mark domestically and currently ranks among the highest-grossing Indian films globally, with strong momentum continuing into its third week.

On the other hand, Mona was last seen in Maa Ka Sum, which was recently released on Prime Video. Mona was also seen in Subedar, and the critically acclaimed Kohrra Season 2, currently streaming on Netflix.
