Actress Mouni Roy, who is gearing up for her upcoming streaming show ‘Showtime’, has spoken up about the challenge she faced in the industry, most notably of being type💯ca🥀st.

The actress said that while it may be a fair industry but it’s not an easy industr🤪y to work in by any stretch of imagination as everyday☂ is a new challenge and it demands a lot from its artistes.

Elaborating on the same, Mouni Roy 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 diff𓂃erent roles, in different parts. So yeah, I mean, like Emraan 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.”

She further mentioned: “There is no shortcut to hard work that you can ta🐓ke. And I truly believe work begets work. When you are focused on a project, whether it's a dancing or an a🅰cting part, if you give your 100 per cent, 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.”

𒁃The series also stars Emraan Hashmi, Mahima Makwa💎na, Rajeev Khandelwal, Shriya Saran, Vishal Vashishtha, Neeraj Madhav, Vijay Raaz and Naseeruddin Shah in pivotal roles.

Created by Sumit Roy, ‘Showtime’ is set to stream on March 8 on ♕Disney+ Hots💝tar.
