In an interview with Hindustan Times recently, she spoke about the two selfies with Shah Rukh Khan and Aryan Khan and how they went viral.

A selfie with SRK

On his birthday, all his people were around, but no one was taking selfies. Because there were official photographers and we were told we’d get those pictures. By the time I got the chance to meet and wish him personally, none of the photographers were around. So I looked at him and said I needed a picture. He said, ‘I’m so sorry Mona, no selfies tonight.’ I was like I respect that.

The actress added that she couldn’t get a picture till 4 in the morning and before she was leaving, the actor called her and said, “Come here, do you know how talented you are?”

A selfie with Aryan Khan

It was the grandest premiere any of us had been to. When the screening (The Archies) got over, I met and congratulated Zoya and the cast. I bumped into Aryan when I was leaving and told him his sister is so amazing in the movie. Then I told him let’s take a selfie. He graciously obliged, but I couldn’t get the angle right. He said, ‘Ma’am, it’s my job.’ And that’s how it happened, organically.
