She recalled at Subhash Ghai holi party how Rakesh Roshan saw her and was keen that she act in his film and gave her his card. Monica said, “At Subhash Ghai’s Holi party, Rakesh Roshan walked up to me. I knew he is an actor, I had watched his films. But I didn’t know he is also a director-producer. So, he came to me and did some small talk. He gave me his card and told me, ‘Come and see me tomorrow." She further added, "I was like why is he calling me over, he is an actor. I tore the card and threw it away. I was like there is something fishy.”
