Mouni has left no stone unturned in dedicating time to extra rehearsals, and perfecting her body language.
Talking about the same, Mouni said: “Milan Luthria sir is actually very precise and he knows exactly what he wants. I remember I always asked him which song we were doing the cabaret to. And he always said it will be an original song, and it will be superb.”
“When you watch the show, you will see that I have attempted to do Jazz the very first time in my life. I rehearsed more than usual because it requires a different body language and I was not very confident with the dance style. I think we all just went by the vision of Milan sir,” she added.
