Sumona Chakraborty’s workout and fitness journey has been going on since 2011.

After rejecting ‘KKK’ earlier, why did she agree this time?

Actually, this show was offered earlier also but due to my old work commitments, I could not agree. This time I had no work. As soon as the makers approached, I immediately said yes.

Show Of For Self To How much fit Manati Are,

My workout and fitness journey has been going on since 2011. For this show I have only increased my cardio exercises. Two years ago I injured my shoulder. Now there is complete focus on that old injury. Well, no matter how much physical preparation you do, the reality is that during stunts, it is very important to be mentally strong. I am mentally fit. Yoga and meditation have taught me to handle every situation in my life.

Self discipline is most important for me. I wake up every day at 5.30 am. I sleep by 10.30 pm. I work out every day. Doesn’t eat outside food at all. Even during shooting, I eat home-made food. For the last several years, I have been living a disciplined life. I am sure that this discipline will help me take forward in this show.

What Reason doing That Now You people From Work Demand doing Are,

I had to face many challenges in my professional life. Actually, I liked to remain confined to myself, not to talk openly to anyone, not to mingle with people easily and to speak less. The biggest challenge was to overcome my introvert nature. I could not get work. I remember that earlier I used to get many invitations for Page-3 party. But I did not go. I couldn’t be fake.

I like to talk but only with those with whom I can have some intellectual conversation. Instead of meeting people, I kept myself busy reading books, traveling solo, listening to music. But because of this nature people stopped approaching me. Stopped getting work. So, now I have started networking.

I tell people up front that I want to work with you. Earlier there was a lot of hesitation in doing all this, but not anymore. For the last 2-3 years I have not been shy in asking for work. I got this inspiration from Neena Gupta ji. Despite having so many years of experience, she can ask for work on social media, so why can’t I? People think I have pride. Or I don’t have time for work. But it is not so at all. People’s thinking has to be changed. I have now started messaging the director, creative director, everyone. I have full confidence in my talent.

Sumona has also worked in Salman Khan’s film ‘Kick’.

What kind of concepts do you want to be associated with in future?

I want to do all kinds of work but thriller is my favorite genre. Personally, I love watching murder-crime series. Now I want to play the role of a villain on screen. By the way, there is a desire to do something like the work Ranbir Kapoor did in the film ‘Animal’. Over the last few years, an image has developed for me. I want to break it.
