Actor Mona Singh is currently enjoying a busy phase in her career with three projects released in the last one-and-a-half months. Her latest show, Kohrra season 2, delves into gender-based power dynamics and the looming patriarchy in society.

Mona Singh insists that patriarchy is still prevalent even in the industry, where a 'brotherhood romance' exists, making women feel like outsiders.

She asserts that this reflects reality, citing instances where men feel uncomfortable taking orders from her just because she's a woman.

Mona plays a superior police officer in Kohrra season 2, where she unravels the dynamics of a man reporting to a woman in a male-dominated field.

Reflecting on the challenges of playing a cop, Mona says there's a constant need to prove herself and her capabilities, often due to underestimation of women's physical abilities.

Barun Sobti, her co-star, also agrees that many men have a problem with stronger women, citing instances of men getting uncomfortable with women taking charge.
