She essayed the role of Sati in ‘Devon Ke Dev...Mahadev’, and Meera in ‘Junoon — Aisi Nafrat Toh Kaisa Ishq’. Roy made her film debut in 2011 with the Punjabi romantic film, ‘Hero Hitler in Love’. She made her Hindi film debut with the 2018 period sport film, ‘Gold’, directed by Reema Kagti and starred Akshay Kumar in the lead.
She has then appeared in movies like — ‘London Confidential’, ‘Made in China’, ‘Brahmastra: Part One — Shiva’, and ‘Blackout’.
The 38-year-old actress had last appeared in the web series ‘Showtime’ directed by Mihir Desai and Archit Kumar. It stars Emraan Hashmi in the lead. Mouni next has ‘The Virgin Tree’ in the kitty.
Roy made her full-fledged Hindi film debut alongside Akshay Kumar as a housewife in Reema Kagti’s 2018 period sports film Gold, an Excel Entertainment production revolving around India’s struggle for recognition in the Hockey Olympics. Jyoti Sharma Bawa of Hindustan Times noted, “Roy as Akshay’s wife Monobina is just the right mixture of crotchety and charming. With her grasp of Bengali, she brings that extra something to the film’s milieu.” Devesh Sharma of Filmfare stated: “Mouni infuses the film with a dash of sensuality and her stern wife’s role adds a bit of a comic touch as well.” With global earnings of 1.5 billion, Gold emerged as a commercial success. Roy followed the success of Gold with an item number called “Gali Gali” in the Hindi version of K.G.F: Chapter 1, presented by Gold producers Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar.
