Chon Chon played one of the eleven heroines of Yash Raj films’ Chak De! India (2007). The film was a major success and records one of India’s biggest sporting victories.
Chon Chon heard from her friends that Yash Raj films were looking for a Mongoloid (North Eastern) girl for the role of a player in India’s world-beating national hockey team.
Chon Chon (Molly) would later tell Rediff.com, ‘The team was fantastic. The girls helped each other. It was really a good experience. I am proud to be part of such a team. We were from all parts of India. People should copy us to learn about unity…We used to sing songs. We cried when the shooting got over.’
Her toughest moment during the shooting was a scene when the female players had to fight with some boys. There were many young men in that sequence. The girls had to kick them, pick them up and throw them around. ‘It was very difficult for me to maintain a fighting attitude,’ Chon Chon recalled.
