She plays a spy named Shraddha who is sent to her lover Romeo (played by Abraham) in [[Pakistan]]. A [[Bollywood Hungama]] review stated, "Mouni Roy has an interesting part to essay.

Her next film, ''[[Made in China (2019 film)|Made in China]]'', was released on the occasion of [[Diwali]]. She plays the role of a [[Gujarati people|Gujarati]] housewife, Rukmini Mehta, whose husband Raghuvir Mehta (played by [[Rajkummar Rao]]) decides to travel to China for new opportunities in business. Roy took Gujarati lessons for the film.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Mouni Roy is taking extensive lessons in Gujarati for her role in 'Made In China' – Times of India|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/hindi/bollywood/news/mouni-roy-is-taking-extensive-lessons-in-gujarati-for-her-role-in-made-in-china/articleshow/65499884.cms|access-date=28 June 2020|website=The Times of India|language=en}}</ref> In a review in [[India Today]], her performance as Raghu's wife was characterized as  "...a surprise package.
