Mohnish appeared on the singing reality show 'Indian Idol 14's special episode 'Celebrating Nutan Ji.' He was accompanied by his wife, Ekta Sohini, and daughters, Pranutan and Krishaa.

Reminiscing about the legendary actress and his mom Nutan, the 'Hum Saath-Saath Hain' fame actor shared an anecdote of the filming of the song 'Dil Ka Bhanwar Kare Pukar', sung by Mohammed Rafi from the 1963 movie 'Tere Ghar Ke Samne', starring Dev Anand and Nutan in the lead.
He said, "I remember that Mom shared an incident where a large crowd blocked Qutub Minar from all sides, and the shooting of 'Dil Ka Bhanwar Kare Pukar' was halted midway. As Dev Anand Saab and Nutan Ji were superstars, a huge crowd had gathered to catch a glimpse."
