Career.
Gill was working in pharmaceuticals trying to figure out if she wanted to pursue her medical career. After winning Miss India Worldwide USA, Gill decided to pursue Bollywood in India. Her pageant win opened up many doors in the Indian film industry including a meeting with Tips that lead to a three film deal. Gill was originally hoping to land roles in Bollywood but her Hindi-speaking skills were an issue. Coming from Punjabi family, Gill was fluent in speaking Punjabi and decided to pursue Punjabi films instead. Gill landed a talent agent in Mumbai and went to acting school before making her film debut.
Gill made her Punjabi film debut in the 2016 Tips' film "Ambarsariya" opposite Diljit Dosanjh. That year, she went on to star in three back to back blockbuster Punjabi films. The following year, she made her Hindi film debut in the 2017 K9 film "Firangi". In 2018, she was seen in the Hindi film "Paltan", where she played love interest to Harshvardhan Rane. In 2019, she acted in Punjabi-language period drama "Yaara Ve". Monica supported the 2020–2021 Indian farmers' protest.

Gill moved back home with her parents to plan her wedding but due to the pandemic, their wedding has been on hold until it is safe to hold inperson events.
