Have fun with these masks (roles played), I shall rather not have anything to do with them

The meaning is something like this:

The actor, probably, in previous comments talked a lot about the various roles he had played (the nakli chehre)and how he enjoyed them, and probably he or the interviewer asked the wife what she thought of these roles or whether she too fancied acting. And the wife, whose interest in not in acting, disclaims the offer rather strongly, saying that, acting is not her cup of tea, and may the husband enjoy all that is there in acting, she will have no truck with it.
