Mithun Chakraborty is now appointed the lifetime trustee of Dada Saheb Phalke Academy. The Academy already has Santosh Singh Jain, Govind Swaroop, Pahlaj Nihalani, Sanjay Patel, Sangram Shirke, Neena Jalan and Ram Gopal Gupta as lifetime trustees.
A delegation of trustees and other members including Chandra Shekhar, Jagdish Sharma and Ram Mohan met Chakraborty at his residence and, following the long discussions, chalked out a plan for Dada Saheb Phalke Jayanti celebrations and Phalke Academy awards presentation event.

Интерьвью с Мимохом
Daddys son
Rajiv Vijayakar
Its embarrassing to watch your parents romance says Mimoh Chakraborty whose film Jimmy will release soon. He’s a chip off the old block in the real sense. Mimoh Chakraborty has all the down-to-earth, warm qualities of his father Mithun Chakraborty that made the latter endure for three decades. Cheerful, ever-smiling and not prone to the faddish macho look common to most new faces, Mimoh also lacks the snooty attitude and brashness common to most of the star-progeny even before they take off. A welcome change, and a true daddy’s son, Mimoh comes across as the epitome of exemplary upbringing. Excerpts from an interview: A cliché: did you always want to be an actor, like dad?
I did not! I am immensely interested in Space Science. I love planets and I wanted to be a part of NASA. In school, they would talk about my dad, and that was my first impression of how popular dad was. But our family life was completely normal, and my becoming a star was never on the agenda. For starters, I was very fat— you cannot imagine how much! Around the time when I was 14 and beginning to feel physical attraction, I would have an armful of rakhis on Raksha Bandhan day from all the girls in my class! And I would actually be khush about this! (laughs)
So when did the great change happen?
Then much later, B Subhash, who is very close to my father from the times of Disco Dancer, called up dad and expressed a wish to work with me. I remember that even when he called I was digging into a MacDonald burger! (Laughs again) Dad asked me to consider the option if I wanted. ‘Try a diet!'’he told me. The next 2 to 3 years went on self-discipline and diet and my motivation slowly increased as my figure started becoming normal. So I went off for a month’s course to learn acting at the New York Film Academy.
What was dad'’s advice to you when you embarked on this career?
Dad told me to give 100 per cent to whatever I did. '’Be honest to yourself, your work and your family,’ he said. I adore the way he works— unlike many other actors who are good at specific aspects, dad is a switch-on-switch-off actor who was a dream dancer, good at action and also terrific at acting. If you have noticed, dad’s biggest asset is his range. He never prepared for any role, whether he was playing ‘Ramakrishna Paramhans’ or a goonda, but he instinctively understood his character.
Despite being a star-son you faced rough weather - your first film did not even take off, and Jimmy, which will be your first release, got delayed.
Well, two films never took off, but Jimmy wasn’t delayed. It was my first film, so I had to be satisfied with it. We added a song later and re-shot two songs. Bappa Lahiri has composed some of the music, which is quite fitting because his father Bappi Lahiri gave my father career-defining hit songs in Suraksha and Disco Dancer.
We heard that you were injured too on the sets of this film.
Yes, I pulled a muscle on my right leg. The rehearsals were perfect after I refused a double, but during the actual shot I overdid the part! And do you know what, when I called up and told dad about it from the sets, he said, ‘Is your left leg alright?’ and when I said it was, he told me to ensure that the shooting was not interrupted. That’s how professional he is!
Are you planning your career moves?
It’s like this, someone who always plans never enjoys and vice-versa. My funda is that if I earn Rs 3000, I enjoy Rs 1500 and save the same amount. I have already signed Popcorn Entertainment’s Loot, an action comedy with Suniel Shetty, Govinda and Javed Jaffrey. I am also doing Hamilton House, a period thriller, Salim (Akhtar)’s next in which I am a rock star and a film called India Rocks.
What is Jimmy all about?
Jimmy is an action thriller. Raj N Sippy is directing it and I am paired with a new girl, Vivana, who— let me tell you — is better than me! I play a car engineer who is a DJ at night. Then one incident changes his life.
Was the title deliberate - since ‘Jimmy Jimmy Jimmy’ is a hit song of your dad?
Yes it was. Sohail Khan suggested the idea as people identify the song with dad. But by the time the film'’s shoot had ended, it became an emotional bond for me too.
Your mom Yogeeta Bali too has been a top star. What has she to say about you?
She is my frank critic. But you know what? I never watch her films— I cannot watch her romancing other heroes! With Dad, it’s okay, though that sounds chauvinistic! (Laughs)
But dad and mom did movies together - so you can watch her in them.
No way! It’s embarrassing to watch your parents romance! (Guffaws).
And who are the other actors you admire?
I am a great fan of Sunny Deol ( ) as I am an action film buff. I love the way Hrithik Roshan and Shahid Kapoor dance. And Priyanka Chopra is my favourite actress!

Warns Loot director against giving meatier lines to Mithun's son
There’s never a dull moment with Govinda, whose unpredictable activities on the sets of his films leave all his co-stars flummoxed.
Best lines, please!
On the sets on Loot, the actor-turned-MP was not too pleased with the amount of footage being given to Mimoh by debutant director Rajnish Thakur. He told the Rajnish to make sure he got the best lines or else!
The director came up with a plan of his own to shoot the film in the manner he wants to. He shoots everything like Govinda wants it, and then re-shoots the portions with Mimoh in the senior actor’s absence.
Insecure
A source on the sets reveals, “Govinda has put Rajnish through hell. This has shocked one and all on the sets because it was Govinda who recommended Mithun’s son for the part! Now he is getting insecure and bad-mouthing the newcomer and is even going around telling people close to him how Mimoh is not the right choice for the movie.”
The source further adds, “Chi Chi warned the director that he wouldn’t shoot until Mimoh’s lines were given to him, as he was the star of the film. The producer and the director tried to reason with the actor but it was all in vain. So now we shoot a particular sequence in the film the Govinda way and then the next morning, Mimoh is called early on the sets and he does lines from the previous night as it is in the script.”
Chi Chi sure is in for a surprise once the film releases.

Fans will make us the best, says SRK - Countdown to Knight Riders’ debut
Lokendra Pratap Sahi
Mumbai, April 9: Shah Rukh Khan’s association with Calcutta actually began decades ago when, as a masscom student at the Jamia Millia Islamia University, he chose the city to be the theme of his audio-visual presentation.
Bollywood’s badshah has, of course, renewed ties with his ownership of the Kolkata Knight Riders. The team is among the more high profile ones in the path-breaking Indian Premier League (IPL).
“I think that AV presentation went off very well and I’m hoping that my latest association is just as successful. I’d like the fans to turn out in huge numbers and, even if we aren’t the best team, their support will make us into one,” a grinning Shah Rukh told The Telegraph this evening.
Speaking in his top-of-the-line silver BMW, during the hour-long drive from Goregaon’s Film City to his Bandra Bandstand residence, Shah Rukh added: “I realise that the countdown to our first match has begun, but I don’t have much of a role now.… It’s almost time to get on to the park and start playing. Time to get on with the job instead of looking at what’s done and what’s not done.”
The Knight Riders’ first game is on the opening day, April 18, in Bangalore. Being a hands-on owner, Shah Rukh has put in enough sweat and tears to match the effort seen in his blockbusters. Over the years, there have been quite a few.
“I’m a little tired, I must say. I didn’t expect so many hurdles. I’m passionate about everything I do and this IPL thing hasn’t been any different. Believe me, I’m not in it to make money. Surely, I don’t need to own a cricket team for that,” Shah Rukh said, lighting yet another cigarette.
One such “hurdle” is the entertainment tax being levied by the Bengal government. “If an exemption isn’t given, then I won’t be able to entertain fans at the Eden with a song-and-dance routine during the break between innings.
“The tax could amount to around Rs 1 crore for every match, assuming it’s a full house in each of the seven home games. A lot of my friends want to perform... Kareena (Kapoor), Rani (Mukerji). But I’d like to treat them as professionals and pay their fees. Mohali, I believe, has already got an exemption,” Shah Rukh pointed out.
An appeal has been made to the government, but Shah Rukh hasn’t personally spoken to anybody in authority.
“Look, I’m not good at these things. I don’t seek favours and, equally, nobody wants favours from me. Somebody in the administration could, out of goodwill, sanction something.… A week later, however, I wouldn’t like headlines saying an exception was made. I don’t do anything illegal and wouldn’t encourage anything which isn’t proper,” Shah Rukh said.
Incidentally, till Shah Rukh heard about Mithun Chakraborty’s takeover of the Calcutta team in the Indian Cricket League, he’d been wanting to invite him for the Knight Riders’ first match in Calcutta, on April 20. “I realise that can’t be done now,” he regretted.
Mithun won’t be there, but the Kareenas certainly will be around — even if they don’t perform on a makeshift stage. ***************************** Шах ОЧЕНЬ хотел пригласить на дебютный матч своей команды Митхуна и расстроился, что теперь это невозможно... Конкуренты, аднака...
Fifty-plus Mithun Chakraborty saved director Aseem Samanta from a lot of trouble when he shot for 'Don Muthuswami' despite being ill.
During the beginning of the second schedule of the film Mithun fell ill, but to everybody's surprise, the actor managed to come on location on the third day and shot for 14 hours continuously to finish the shooting on time.
'He had to shoot for almost 14 hours in one day and he was still very weak, but he completed the schedule. The performance delivered was, as usual, outstanding,' said Samanta.
'Since the dates of Hrishita Bhatt and Rohit Roy were committed for another film, no way could we extend the shooting. We thought that we would have to work out an additional schedule and arrange for everybody's dates again. This was going to delay the film by a minimum one month,' he added.
The film is about a hardcore Don played by Mithun. On the advice of his dying father, Don decides to alter and improve his image.
Несмотря на высокую температуру, Митхун "отпахал" 14 часов подряд на съемочной площадке фильма DON MUTTHUSWAMI. И, как ВСЕГДА, отработал каждый кадр на все СТО! Я и не сомневалась в этом!

Ever since the lukewarm response to Minister Fatakesto, Mithun Chakraborty has been more visible off the big screen than on it. This week, he resurfaces with his Poila Baisakh offering — Satyameva Jayate. Mithun tells t2 what had kept him busy all this while...
You haven’t had a Tolly release in the past six months...
Actually I am very busy in Mumbai. There are some very good films there, so I couldn’t devote much time to Tollywood. Satyameva Jayate is my first release this year.
What’s keeping you busy in Mumbai?
Well, I am doing a lot of films. There’s Luck with Sanjay Dutt and Chandni Chowk To China with Akshay Kumar. There’s UTV’s Phir Kabhi opposite Dimple Kapadia. Zindagi Tere Naam with Ranjita is still on the floors. Then there’s Ghosla and Don Muthuswamy.
What is Satyameva Jayate all about?
It’s a film about truth and honesty. There’s a belief that the year 2000 marked the end of kalyug and the start of satyayug. The film explores whether this is a myth or a reality. I play Vinayak, a police constable who fights for justice and goes through a lot in life.
Is your role any different from Fatakesto?
It’s very different from MLA and Minister Fatakesto. Why would I do similar films? It is very wrong to think that Vinayak is like Fatakesto. Fatakesto is a cult figure now. Satyameva Jayate has a different story. To me, all films are different because the execution of films is different.
Did you cut down on Tolly films because Minister Fatakesto didn’t do as well as MLA Fatakesto?
No, not at all. How can two films do similar business? How can you all ask a question like this? If one film does well, is there any rule that the next has to repeat the same business. The reason why I chose to do a lot of films last year was because I wanted to show that even regional films can do very good business.
You are launching two new girls in Satyameva...
Yes, Priyadarshini and Taniya. Both were participants in Zee Bangla’s Dance Bangla Dance. Priyadarshini plays a journalist, while Taniya is the villain’s girlfriend.
What made you choose them?
I felt they would suit the roles. Besides, both are fantastic dancers. See, when I launch someone I always look for the X-factor. Priyadarshini and Taniya have the spark to make it big.
I had also launched Shilpa Shirodkar and suggested Madhuri Dixit’s name to a couple of producers after someone came to me with her photograph. I worked opposite her in Prem Pratigya, Mujrim, Elaka and Pyar Ka Devta. At that time, producers were reluctant to cast her but I knew she would do well.
Any Bengali film on the floors?
I am doing an untitled film by Haranath Chakraborty. It’s a comedy and we will start shooting as soon as I am through with my Hindi films.
Mimoh's Dancing Gives 'jitters' To Papa Mithun Chakraborty
Sunday 04th of May 2008
Although Bollywood actor Mithun Chakraborty dotes on his son Mimoh, he is getting apprehensive of being overshadowed by him.
Mimoh's debut-making movie, 'Jimmy' is releasing two weeks after 'Don Muthuswamy', in which Mithun plays the title role, that hits the screens May 9.
Mithun fears that 'Jimmy', in which Mimoh shows off his amazing dancing skills, might overshadow his own film and give him a tough time in consolidating his second innings in Bollywood.
'Mimoh is so good at dancing that even I got jitters when I saw a trial screening of 'Jimmy' recently. And, mind you, I have not been a bad dancer in my earlier innings in Hindi movies,' Mithun told IANS here.
Now that his son has turned an actor, is there any chance of both working together in movies in the near future?
'No chance,' Mithun remarked promptly. 'I will not be able to keep pace with Mimoh's dancing vim and vigour. Plus, I am sure Mimoh would not like to be overshadowed by my histrionic abilities.'
Does it mean that he does not rate Mimoh very high as an actor?
'It takes a performer at least 10 years to learn the ropes of acting. Mimoh has just begun his career. He has to go through the grind before he calls himself an actor in the true sense,' Mithun said matter-of-factly.
Incidentally, this is the same Mithun who had created Bollywood history in 1976 by bagging the National Award for Best Actor in his debut movie 'Mrigaya', made by Mrinal Sen.
In Ashim Samanta's 'Don Muthuswamy,' Mithun plays the role of a reformed don. How Muthuswamy's life goes for a toss after he relinquishes his notorious career of crime is, in essence, what the movie is about.
A comedy, it is Mithun's eighth movie for Samanta's banner. Although the banner has produced over 65 movies so far, 'Don Muthuswamy' is only its second comedy in four and a half decades since it produced 'Naughty Boy' starring Kishore Kumar and Kalpana in 1962.
Mithun said his role in 'Don Muthuswamy' constantly reminded him of Krishan Iyer MA, the character of a bungling don he played in Mukul Anand-directed 'Agneepath' 18 years ago.
When Ashim had gone to meet Mithun in Ooty with the story idea of a reformed don, he had planned to fashion the character after a Mumbai don.
Though the movie was being planned as a comedy, Mithun refused to play a Mumbai don. So, Ashim had to give the character a Tamil identity.
But does Mithun enjoy playing comic characters?
'Well, I am an actor. So I should be able to play all kinds of roles. It's true that I have not worked in many comedies. But I enjoyed playing 'Don Muthuswamy'. In fact, having lived in Tamil Nadu for long, I incorporated into the character some Tamil mannerisms I observed in some Tamil employees in my hotel in Ooty,' he said.
Mithun has a line-up of movies, which will keep him busy in Mumbai for at least two to three years. Some of these are 'Luck', 'Ghosla', 'Phir Kabhie', 'Zindagi Tere Naam', 'Chandni Chowk to China' and 'C-Company'.
'The characters I am playing in these movies are the kinds that I had never played earlier. I am surprised that I am being offered to play these at this stage. I want to specially mention 'Phir Kabhie', being jointly produced by Ronnie Screwvala and Pradeep Guha. I am playing a 60-year-old man opposite Dimple Kapadia in this movie,' the actor said.
He said though he would give cent percent to the movies to make his second innings in Bollywood as successful and fulfilling as the previous one, he would shoot only 25 days in a month.
'The rest five days I will devote to my hotel in Ooty, which has a 450-strong staff and needs my attention and guidance,' he said.
Ever since he shifted to Ooty in the mid-1990s, Mithun had refused to come down to Mumbai to shoot for his movies. The producers, who had signed him, had to plan their shooting schedules as per the actor's convenience until recently.
While in 'Don Muthuswamy' Mithun plays a comic character, in his soon-to-be released Bengali movie 'Ekti Nadir Katha', directed by Bollywood art director Samir Chandra, he emotes a diametrically opposite character, proving his versatility.
After almost 35 years in filmdom since he debuted in 'Mrigaya', acting has now got into his skin. He had also set a new dancing trend in his 1983 movie, 'Disco Dancer'.
'Disco Dancer', in fact, became his son Mimoh's day school for dancing when he grew up. The student is now threatening to prove one up on his teacher.

Book recounts Russian penchant for Indian films
Mumbai: We always knew about Russia’s love for Indian cinema, but now there is a book that has finally answers to all the whens, whys and hows behind this fan following.
Leave Disco Dancer Alone is a book that documents the impact of Indian Cinema on Russia especially in the post-Stalin era.
Though, it may sound boring to some, the book is filled with interesting trivia about how the first Indian film festival in Russia was organised in 1954, screening films like Aawara and Andhiyan, with millions of people in attendance, to film articles and posters of Indian films in Russian.
That only goes to prove that language is no barrier when is comes to Indian films. Based on first-hand research, the book analyses the reason behind this rage. The socialist films of that era and their idealistic heroes struck a chord in the Russian heartland.
Actors like Raj Kapoor, Nargis, Durga Khote (м-дя... только наиболее продвинутые российские поклонники инд. кино смогут восстановить в памяти, ХТО это вообще...), Sharmila Tagore, Amitabh Bachchan, Mithun Chakraborty and many more, were just as loved in the land of the Soviets as they were in their motherland.
But if you think Indian fans were crazy, actor Mithun Chakraborty, who appears on the cover of the book sets you right. “They (Russian fans) are crazier (ТОЧНО!!!!!!!!!),” he said. “When Disco Dancer came out, it was a rage,” Mithun recounted. “I was really amazed, I thought there is a generation gap, but I was surprised that even today they are watching this film.”
So, if you want a glimpse of the Russian craze for Indian cinema, you can pick up this book straight off the shelf.
А вот и титульный листочек книженции - ООООООЧЕНЬ показательный - РУКИ ПРОЧЬ ОТ ТАНЦОРА ДИСКО!!!!!! Даже Сталина не забыли - вплели...
Значит, книжка про то, как народ СССР безумно, фанатично и преданно обожал индийское кино. Но ОСОБОЕ впечатление на авторов произвела история сенсационного успеха ТАНЦОРА ДИСКО (да, мы - такие!!! ) Сам Митхун высказался в том смысле, что в Индии этот фильм не пользовался столь бешеной популярностью, как в СССР. Еще сказал, что был очень удивлен, узнав, что ТАНЦОРА смотрит нынешнее поколение Россиян! А ТО!!!!!!!!!!!

Mithun has to lose it... Author: Amul Sharma Date: 12 May 2008 ... because he plays Sallu’s dad in Veer
Mithun Chakraborty will play Salman Khan’s father in Vijay Galani’s Veer, directed by Anil Sharma. The role demands that Mithunda goes bare-chested for a major part of the film. As a result, the actor has to religiously work out till the movie goes on the floors in August.
Challenge hai
It is learnt that Mithun wanted to take up a challenge and Veer seems to be perfect for him. He has told the makers that he will hit the gym everyday for two hours to get the desired physique. The film also has him do a lot of horseback riding as well.
Director Anil Sharma says, “We have signed Mithunda to play Salman’s father in Veer. It is an extremely challenging role. He is supposed to get fit for the movie. Mithun has installed a lot of gym equipment at home to work out.”
Hunting locations
Veer, a period action flick, has been penned by Salman. A new girl will be cast opposite the actor. The producer and the director are currently in London location-hunting. Some British actors are also being signed for the project.
Митхун сыграет отца... Салмана... М-дя... При ВСЕМ уважении к Салману, это, ну, МЯГКО говоря... Разве что, как в KAALPURUSH, их герои будут как бы отстоять по времени. В этом случае - еще КУДА ни шло...

I Dont Want to Impress Anybody: Mithun

By VINITA CHATURVEDI
Life has come full circle for the man who started his career with an art film, and went on to become the original disco dancer of Bollywood.
Today when his own son has just made a debut in films and he is also awaiting his next solo release Don Muthuswamy after a very long gap, Mithun Chakraborty says that he has reached a point where he doesn't have to prove anything to anyone. NT gets up, close and personal with the versatile star.
Ask him about his role in Don Muthuswamy and Mithun says, "It's a rib-tickling comedy, which is about a mafia don who wants to mend his ways. Unfortunately, his troubles begin the moment he bids adieu to his Dongiri." After Shaukeen this is the first time he's doing a film, which is an out-and-out comedy. Was he comfortable doing this loud, comic role? "I have done more than 200 films and almost every film of mine had a dash of comedy, tragedy, action and romance. So, comedy is just another genre for me," says Mithun da. At this age, which are the actresses who look good with him? "I think Dimple Kapadia looks very good with me and our on-screen chemistry will surely be appreciated in our film Phir Kabhie, which will be released after a couple of months. My old friend Ranjeeta also looks good with me," says he.
And how does he rate his son Mimoh as an actor? To this he says, "His movie has just been released. He has a lot to learn from his seniors but as a dancer he's at least 25 times better than me."
With Raj thackeray and his band of boys pooh-poohing the role of 'outsiders' in Maharashtra, does Mithun feel insecure in the state? He answers this in a succinct manner: "I am obliged to Maharashtra for fulfilling all my dreams. I didn't even have food to eat and this place gave me everything that I have today. My head will always be bowed in front of this land, but it's a mutual compliment. I have also given my best to this place and nobody has a right to point fingers at me or others of my ilk. You give respect, you get respect."Ask him whether he has any plans to direct a film and he says candidly, "I have some plans but I will reveal them when the time comes." And will we also get to see Mithun da penning his autobiography sometime in future? "That's not my cup of tea. Those who want to make an impression write their autobiographies. And I don't want to impress anybody at this stage," says he.

What excites you more, playing a lead after a long time, or your son Mimoh making his debut in Jimmy?
I’m excited about my film Don… as I am playing a South Indian character after 18 years, but I’m tense about Mimoh as he is making his debut.
Did you not want to launch him?
No! Stardom is a pain and if you get it suddenly it can be dangerous. I wanted Mimoh to find his place under the sun himself, the way I had to fight for everything I achieved.
You are playing a title-role after a long time.
Yes, this is like a second coming and a very interesting phase of my life where filmmakers are once again writing roles keeping me in mind. In Don Muthuswami I play a hardcore don who on the advice of his dying father decides to change his lifestyle and image. Hilarious situations arise as he tries to transform himself from a don to Sir Muthuswami.
Your South Indian character sounds similar to the bungling don you played in Agneepath.
You can say it is an extension of my part in Agneepath! Ashim Samanta the director loved my character in that film and wanted to base it on him, so except for working on certain mannerisms like his gait and incorporating some Tamil mannerisms I observed in my staff in Ooty, I had to recall my role as Krishnan Iyer MA.
Hrishitaa Bhatt said that she found it hard to match up to your energy while shooting for an energetic dance number in the film.
The dance scene was for just one wedding sequence, otherwise it is not a dancing role but more of a comic character. As for my energy level I am an actor and conscious about my fitness. Anyway, as a dancer now you must watch Mimoh. He has his own unique style and is way ahead of me when it comes to dancing.
How is he as an actor?
It will take him a couple of years to even come close to me in that department!
So when will we see father and son together on screen?
Several producers have been wanting to cast us together, but I don’t think it is the right time as yet. Let him do a couple of films to hone his acting skills as I am sure he would not like to be overshadowed by me, though I will never be able to match up to his vigour!
What role do you dream about doing at this juncture?
I never dream of doing any roles. Instead I turn the roles I am doing into dream roles (ИМЕННО ТАК И ЕСТЬ!!!! ). At the peak of my career when I was known as a disco dancer I played Ramakrishna Paramhans in the film Swami Vivekananda and even got a national award for it!
You are hosting a television show Dance Bangla Dance Junior in Kolkata. Can we expect to see you as a judge on a Hindi show?
There is nothing in the offing….. but you never know!
The Bengal Football Academy was your brainchild, and now you have bought the Kolkata Tigers of the ICL team. Anything more on the sports front?
Kolkata is a city of sports, and I have always been a sports lover. Of course the idea to buy the team was not only because sports is a passion but from the business angle as well. My dream is to have my own club and I can see it materialising even if it is coming in a roundabout way!
How do you manage to look after your Monarch chain of hotels?
I have three hotels, one in Ooty and one in Mysore and Madhumalai each, then there is also a school in Coimbatore. I was attending to my hotel business when I took some years off from acting. Now I take off five to six days every month to attend to that business and then I am back in Mumbai for my shootings.
Will we see your wife Yogeeta Bali on the screen again?
You will have to ask her, though I find her quite content in looking after the family. My second son is keen on being a director but my youngest son is still undecided as to what he wants to do and my daughter is too young.
Your career seems to have taken off in a big way now.
I don’t know whether it has taken off in a big way but I have landed some interesting projects. I am playing a lawyer in Subhash Ghai’s Yuvraaj though it’s a cameo. In Chandni Chowk To China I have an action-oriented role, then there is Zindagi Tere Naam, Phir Kabhi , Ghosla, Ekta Kapoor’s C-Kompany, the action thriller Luck, and I also may be part of Salman Khan’s Veer. I must mention that in Phir Kabhi I play a 60-year- old opposite Dimple Kapadia.
How do you juggle all your activities?
I am an early riser and my day kicks off by playing with my dogs and other four-legged friends…yes, my house is like a mini-zoo. I do a bit of gardening to rejuvenate myself and then I am off for the day.

Why did you take a break from films? Every woman takes a break from her career at a certain stage in life. I started very young. So I called it quits when I left for the US. My son was small and he needed me. I did not want to miss out on his growing up years.
What made you say yes to Zindagi Tere Naam? Director Ashu Trikha sounded very convincing when he approached me. Working with Mithun (Chakraborty) after a long time was another draw. It felt as if I have never left the camera. Besides, my son has now grown up.
Would you have said yes, had you been paired opposite any actor other than Mithun Chakraborty? I might have said yes. But I would not have settled for any actor of lesser calibre (А ТО!!!!!!! ).
How excited were you about acting with him again? I can’t say that I was jumping with joy. At my age, I cannot do that. I was definitely thrilled for old time’s sake.
How was it shooting with him? It was great (ЕЩЕ БЫ!!!!! ). They had come down to Pune to shoot (Ranjeeta is currently based in Pune). We know each other since the FTII days and he is a dear friend. It’s almost as if we had grown up together. I have seen him in his good and bad days. He behaved with me just the way he used to do earlier. We shared a lot of light moments.
How confident are you of recreating the old Mithun-Ranjeeta magic on screen? That’s for the audience to tell. This film is not like our earlier successful films, Suraksha or Tarana. However, everything depends on a film’s show at the box office. When a film clicks, everything seems right and people say that the magic is there.
How are you feeling with the release date —May 30—nearing? I am not nervous. I have seen ups and downs. At the most I won’t get any more films. But then, I’m not here to make a career.
Tell us about your role. The film’s a mature love story and I play a lady who loses her memory. Her husband tries his best to bring it back.
After Zindagi Tere Naam, would you be doing more films? It all depends on the offers that I get. But I won’t lose any sleep if I don’t get any. I’m quite settled in life. I am relaxing, doing yoga.
Интервью с Ранджитой - 30-го выходит их с Митхуном ZINDAGI TERE NAAM
Mithun Chakbraborty is far from defeated by his son's tame debut and his own non-starter Don Muthuswamy that opened this week. Everyone's favourite 'Disco Dancer' and 'Gun Master G-9' from the 1970s Mithun Chakraborty is back in action. This is one of the busiest phases in the 70s' superstar's career.
And one of the roles he's doing requires him to threaten Ekta Kapoor! "That's right," laughs Mithun-da. “I've a seriously funny role in Ekta Kapoor's C Kkompany. I play this small-time don called Dattu Satellite who has a fascination for TV artistes. I even go and warn Ekta Kapoor against torturing her TV artistes. I'm having so much fun with varied characters. I enjoyed playing a funny gangster in Don Muthuswamy. Imagine a Bengali playing a South Indian don! I've played a South Indian before in Agneepath."
It was a very emotional journey down memory lane for Mithun-da when he met up with his steadiest and most adored co-star Ranjita Kaur in Pune some time ago. Says the emotional actor, “I met Robby in Pune very recently. She lives there now. Together we visited the Pune Film Institute where my whole journey as an actor began. I went to touch and kiss the number on the room where I stayed. It was a very emotional journey."
Mithun-da gets sentimental about all his co-stars. "I was friendly with all my co-stars. I've worked with all of them from Rekha to Shabana to Zeenat to Parveen. I even worked with Sharmila Tagoreji in a Bengali film directed by Uttam Kumar where she had a double role with me and Uttam-da."
Filmmakers are today willing to write roles especially for Mithun-da. "I've just finished Phir Kabhi with Dimple Kapadia and Rati Agnihotri produced by Culture Company and UTV. It's a very different love story about a happily married man whose first love returns after his wife dies. His grand-daughter plays Cupid. My character keeps talking to his dead wife. I've done a lot of films with Dimple. She's a pal. And she's given a great performance."
Mithun-da is partial about his co-stars. "Robby (Ranjeeta) and Padmini Kolhapure were my very favourite co-stars and buddies. Padmini drifted away after she got married. But Robby and I are still buddies. You'll be surprised to see we still fight like we used to." The pair featured in over a dozen films in the 1980s. Among them, Tarana and Surakshaa were big hits. Now the 50-plus pair is coming back together. "Ashu Trikha's Zindagi Tere Naam brings me and Ranjita Kaur together after many years. It was an extremely nostalgic experience for both of us. Interestingly, there's a flashback where two youngsters who look like us will play our parts."
And Mithun-da's 'Gun-Master' days are not over. In his last release My Name Is Anthony Gonsalves he played newcomer Nikhil Dwivedi's guru. "I played a Catholic priest. But he was no ordinary priest. I didn't only preach. I also fought. In the end, I showed the protagonist my martial arts skill to fight injustice. It was a very interesting role. The director E. Niwas is a very good friend of mine. And the debutant Nikhil Dwivedi is unconventional, just like I was when I came in." As for Mimoh, "He'll fight his way to his destiny. No one can stop him."
Митхун Чакраборти далек от того, чтобы переживать поражение после неудачного дебюта его сына и провала его собственного фильма DON MUTTHUSWAMI, который вышел на прошлой неделе. Всеобщий любимец из 70-х годов (??????????? – мужик, видимо, не в курсе, что ТАНЦОР вышел в 1983-м) «танцор диско» и «стрелок G-9» Митхун Чакраборти снова в деле. Сейчас в кинокарьере суперзвезды 70-х (и СНОВА я ВАЛЯЮСЬ от хохота!!! ) один из наиболее активных периодов.
И одна из исполняемых им ролей потребовала от него угроз в адрес Экты Капур! «Это правда», - смеется Митхун. – «Я вам серьезно говорю – это очень смешная роль в C KKOMPANY Экты Капур. Я играю забавного дона по имени Дату Спутник (в смысле, спутниковое ТВ), который является сумасшедшим фанатом телевидения и артистов, которые там работают. Я даже отправился к Экте Капур и потребовал под угрозой расправы, чтобы она больше не мучила своих подопечных на ТВ. Мне неизменно доставляет огромное удовольствие работа над подобными ролями. Мне также понравилось играть уморительного гангстера в DON MUTTHUSWAMI. Только представьте себе – бенгалец, играющий роль тамильского дона! Я уже играл южноиндийца в AGNEEPATH».
Когда Митхун некоторое время назад встретил в Пуне свою постоянную и обожаемую партнершу по ранним фильмам Ранджиту Каур, это стало для него эмоциональной встряской – воспоминания нахлынули с новой силой… Растроганный актер говорит: «Я встретил Робби в Пуне совсем недавно. Она теперь живет там. Мы ведь вместе учились в киноинституте в Пуне, как раз тогда, когда моя актерская карьера только начиналась. Я пошел в общежитие только для того, чтобы дотронуться и поцеловать номер комнаты, где я когда-то жил (все-таки, слава Богу, так до конца жизнь и не «вытравила» эмоциональность и ранимость… )… Эти воспоминания очень волнующи…»
Когда речь заходит о его партнершах, Митхун говорит с чувством: «У меня всегда были прекрасные дружеские отношения со всеми моими партнершами (ЕСТЕССССНО!!!!! И не только, я полагаю, дружеские! ) Я работал чуть ли не со всеми – от Рекхи до Шабаны Азми, Зинат и Парвин. Я даже пересекался с Шармилой Тагор в фильме на бенгали, который ставил Уттам Кумар, где она исполняла две роли – со мной и Уттамом».
Сегодня сценаристы и режиссеры пишут сценарии и снимают фильмы в расчете именно на Митхуна. «Недавно мы закончили работу над фильмом PHIR KABHI с Димпл Кападия и Рати Агнихотри, продюсерами которого выступили Culture Company и UTV. Это очень нетрадиционная история любви о счастливом в браке человеке, встречающем свою первую любовь после смерти жены. Его внучку играет Купид (??? ХТО такая??? ). Мой герой даже после смерти жены разговаривает с ней… Я работал с Димпл над многими проектами. Она очень хороший мой друг. И сыграла она просто потрясающе».
Вместе с тем, Митхун достаточно пристрастен в отношении своих партнерш. «Робби (Ранджита) и Падмини Колхапур были моими лучшими партнершами и отличными друзьями. Падмини ушла из кино после замужества. Ну, а с Ранджитой мы до сих пор поддерживаем дружеские отношения. Вы не поверите, но мы до сих пор спорим на съемочной площадке, как это бывало прежде!» Эту пару зрители могли видеть в двух десятках фильмов в 80-х годах. А TARAANA и SURAKKSHA стали настоящими хитами. Сегодня пара «за 50» снова на экране. «Фильм Ашу Трикхи ZINDAGI TERE NAAM свел меня и Ранджиту на одной съемочной площадке спустя много лет. Ностальгические чувства охватили нас обоих. Замечу, что в фильме есть и молодая пара – в каком-то смысле, наши герои, но много лет назад».
Кстати, золотые дни Митхуна, когда он снимался в таких фильмах, как SURAKKSHA, не канули в Лету! В одном из последних по времени своих релизов MERA NAAM ANTHONY GONSALVES он играет духовного наставника «новичка» Никхила Двиведи. «Я исполняю весьма необычную роль католического священника – это не какой-то «сухарь», читающий проповеди. Я также и боец. В финале фильма я демонстрирую своему подопечному приемы рукопашного боя, дабы восстановить справедливость. Это была очень интересная роль (но, зараза, ООООООЧЕНЬ маленькая!!!!!!!! ). Режиссер фильма Нивас – очень хороший мой друг. А дебютант Никхил Двиведи своей нестандартной для киногероя внешностью мне напомнил меня самого в начале карьеры». Что касается Мимоха, «он будет сам пробивать себе дорогу в жизни. И ничто его не остановит (дай Бог! )»

My chemistry with Mithun will once again mesmerize audience – Ranjeeta
Laila Majnu famed Laila alias Ranjeeta is again back, after a long span, to the screen with Ashu Trikha’s Zindegi Tere Naam.
And the interesting part of the name is that the actress is promising to offer her life to none but her old screen-aasique Mithun Chakraborty. Let us know the reason and little more about the film from the veteran actress herself…
Q. Was there any especial reason behind accepting this film? A. Yeah, there were actually lots of reasons behind accepting the film. The proposal for the film came to me at a time while I was completely free. I thought I had accomplished my responsibilities towards my son very well. Then I could think about some time for myself. The character offered to me was really good and along with that character Ashu Trikha was another reason behind signing the film. I had experience of working with his father also.
Q. What’s most unusual about this flick? A. It’s my character. It’s really excellent. Audience will surely enjoy several shades of acting through this character. I think these all elements are enough to make the film interesting.
Q. The film is based on romantic love story. What would you say about the love story? A. I am quite excited that my comeback in films is happening with love story. In Bollywood, love stories have always been playing the role of true magician.
Q. The tagline of the film says, “Har mahan prem ke pichhe mahan kahani hoti hai (every great love has a great story to tell)”. How do you relate to this line? A. To many aspects. I am from the age of romanticism. So no one can understand love better than me.
Q. How are you enjoying your comeback? A. I am feeling really good. Truly speaking I am feeling like I have never left it behind. I am feeling no difference posing in front of the camera after such a long span. Generally people get very nervous giving their first shot but there was nothing like that for me.
Q. What would you like to say about your new co-stars? Have you ever given them any tips? A. They all are very professional, understanding and well acquainted with today’s working environment. As far as providing tips is concerned, who am I to tips them? Everyone learns from his or her own experience. Even I also learned everything from my directors. I am really lucky for having chance to work with all the good directors from the very beginning on my career.
Q. Audience has witnessed you and Mithun in few superb movies. How do you have your expectations from this film? A. It’s completely dependant on the audience. But I have complete faith in the film. As, you know, actors usually have from each of their flicks.
Q. Talking about chemistry, will we have chance to witness chemistry between you and Mithun? As though, chemistry covers lot in a film. A. Absolutely. It’s only chemistry on screen that works. Lack of chemistry between characters can never attract audience. And I have complete faith in my and Mithun’s chemistry to work again in this film.
Q. Have you signed any other film? A. No. I’ll sign more films but depending on nature of offers I get.
Q. What’s your expectation about characters from Bollywood? A. I would love to portray all those characters that despite being of my age have some interesting aspects in them. I feel, a character, whether it’s of sixteen year’s or of hundred, will always be a character.

Mithun's soccer association triggers war in CAB Kolkata, July 24 - Bollywood actor Mithun Chakraborty's foray into local soccer has become an election issue in the Cricket Association of Bengal -, with the dissidents owing allegiance to former president Jagmohan Dalmiya demanding action against an affiliate unit close to the ruling group for getting associated with the Indian Cricket League -.
A day after Mithun's ICL team Royal Bengal Tigers signed a five-year sponsorship agreement with Kolkata's first division soccer club Howrah Union Wednesday, the Dalmiya loyalists accused the CAB of 'double standards' as it had banned senior Bengal cricketers for inking deals with the Zee-promoted ICL.
'They have shut the doors of the Eden dressing room on players like Deep Dasgupta and Avishek Jhunjhunwala. These players are not allowed to play for Bengal. How can they look the other way when the Howrah Union has entered into a tie-up with a team that is a participant in the ICL?' asked Dalmiya camp general secretary and former Board of Control for Cricket in India - joint secretary Goutam Dasgupta.
He said the matter would be raised with 'full force' in the July 29 CAB annual general meeting, where Dalmiya would take on incumbent Prasun Mukherjee for the president's post.
'It's a good election plank for us. There is a BCCI directive that an affiliate unit can't have any truck with an association or individual related in any way with the ICL,' Dasgupta told IANS.
The ruling group and the Dalmiya-led opposition are locked in an intense battle for control of the CAB, and have put up rival candidates for every post.
The BCCI-promoted Indian Premier League - and ZEE's ICL are rivals.
The BCCI came down hard on the ICL last year, even going to the extent of stopping pension and other facilities to former stars like Kapil Dev, Erapalli Prasanna, Sandip Patil and others who joined ICL.
What has irked the dissidents more is the fact that Howrah Union general secretary Indranath Dey is a CAB vice-president who is seeking re-election with support from the ruling faction.
However, Mukherjee brushed aside the allegation. 'This is a non-issue. CAB is concerned with cricket. Why should we bother about soccer?'
Dey said he had not violated any BCCI norm. 'Our arrangement is with a separate company floated by Chakraborty, Royal Bengal Sports'.
But the release given at the Bollywood star's media meet Wednesday night clearly spelt out ICL's involvement. 'Mithun scripts ICL booster for West Bengal sports,' said the heading.
Besides, it had quotes from Himangshu Mody, business head of ICL.
The release quoted Mithun as saying: 'The announcement - cements my association with ICL...'.
As part of the deal, the Royal Bengal Sports would provide support to Howrah Union for infrastructure building, player recruitment and also training facilities.
Mithun is also scheduled to visit Portugal and Mexico to recruit foreign players.
The association would begin in the next 2008-09 season.

Durga Puja rights sold to US company Press Trust of India Friday, August 08, 2008, (Kolkata) Taking corporatisation of Durga Puja festival to a new height, a prominent puja committee in Kolkata has sold the rights of the celebrations to a US company and roped in a Bollywood superstar as its brand ambassador.
The entire expenses of the Badamtala Ashar Sangha Puja in south Kolkata will be borne by the US company 'Media Morphosis' which will promote it in the media and the web.
This marked a departure from the practice in vogue in which a puja committee would get different sponsors, but itself manage the resources.
In another trend-setting move, the organisers have got superstar Mithun Chakraborty to endorse the puja which has been creating waves over the years for its aesthetic novelty fetching it several prizes.
"We had thought about Mithunda since he is one figure closely linked with Kolkata and the popular tinsel celebrity is liked by people from all over the country for his friendly image."
"We all know how much he is involved with the city. And once we approached him and explained our idea, his response was positive," said Subhajit Sarkar, an executive committee member of the club.
Chakraborty, who had left the city when the community Durga pujas were celebrated in a more conventional format with little thought spared on themes, had been keenly following the changeover to more corporate-oriented theme-based celebrations for the past one decade.
«Митхун Чакраборти продолжает съемки фильма «Don Muthuswami» несмотря на высокую температуру»
В момент съёмок Митхун болен, у него высокая температура, но он продолжает съёмки фильма «Don Muthuswami», тем самым Митхун Чакраборти спасает от многих неприятностей, Кинокомпанию «Fifty-plus» и режиссера Ашима Саманту (Ashim Samanta). По словам Ашима Саманты у Хришиты Бхатт и Рохита Роя были назначены даты съёмок другого фильма, то они не могли задерживаться на съёмках фильма «Don Muthuswami». В противном случае Мы думали, что мы должны будем создавать дополнительный съёмочный график и новые даты съёмок, а это могло задержать выход фильм как минимум на месяц», добавил Режиссер. На второй день съемок Митхун чувствовал недомогание от высокой температуры, но к всеобщему удивлению, актер сумел продолжить съёмки и на третий день. Проработав на площадке в течение 14 часов непрерывно, Митхун был все еще очень слаб, но он всё-таки завершил съёмки. Свою работу Митхун выполнил безупречно. Это история о маститом преступнике, которого играет Митхун Чакраборти. По совету умирающего отца, его герой Don Muthuswami решает изменить свой имидж. Бомбей News.Net пятница 11 апреля 2008

Ранджита: «МОЯ ЛЮБОВЬ С МИТХУНОМ СНОВА БУДЕТ ЗАВОРАЖИВАТЬ ЗРИТЕЛЯ»
Лейла Маджну(Laila Majnu) знаменитый псевдоним Ранджиты она снова вернулась на экран после длинного промежутка в фильме Ашу Трикхаса (Ashuu Trikha’s) “ Zindagi Tere Naam” Интригующее название фильма, сюжет заключает в том, что героиня Ранджиты готова пожертвовать своей жизнью ради героя его роль играет Митхуна Чакраборти. Ранджита, почему ваша героиня идет на такую жертву, и расскажите немного о фильме, нам бы хотелось услышать это непосредственно от вас…. Корр.: Что побудило Вас принять предложение сниматься в этом фильме? Р.: Да, на самом деле имелось много причин принять это предложение. Основная причина в том, что предложение о фильме я получила в тот момент, когда я была свободна. Свободна в том плане, что я выполнила мои обязанности по отношению к моему сыну в плане его воспитания. И тогда я могла располагать каким-то временем непосредственно для меня. Роль, которую мне предложил Ашу Трикхас, была на самом деле замечательной, но была ещё одна причина, по которой я не могла отказаться - когда-то я работала с его отцом. Корр.: Что вам кажется необычным во всём этом? Р.: Это - моя роль, она многогранна Это действительно превосходно. Конечно, зрители будут наслаждаться моей героиней и это замечательно. В фильме есть всё, для того, чтобы он был интересен зрителю. Корр.: Фильм основан на романтичной истории любви. А что Вы можете сказать о любви? Р.: Я очень взволнована, что мое возвращение на экран произошло в фильме о любви. В Болливуде истории о любви всегда были в «роли фокусника». Корр.: В финале фильма сказано; «Каждая большая любовь заслуживает того, чтобы о ней рассказали». («Har mahan prem ke pichhe mahan kahani hoti hai») Что Вы об этом думаете? Р.: Много чего. С возрастом я становлюсь всё более романтичной, так что никто не может понимать любовь лучше, чем я сама. Корр.: Как Вы наслаждаетесь вашим возвращением в кино? Р.: Я прекрасно себя чувствую. По правде сказать, у меня такое чувство, что я не уходила из кино, за моё долгое отсутствие здесь ничего не изменилось, вообще люди очень волнуются перед началом первой съёмки, у меня же не было никакого волнения. Корр.: Что Вы можете сказать о молодых актерах, с которыми вам пришлось работать в фильме «Zindegi Tere Naam»? Вы давали им какие-то советы, наставления? Р.: Они все очень профессиональны и они очень хорошо со всем справились. Кто больше был заинтересован в советах так это я, здесь каждый учится на собственном жизненном опыте. Я тоже училась у своих режиссеров, на самом деле мне очень повезло, я работала с замечательными режиссерами с самого начала моей карьеры в кино. Кор.: Зрители видели не очень много стоящих картин, где вы снимались с Митхуном, что вы ждете от этой картины? Р.: Всё будет зависеть от зрителя, но я очень надеюсь на успех! Корр.: Теперь поговорим о любви. Зрители смогут увидеть на экране ваше взаимопонимание с Митхуном – как по-вашему, эта любовь, она присутствует только в фильме? Р.: Абсолютно. Мы сыграли эту любовь. Без любви нельзя привлечь внимание зрителя. Я верю в нашу любовь и могу сыграть ее снова. Корр.: У Вас уже подписан следующий контракт? Р.: Нет. Я буду подписывать контракты, но всё будет зависть от того, о чем будет фильм. Корр.: Что вы ждете от «Болливуда»? Р.: Я хотела бы сыграть содержательные роли, несмотря на мой возраст, я «чувствую роль» в любом возрасте. SAMPURN
Каждая женщина делает перерыв в своей карьере в какой-то момент её жизни, ведь я начала сниматься в кино, когда была ещё очень молодой девушкой. Это произошло в тот момент, когда я уехала в США, тогда мой сын был ребенком и мне нужно было воспитывать его, мне хотелось быть с ним, когда он рос.
Что заставило Вас сказать «да» на предложение работать в фильме «Zindagi Tere Naam»?
Ашу Триха был очень убедительным, когда беседовал со мной по поводу этой картины. Снова работать с Митхуном Чакраборти – это притягивало меня. Я чувствовала, как будто я и не прекращала работу в кино. Кроме того, мой сын теперь вырос.
Вы сказали бы «да» если бы в этом фильме играл другой актер вместо Митхуна Чакраборти?
Конечно. Но я не согласилась бы работать с любым другим актером, если б он был не таким известным, как Митхун Чакраборти.
Вы были очень взволнованы, когда снова оказались с Митхуном на съёмочной площадке?
Не могу сказать, что я прыгала от радости, в моём возрасте я не могу позволить себе такого, конечно, я была немного взволнована – вспомнилось прошлое.
Как работалось с Митхуном?
Великолепно. Съёмки проходили в Пуне, (там я живу). Мы знакомы с киноинститута, Митхун дорог мне как друг, можно считать, мы вместе выросли, мы вместе радовались и огорчались. Он вел себя со мной сейчас также как и раньше. Мы пережили вместе много приятных моментов.
Вам удалось обновить сейчас на экране прежнюю игру вашей пары: Митхун-Ранджита, что скажите?
Нет – это всё как раз таки наоборот, я хочу предупредить зрителя: этот фильм не имеет ничего общего с нашими старыми фильмами SURAKSHA и TARANA. Когда фильм выходит на экран, кажется, что всё идет как надо - зритель приходит в восторг, однако, все зависит от того, какой у него будет кассовый сбор.
30 мая 2008 выходит Ваш фильм - какое чувство возникает у Вас с приближением этой даты?
Я спокойна. Я испытала в жизни подъёмы и падения. Самое худшее - я не получу больше контрактов, и тогда я не смогу продолжить работу в кино.
Расскажите нам о своей роли в фильме «Zindagi Tere Naam»
Фильм о большой любви, а я играю женщину которая, забыла об этой любви. Ее муж пробует всё возможное, чтобы вернуть женщине эту любовь.
После Zindagi Tere Naam, Вы продолжите работу в кино?
Если будут другие контракты, всё дело в этом, я попытаюсь этого добиться. Но я не буду переживать, если ничего не получу. Я неплохо обеспечена, и буду заниматься йогой. Sudipto Shome 19 мая 2008г.
Уже прачитала спасибо большое за тваю работу ты умничка

«Митхун Чакраборти покровитель киноакадемии им. Пхальке»
С этого момента Митхун Чакраборти является постоянным покровителем киноакадемии им. Пхальке. Члены киноакадемии очень известные люди, такие как Santosh Singh Jain, Govind Swaroop, Pahlaj Nihalani, Sanjay Patel, Sangram Shirke, Neena Jalan and Ram Gopal Gupta. Все члены киноакадемии, а, также включая Chandra Shekhar, Jagdish Sharma и Ram Mohan приняли Митхуна Чакраборти в своей резиденции и, после продолжительной беседы утвердили план праздника дня рождения Пхальке, а также по случаю презентации киноакадемии 5 апреля 2008г.
P.S. Дхандирадж Говинд Пхальке (Dhundiraj Govind Phalke) – родился 30 апреля 1870г. в Насике в ортодоксальной индусской семье. С детства он проявлял интерес к искусству и всякого рода ремеслам. На пасху 1911 ему довелось увидеть фильм «Жизнь Христа». Пхальке был в восторге от увиденного и в собственном воображении он ставил на место Иисуса Христа бога Кришну. Пхальке мечтал о фильмах на темы индийской мифологии. Пройдя через множество препятствий – его мечта сбылась, кропотливый труд Пхальке был вознагражден, фильм «Раджа Харишчандра» (Raja Harishchandra) его премьера состоялась в «Коронейшен» 8 мая 1913 года принесла ему всемирную известность. Это был первый игровой фильм в Индии.

А мне очень нравится статья "В память о прошлом". Было безумно приятно читать вот эти строки, когда я переводила статью: Цитата: "Митхун дорог мне как друг, можно считать, мы вместе выросли, мы вместе радовались и огорчались". Поверьте мне на слово - НАСТОЯЩАЯ ДРУЖБА ДОРОГОГО СТОИТ! МИТХУНУ ЭТО ХОРОШО ИЗВЕСТНО, я думаю, им было о чем вспомнить.

Mithun: A paradoxical Phenomenon By: Dr. Usman Khawaja
India is a very mysterious land and it is also just as varied. You have more than 100 languages and as many racial equivalents. In a land so rich it is absolutely impossible to find any chance of agreement on any single issue.
The query here is who would be crowned the best star actor in this culturally rich diversity. The names that spring to your mind are many. There is Sanjeev Kumar, Amitabh Bachchan, Rajesh Khanna, Kamal Hassan, Dilip Kumar and finally Mithun Chakraborty, not to exclude Uttam Kumar the predecessor king of Bengali cinema.
Now no one can deny they need to see how the racial question divides India. The northern Indians have never accepted either Bengali or Southern male stars, whatever the persona or talent. While Hema Malini,`Vyjanti Mala and Sharmila Tagore have ruled the box office, no one other than Mithun from regional cinema has ever made into the top three coveted male star positions, as far as box office is concerned never mind the artistic merits of Pyar Jukhta Nahin and Disco Dancer, they were super hits.
Mithun Chakraborty defies this so called bigotry as he was born of regional cinema and then despite his Bengali accent and looks, became one of the top most star in mainstream Bollywood without having to resort to the charity or support of Yash Chopra or Ramesh Sippy.
Rajesh Khanna and Amitabh Bachchan made their super hits and all the quality movies with Sippy’s or Chopra’s. In this way Mithun is a paradox and enigma, as he was labelled a poor man’s Amitabh, despite Jaya Bachchan saying in 70s that he was more talented than Amitabh Bachchan and that is on record.
Now looking at the resume no other actor has a movie like Mrigaya-The Royal Hunt, and no one ever will have the courage either in Hollywood or Bollywood to attempt that, in fact it seems to have inspired Apocalypto, it’s a tribute to Mrinal Sen, Mithun Chakraborty and Mamta Shanker, which is unique in the world of cinema, even if you disregard the three national awards he won on the basis of his talent, rather than by influencing the jury’s like Hum Tum and Black, which has become rife today, in fact national awards have become a joke in last few years, but he and Sanjeev Kumar won them when they were genuine.
Hum Tum was a second rate version of Harry Met Sally done by a second rate Sharukh Khan copycat Saif Ali Khan, who landed a national award just as Amitabh Bachchan did in Black, a copy of Miracle Worker the great movie about Helen keller from the 60s, if anyone deserves an award in black it’s the child artist who some how managed a natural performance despite the pretentiousness which engulfed black. How this award was attained only god can answer that question or the jury.
Mithun Chakraborty has proven himself in multi-starrers like Ghulami opposite Dharmendra and Naseer Uddin Shah and in Hum Paanch too, where he was the best again. But also he has the versatility to play a romantic hero as in Prem Pratigya one of the best romantic movie on Indian screen opposite Madhuri Dixit, and that is what deserves to be called a love story, not the designer monstrosities that the Chopra’s make in the name of love.
I have yet to see Amitabh Bachchan play a romantic lead himself convincingly. In Kabhi Kabhie and Silsila all he did was frowning and brooding over lost love, in Bemisaal and Jurmana he was angry , name one love story like Aradhana or Amar Prem or Safar where any emotion of love has been ever been expressed by him convincingly in any movie. He was the angry young man of the 70s and had comic timing and his physique suited action roles, which were very popular in the 70s and 80s, but name any great love movies and you, come up with zilch; Kabhi Kabhie belongs to Rakhee, Shashi Kapoor, Sahir and Khayyam.
There is no doubt whatever anybody says about Mithun Chakraborty’s dancing talent. He was the best and still is the best dancer Hindi screen has produced. Whether it is ethnic or disco dancing he has always been superb. Just watch him in Zeehale Muskin the song from Ghulaami or song from Disco Dancer. They are all done by him stylishly and flawlessly. Kamal Hassan can dance but Rajesh didn’t even try neither did Dilip sahib, as for Amitabh Bachchan he copied the steps from Albela and Mootilal in every movie, at least he has the grace to admit it, but look at it today, Hrithik is the best now and he can do about five steps which he repeats in every movie hilariously.
Mithun chakraborty was never cast by big movie houses he had to content himself with the so called B- grade cinema, yet he made gems like Ghulaami, Prem Pratigya, Gudia and Jallad.
His bilinguality is another asset, while no one can deny the richness of Bengali cinema and its diversity, no Hindi actor has contributed to that, but Mithun has to Hindi cinema, that’s a compliment to him and an asset for Hindi cinema.
The only other actor from India to rival him is possibly Kamal Hassan with Sadma and Ek Duje Ke Liye but his movies have never got the popular Bollywood appeal and he only appeared in a handful, unlike Mithun Chakraborty who is still working in Hindi mainstream like Elaan and Chingaari, despite Mani Ratnam and Amitabh Bachchan trying to discredit him in Guru he still managed too give the best performance in the fist half. The second half is comprehensible to only people who have no clue as to how a screenplay should be written as the journalist of Madhavan and Mithun chakraborty totally disappear in the second half which was a paradox in itself, as the script seemed to indicate the movie was a battle between the immoral industrialist Guru and the honest journalists Madhavan and Mithun Chakraborty.
To glorify Abhishek Bachchan, Amitabh Bachchan had to dub this incompetent actor very shabbily, in an awfully unrealistic speech from a stroke ridden man, Amitabh Bachchan didn’t even give any consideration to the fact that a man suffering from a stroke would be dysphasic or stutter or stammer, he went on his Baghban like sermonising while Mr Ratnam, the director has been left to be a laughing stock at the expense of the Bachchan's, I wonder what Mr Ratnam’s got to say for himself as I believe Mithun Chakraborty has raised some serious accusations about his role being ripped off, which is obvious as he and Madhavan are absent from the court scenes all together, what an idiosyncrasy and how convenient for the Bachchan’s.
I feel more sorry for people like them rather than Mithun who has a rich resume with movies like Gudia which were in competition in Cannes (not a single other stars has that merit,) and Titli which again won numerous international awards world over. While Gudia and Titli might not set the Indian box office on fire, their artistic merit like Mrigya-The Royal Hunt is unquestionable.
Finally can I inform you that in 1987 a Russian magazine voted Mithun Chakraborty as one of the sexiest men on the planet, I think the only other actor is Dharmendra who was voted so by Italians in the 70s. So much for the North Indian bigotry as to Mithun as a second rate to Amitabh Bachchan, in fact I would think Mr Bachchan should take a bow to Mr Chakraborty and learn a few things from Mrigaya, Gudia and Titli rather then keep making second rate remakes of Hollywood classics like Miracle Worker and godfather as Sarkar and Black, after all it is originality which is immortal rather then even a master fake.
I hope this is not taken as a racial or linguistic comparison. I am talking of the talent of an individual rather than creed or religion, language or age.
После фильма «Minister Fatakeshto» Митхуна уже давно не видно на экране. На этой неделе он наконец-то появился в фильме (Poila Baisakh) Поила Баисакха - «Satyameva Jayate». Митхун расскажет о том, чем же он был занят все это время….
Вы не работали в южно-индийских лентах за эти последние 6 месяцев...
- Я действительно был очень занят в Мумбае. Там были очень стоящие фильмы, поэтому я не мог работать в южно-индийских фильмах, «Satyameva Jayate» - мой первый фильм в этом году.
Чем именно Вы были заняты в Мумбае?
- Ну, я работал во многих фильмах. Удачная работа с Санджаем Даттом, «Из квартала Чандни Чоук до Китая» с Акшаем Кумаром, (фильм выйдет на экран 16 января 2009 г.). Есть на UTV’s «Phir Kabhi» с Димпл Кападия, «Zindagi Tere Naam» с Ранджитой, но до сих пор не вышел на экран. Также «Ghosla» и «Don Muthuswamy».
«Satyameva Jayate» о чем этот фильм?
- Фильм о справедливости. Есть поверье, что 2000 год – это конец эпохи Кали (жестокости) и начало эпохи сатъя (истины). Сюжет фильма заключается в том, насколько правдиво такое поверье, или же это вымысел. Я играю полицейского по имени Винайяк, он борется за правосудие, преодолевая множество испытаний в жизни.
Эта роль соль сильно отличается от министра Фатакешто?
- Да, очень отличается от M.L.A. Фатакешто и Министра Фатакешто. Почему, по-вашему, я должен играть одинаково? Это было бы ошибкой, если бы Винайяк был чем-то похож на Фатакешто. Фатакешто – сейчас кумир, а «Satyameva Jayate» - совсем другая история. Для меня каждый фильм отдельно, не похож один на другой, потому что сыграть роль в каждом из них – это совершенно разная работа.
Всё это время вы не работали в южно-индийских фильмах из-за того, что «Minister Fatakeshto» не похож на «MLA Fatakeshto»?
- Ничуть. Разве могут две роли быть одинаковыми? Если один фильм удачен по всем параметрам, то работа в следующем должна быть сделана также, как Вы все можете задавать такой вопрос? почему я хотел работать во многих фильмах в прошлом году, причина была в том, что я хотел показать, что работа даже в региональных фильмах может доставить массу хлопот.
В фильме «Satyameva Jayate» Вы работайте с двумя новыми актрисами?
- Да, Прия Даршини и Тания. Они обе были участницами конкурса бенгальского танца «Zee Bangla's Dance», Прия Даршини будет в роли журналистки, а Тания – подруга злодея.
Почему Ваш выбор пал именно на этих девушек?
- Я чувствую это, они обе прекрасно танцуют. Когда я приступаю к отбору, я всегда ищу что-то необычное в человеке. Обе девушки смогут сыграть свои на роли. Точно также я присмотрел когда-то Шильпу Широдкар и Мадхури Диксит, после её кинопроб. Я работал с ней во многих фильмах «Prem Pratigya», «Mujrim», «Elaka» and «Pyar Ka Devta». Я помню, режиссеры были против «моего выбора», но я знал – Мадхури ждет успех!
Что-нибудь готовится новенькое из фильмов на бенгали?
- Да, есть кое-что. Планируются съёмки нового фильма, но у него пока нет названия. Режиссер этого проекта Харанатх Чакраборти. Фильм комедийного жанра. Работа над фильмом начнется после того, как я закончу с фильмами на хинди.
Model turned actor, Dino Morea has not been able to make it to the big league after delivering a super hit like Raaz way early in his career. Presently he is looking forward to his two back to back releases, Karzzzz and Heroes hitting the screen soon.
"The audience baffles me even today. You never know what they really like or what will excite them. One has to just keep on working hard. For me all that is important is to work with good banners and I am doing right that," Dino says.
Dino is very excited about Heroes. "It is because this is the first time I worked with Mithun Chakraborty. It is the story of a father and son and Mithun Chakraborty plays my father in the film. Mithun is still a rock star even today. He has so much experience in life today. It just made me do better. In fact, it is challenging to work with stars who are so experienced. I use the nuances when I get a chance to do. I had a great time shooting with him. He used to often entertain us with anecdotes from his life and experiences in the industry."
Elaborating more about Heroes, Dino adds, "It is about the life of people from different regiments of the army. The story is told through two boys who go on a mission. I play an Army officer in the film. I was completely floored by the script when Samir Karnik narrated it to me. I went on my bike to Ladakh and interacted with family of army officers. It felt good wearing the army uniform which reminded me of my younger days. I grew up in Bangalore MEG Officers colony. We often interacted with the army officers. I like the way they talk or even hold their glasses. They are always proud of their nation. I delivered as much as I could with my observations."
About Karzzz, Dino reveals. "I am reprising the same role that Raj Kiran played in the original. It doesn’t have much of screen time, must be probably just a 5-10 minutes role. I basically did this film as a favour."
Dino also has Sanjay Gupta’s Acid Factory on floors. "Acid Factory is an action thriller. I have not signed too many films presently. But I am in talks with three good banners now. I am waiting for good opportunities. I don’t want to throw my career away at this moment. Banners are my only concern now." Dino concludes.

The Tiger who inspired Bengal
Owner Mithunda is the tour de force behind Sunday’s facile victory over the fancied Lahore Badshahs, admits captain McMillan
HYDERABAD: Bollywood Badshah Mithun Chakraborty, who has a stake in the Indian Cricket League’s (ICL) Royal Bengal Tigers, has been the sole motivating factor for the boys ahead of Season II.
If captain Craig McMillan is to be believed, Mithunda was the man who inspired the boys during their 8-wicket win over Lahore Badshahs on Sunday evening. “His presence made a lot of difference… It was fantastic to get such a big Bollywood star around us… Mithun is not only a star of India but a star of international repute,” is how McMillan described Royal Bengal Tigers’ owner after the boys defeated the much-vaunted Badshahs in a canter.
On his knowledge of Mithun films, McMillan was sharp and to the point. “No I haven’t seen much of his films but I knew about him for a long time. I will surely watch his movies in the next few weeks,” McMillan promised.
“He really is a lucky champ for our side and I hope his presence will help us win more matches in the tournament in the near future,” the New Zealander felt.
But Mithunda, in his turn, gave all credit to the captain, coach and the players who had done the hard rounds. “Cricket is a game of luck and we were lucky to have performed superbly on the ground on Sunday,” the superstar said, congratulating all the members of the side for such a scintillating victory. Mithun stressed on the fighting spirit that he has managed to inject into the players. “I have always said that the fighting spirit is the main factor in anything you do… During the match I was tense and I was fighting to maintain my calmness, but ultimately the boys came out with flying colours,” he said. “I don’t know much about the nitty gritties of the game, but one thing I had told them is to give their 100 per cent, a win or loss doesn’t matter,” said the evergreen actor.
On the prominent yellow-and-black scarf around his neck, the actor said that it was the style statement for the Royal Bengal Tigers. After winning the first match, the Bengal Tiger promised to bring more stars to cheer the team in the next round of matches.
“Salman (Khan) is shooting in London and so he will not be available, but I will try to get Dino (Morea), Sohail Khan, Vatsal Seth, Riya Sen and many others probably during the matches in Ahmedabad,” Mithunda informed DNA before leaving for Lucknow.

Tollywood lines up foreign shoots, raises production budget
Pradipta Mukherjee / Kolkata October 15, 2008, 0:29 IST
Tollywood is finally gearing up to add gloss to Bengali movies with around four movies slated for release by early next year being shot in foreign locales including Singapore, Berlin and Austria.
These movies have a budget between Rs 65 lakh and Rs 3 crore, with the scenes shot in foreign locales making up around 20 - 30 per cent of the overall production cost.
Production houses like Nishpal Films, Moxie Entertainment, and Mumbai Mantra, the film production wing of Mahindra and Mahindra, are investing in youth-centric movies with a part of the shoot in foreign locales to add to the glamour quotient.
“While most Bollywood movies are shot in America or Europe, we are making ‘Mon Maane Na’, a romantic story of two young people, which we thought of shooting in Singapore. It also works as a marketing strategy,” pointed out producer Nishpal Singh.
The Dev and Koel Mullick starrer Mon Maane Na has a budget of Rs 1.5 crore. The Singapore shoot investment worked out to Rs 20 lakh. The movie was shot in Jurong Bird Park, Orchard Road and Clarke Quay in Singapore.
Likewise, ‘Shukno Lanka’, a Mumbai Mantra production, will be shot in Berlin. The movie stars Mithun Chakraborty and Roopa Ganguly, who along with other crew members will be at Berlin in November ahead of the Berlin International Film Festival. ‘Shukno Lanka’ has a budget of close to Rs 2.5 crore, and the shoot in Berlin will make up for 20 per cent of its overall production costs.
A third movie is ‘Lakshyabhed’, which is in post-production phase now, was shot partly at Pattaya in Thailand. The movie has a budget of Rs 65 lakh and the Pattaya shoot worked out to almost Rs 5 lakh.
Movie ‘Bhalobasha Bhalobasha’, made with a budget of Rs 3 crore, was shot in Salzburg in Austria, a locale made famous after the movie ‘The Sound of Music’ was shot there. The Austria shoot cost Rs 23 lakh.
According to producer Ashok Dhanuka, “We wanted to shoot a dream song in a dream-like location. So we chose Austria.”
Фильм на бенгали с Митхуном и Рупой Гангули будут снимать в БЕРЛИНЕ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

'I'll put my money on a bigger game’ 23 Oct 2008, 0000 hrs IST, TNN
From stardom to displaying the fervour of a businessman, yesteryear superstar, Mithun Chakraborty is making moves to rake in the moolah.
That he holds a stake in an ICL team is known to us. What made him sponsor the team? Mithun says, “I am a sportsperson and support any sport that is promising.”
Ask Mithun what does the term ‘promising’ means in his dictionary and his reply’s surprising, “Money. There’s crores involved in the game of cricket, particularly. In cricket when the stake is high, even the revenue that we generate out of it is very high.”
After making big bucks in the hospitality industry in Tamil Nadu, Mithun’s quest to seek more from the market hasn’t been quenched as he admits, “All I mean is business. And when I saw tremendous potential in the T20 module, I came forward to bet on it.” Mithun is equally passionate about football as well. “I also hold a stake in a football team called Howrah Union,” he continues.
His plans to coin and deliver stratagems seems to spillover to other sports too. “I would not like to disclose which other game I will put my money in. But mark my words, I certainly will bet on a bigger and even more promising sport,” he confesses.
The six thinking hats principle, it seems is working magnificently well in case of Mithun. Business apart, he is continuing to do movies too. “I have seven movies in the pipeline including the forthcoming movie Heroes, starring Preity Zinta.” Ask him if cricket crept into the film set with Preity representing his arch rival, Mithun says, “These are two different ball games and our interests do not overlap.”
Mithun further adds that he has taken meticulous efforts to design the wardrobe of his team and is all praise for his team. “The coach of my team is a tiger and the captain is a tiger too. My team is indomitable as we have players like Craig McMillan and Hamish Marshall.” And he is enthusiastic about the team anthem too. “Listen to that. It has all the high octane notes of a typical Led Zeppelin number,” he says.
When it comes to the game, Mithun feels the game itself speaks volumes and it’s precisely the same philosophy of thought that he applies to acting too.

Preity Zinta, Dino Morea, Sohail Khan, Riya Sen and Vatsal Seth are gung ho about director Samir Karnik's Heroes, a unique tale about the spirit of the Indian armed forces personnel and their families
Sohail: I was completely floored when Samir narrated the script of Heroes to me.
Dino: You are right! It blew my mind as well. The script was the sole reason for eleven actors to agree to do the film! It was not only the message that the film would put across to the audience, but also how well each character was conceived, that moved each one of us, including senior actors like Mithun Chakraborty, Salman Khan, Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol.
Vatsal: The thread is the army and Samir has captured the never-say-die spirit of our armed forces and their families, through Sohail and me. Two thoroughly spoiled brats, travel on their mobikes to meet these families for the film they are making for their filmmaking course.
Riya: My respect for these officers went up by leaps and bounds after working in Heroes. And I am sure it will have the same impact on the audience.
Vatsal: 100 per cent! People will definitely be touched by how not only the officers but their close ones too are so heroic.
Riya: Like Preity who plays an army officer's (Salman Khan) wife. She is shown to be a woman of substance who holds the family together when her husband is away on duty.
Preity: Not only that, I also drive a tractor in the fields!
Sohail: I know, you looked grand sitting there! But tell me was it tough to drive that heavy-duty vehicle?
Preity: Not really, we were shooting that portion in Punjab and the locals taught me how to sit on it and drive it. But more intriguing than that was acquiring the mannerisms and body-language of a rural Punjabi woman.
Dino: I believe you attended Anupam Kher's acting school for that.
Preity: Yes. Since Anupam Kher belongs to that part of India, he was familiar with the body-language of the people living there. He prepared me really well to play Kuljeet Kaur and playing her part was a learning experience.
Dino: I worked on my character of an army officer by recalling the officers, I had observed when growing up in Bangalore. I kept in mind their straight and proud walk, how they nursed their drinks and the way they spoke.
Sohail: You were perfect for the role. The audience will enjoy the camaraderie between you and your army officer father, played by Mithunda. It's a very unique combo.
Dino: It was the first time I was working with him. Saying that he is a great actor and that I learnt a lot from him would be like stating the obvious. What I discovered is that he is a rock-star in real life. When we were shooting in Ladakh we would hire motorbikes after pack-up and head to the city to visit the monasteries. After that it would be a meal at a local restaurant. It was great fun.
Vatsal: What Mithunda would do for me was really touching. Knowing that I am a vegetarian and there was always a dearth of vegetables in Ladakh he would pick up bhindis and potatoes whenever he saw them in the market and stir up some scrumptious dishes for me. He would also make sure that Sohail who is into fitness had his share of his daily proteins.
Riya: I cannot get over the Badmash launde party number in which you and Sohail act as strippers. The audience is going to drool over that one.
Vatsal: They should, after all two great-looking guys doing the strip-tease! And Riya you are a very quiet person, who smiles a lot, in real life. I like the way you executed your character who is so talkative.
Riya: It's all thanks to Samir. He had spent a lot of time developing the characters. He was very clear about what he wanted from all of us and that made it very easy.
Vatsal: Yes, Samir made playing our characters easy, but I had to work on my looks. My character is older than I am, so I grew my hair and stubble and of course, talk and behave in a more mature fashion. I also had to learn how to ride the bike. Sohail is a biker and was so good with the machine. I could balance it after two falls!
Sohail: You were also pretty nervous on the first day of the shoot. Even though we were in Ladakh, I could see you were sweating.
Vatsal: You are right! But you helped me get over it very fast!
Dino: Both of you shared a great chemistry.
Sohail: We all did. I also liked the rapport Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol shared as brothers serving the Air-Force. And how Salman bhai and Preity look fabulous as the Sikh couple. I am impatiently waiting to see the audience reaction to Heroes!
Saying that he is a great actor and that I learnt a lot from him would be like stating the obvious. What I discovered is that he is a rock-star in real life

Thursday, October 23, 2008 Mithun revels in team effort
AHMEDABAD: Sourav Ganguly may be bidding adieu to international cricket but he still has two years of cricket left in him, observed Bollywood star and Royal Bengal Tigers’ owner Mithun Chakraborty.
Mithun was in Ahmedabad to cheer his team against hosts Ahmedabad Rockets on Wednesday.
“Ganguly has announced his retirement but I feel he has a couple of years left in him. This is a very graceful exit as he has scored a century in the last Test series of his career,” Mithunda said.
On if he intends to bring Ganguly into the team, Mithun said, “He has been a great cricketer and a very good ambassador of the game… I would love to make him part of my team but it is difficult.”
The Royal Bengal Tigers’ owner actually enjoys the longer versions of the game. “T20 is very entertaining and a tricky game and I am thrilled by it. But Test matches have lately added a glamorous chapter in the history of Indian cricket,” Mithun said, referring to India’s thumping victory over Australia. Interestingly, the actor enjoys watching Ricky Ponting batting.
“I am a big fan of Kapil Dev, Sunil Gavaskar and Ponting,” Mithun, who patronises Howrah Indian Football Club in Kolkata, said.
Meanwhile, happy with his team’s performance in the ongoing ICL, Mithun said, “I believe in giving hundred per cent and they are doing that. I won’t praise an individual because it has been a total team effort. I am satisfied with my captain (Craig McMillan) and coach (Daryll Cullinan). I hope they carry on their form till the very end.”
However, he felt teams like Chennai Superstars, Hyderabad Heroes and Chandigarh Lions are favourites too. “Hyderabad, Chennai and Chandigarh have very good players and are capable of winning.”
Mithun acknowledged crowd support and infrastructure. “This has been a wonderful outing. I guess the best ground I have seen. The atmosphere has been very good in and outside the stadium,” he signed out.
New Delhi, Oct 25 (IANS) Some stars never age. Actor Mithun Chakraborty is one of them. In the capital to cheer his Indian Cricket League (ICL) team, the Royal Bengal Tigers, which played the Dhaka Warriors in Gurgaon Saturday, the actor showed that he was still a do-it-yourself daredevil and stuntman at 58 - even if it meant a few cuts and bruises.
Mithun hurt himself while jumping off a helicopter while shooting for the film “Luck” in Durban in South Africa and injured his hand.
“I jumped from a helicopter without realising that the safety mat had been displaced and there was a boulder. I crashed on it,” said the actor, just out of the hospital after a minor surgery - with his hand in a sling and bruises on his brow. УРОДЫ!!!!!!!!!!!! Не могут даже надлежащую безопасность обеспечить!!!!!
“I am on sedatives. There was a blood clot but I ignored it in South Africa. The wound worsened and I went to a clinic after landing in Mumbai and removed it. Everyone thinks it’s easy to be a movie star, but it’s tough being a hero,” he told reporters Saturday.
Mithun plays a senior army officer with Sanjay Dutt in “Luck”, directed by Soham Shah and slated for release next year.
“I have 12 movies awaiting release this year, but you must watch ‘Heroes’ in which I play a very interesting character of a father. You must watch ‘Heroes’,” the actor said.
“Heroes”, directed by Samir Karnik, is being billed as one of the most inspiring movies this season.
Mithun feels that today’s stars have an edge over the older crop of action heroes, who had to perform several stunts themselves. “Moviemaking in Bollywood is technically more advanced now with more safety nets. Today’s action heroes are well-protected,” he said.
The actor is also part of several projects in the Bengali movie industry. “Two movies that I am working on at the moment are ‘Sukno Lanka’ (Dry Chilly) and ‘Handa-Bhonda’ with Aritro Dutta Banik, the tiny star of Zee TV’s ‘Dance Bangla Dance’,” Mithun told IANS.
“Tollygunge is making great movies. Talent abounds in the Bengali movie industry,” he said.
The star is also promoting the Bengal Football Academy, along with the Bengal contingent for the ICL.
“I must begin with little things now and then move on to bigger projects in Bengal,” said the actor, for whom both “cricket and movies are all about luck”.
Asked about his most enduring performance in a recent film, he said, “I have put in my best for ‘Ekti Nodir Galpo’ (Story of a River).”
The movie, directed by samir Chanda, is based on a story by Bengali novelist Sunil Gangopadhyay.
“I am on sedatives. There was a blood clot but I ignored it in South Africa. The wound worsened and I went to a clinic after landing in Mumbai and removed it.
Бедный! Боже мой, нельзя же так относиться к своему здоровью!

HEROES: When laughter landed Mithun in hospital!
October 27, 2008 1:15:50 PM IST Abid, Bollywood Trade News Network
We all know that Mithun Chakraborty played the role of a laughing don in DON MUTHUSWAMY but it will be amusing to know that he had a bad laughing experience during the shooting of Samir Karnik's HEROES!
As per Mithun Chakraborty himself, during the Uttarakhand shooting schedule of HEROES, Sohail Khan and Vatsal Seth went berserk while relating some hilarious jokes to him. Infact, Mithun's laughter became uncontrolled, so much so that his heart beat got affected and he had to be taken to a hospital! (Молодцы, ниче не скажешь! )After that Mithun told Sohail and Vatsal (jokingly) that from next time onwards they must make him cry rather than laugh!
Well, we are quite sure that after seeing the good to decent opening of HEROES (that released last Friday), that too during the normally dull pre–'Diwali' phase, Mithun da must be smiling, if not laughing!

‘I am a workaholic’ Mithun on why he will do all kinds of films as long as they satisfy his soul.
For one whole year, Mithun Chakraborty has been missing from Tollywood. But a flop or two in Bengal can’t keep the Mahaguru in Mumbai or Ooty (where he lives) for long. He will be back this winter to shoot three Bengali films, back-to-back. Mithunda tells t2 why he loves masala films that need him to play the messiah time and again...
Did you quit Tollywood after Minister Fatakesto and Satyameva Jayate failed at the box office?
Not at all. I still believe that Bengali films have the potential to do very good business and I have proved so with my films. I have delivered hits every year. There’s Mahaguru, Tiger, Tulkalam, MLA Fatakesto. I will always do Bengali films.... It’s just that I was concentrating more on Bollywood. I have 10-12 Hindi projects in hand.
So you will be seen less in Tolly now...
See I don’t know that. Now I will do films that will satisfy my soul. The script has to stir my soul. It can be a masala film, an art film, an action film or anything else. The script needs to be very close to my heart.
Are the three Tolly films you are planning to do close to your heart?
Definitely. I am in talks with Prabhat Roy for his Hari Om. I need to adjust my dates. The film is about environment pollution and how my character fights against it. In Subhankar Chatterjee’s Handa Bhonda, I have teamed up with Aritro, the little host of Dance Bangla Dance. We play father and son. It’s a very sweet story and I know I will enjoy doing the film. Then there’s a very interesting film called Shukno Lanka by Gaurav Pande. I play an extra artiste, who dreams of making it big some day. It’s a beautiful script and we start shooting from this month. I am really excited about my role. The script is close to my soul.
Your roles are different from what you do usually...
That’s because I am an actor and I need to satisfy my creative instincts. I need to satisfy my hunger with roles that satisfy my actor’s ego. Sometimes, I want to dust off the rust after doing masala films. That’s why I do a Kaalpurush or a Shukno Lanka.
Are you trying to break out of your action-hero image?
No. In fact, I want to do maarbo-ekhane-laash-porbe-shashane-type roles. People spend money to watch me in these roles. The films in which I deliver such dialogues and beat up goondas draw maximum crowd to the theatres. I am not going to give them up easily. I will continue to do them and mouth heavy-duty dialogues. It will be a mistake if I try to avoid playing such characters. Mithun Chakraborty doesn’t have any fixed image. I don’t believe in image. I have done all kinds of roles. Otherwise, my work wouldn’t have fetched three national awards. People call me a superstar, megastar, an actor par excellence, a legend. There’s nothing left to achieve in life. Success, money, awards, respect, fans — I have everything. But I am a workaholic and I can’t sit at home, (ЭТО ТОЧНО!) though now I am home due to an accident that happened while I was shooting a helicopter sequence for Luck. I jumped from the helicopter and my hand hit a rock that I hadn’t seen. I am just waiting to put on the greasepaint again.
Which films are you working on in Bollywood?
There are lots.... Heroes with Salman Khan and Preity Zinta has just released. There’s Phir Kabhi opposite Dimple Kapadia, Zindagi Tere Naam with Ranjeeta, Zor Laaga Ke… Haiyya with Riya Sen, Luck with Imran Khan, Chandni Chowk to China with Akshay Kumar, Yuvvraaj with Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif, Veer with Salman Khan and Sohail Khan.... Talks are on for other films too.
With so much in hand, when do you get time for cricket?
I am very involved with my team (Royal Bengal Tigers for ICL). I think we are doing well as a team.
Во во! С них давно пора за моральный и физический ущерб содрать! Я представляю, если б дедушку Б так уронили, всех бы на кол посадили, не иначе, а тут - тишина, типа сам навернулся, сам и лечись, даже не извинился никто!

О, да! Кстати... У меня вот отношение к нему такое... Мне гораздо больше нравится то, что он сейчас легенда, суперстар и самый очаровательный мужчина на свете! То, что было тогда... в СССР ... Меня как то... наверное потому что меня тогда еще не было... И меня это менее интересует... Все эти доводы...

Ну я не знаю, просто сейчас он лучше чем был, он сейчас ... очарователен! ... Как кто-то там вякал... у Баччана сексуальность в глазах... фи! У Митхуна помимо глаз еще и тело сексапильное!

«Митхун получает травмы, но обходится в кино без каскадеров»
Митхун Чакраборти доказал, что он все еще в состоянии быть сорвиголовой и каскадером даже в свои 58 лет, даже если это и влечет за собой синяки и ушибы. Он один из немногих актеров, кто может в столице, приветствовать свою индийскую Крикетную команду, «Королевские бенгальские тигры», в субботу они играли как войны Дхакка. Митхун получил травму на съёмках фильма «Удача» в Южной Африке – спрыгивая с вертолета, актер повредил руку. «Я спрыгнул с вертолета без подстраховки безопасности, и циновки внизу тоже не оказалось, я «приземлился» на камни. Я получил травму руки и рассек бровь, пришлось обратиться в больницу. Сейчас я принимаю болеутоляющие лекарства. На брови был комок крои, но я не придал этому особое значение, находясь в Южной Африке. По возвращению в Мумбай рана не заживала, и мне снова пришлось обратиться в больницу, чтобы обработали рану». В продолжении разговора Митхун сказал; «Вы думайте легко быть «кинозвездой» - на самом же деле это очень непросто В фильме «Удача» (реж-р Soham Shah) Митхун играет офицера полиции. В фильме также занят актер Санджай Датт. Выход фильма намечен в следующем году В этом году должны выйти на экран 12 моих фильмов, но вы должны очень внимательно присмотреться к моим героям, я играю отцов, они все очень интересные на мой взгляд Фильм «Герой» (реж-р Samir Karnik) на него возлагаются большие надежды в этом сезоне.
Митхун чувствует скованность молодых актеров в исполнении каких-либо сцен или трюков, когда они вместе стоят перед камерой. По словам Митхуна техническая часть в создании фильмов в Болливуде заметно усовершенствовалась, стал выше уровень безопасности, и актеры хорошо защищены во время съёмок. Митхун Чакраборти также снимается в бенгальских фильмах. Как сказал сам Митхун: “Два кинофильма, в которых я работаю в настоящее время, - ‘Sukno Lanka’ ( сухой холод), и 'Handa-Bhonda' с Aritro Dutta Banik , это очень маленькая звездочка на «Zee TV’s ‘Dance Bangla Dance». IANS Митхун сказал «Tollygunge» делает великие кинофильмы. В бенгальской промышленности кино большое продвижение вперед».
Митхун Чакраборти также продвигает бенгальскую Футбольную Академию, наряду с бенгальским контингентом для ICL. Я должен начинать с малого и мало-помалу идти дальше, к большим проектам в Бенгальском кино, сказал актер, для которого и крикет и кино являются талисманом на удачу. Спросив о его наиболее трудной, но уже выполненной работе в недавнем фильме «Ekti Nodir Galpo» (История Реки) фильм режиссера Samira Chanda основан на истории бенгальского писателя Сунила Гангопадхайя. Митхун сказал: «Я вложил в этот всё самое лучшее».

"ЗНАЧИТЕЛЬНАЯ ПОМОЩЬ МИТХУНА ДЛЯ МАЛЕНЬКОЙ АНАНДИТЫ"
“Я думала, что лишилась единственной опоры в жизни, когда убили мою дочь Анандиту. Но Бог послал мне много добрых людей и они готовы помочь моей внучке Ахане“. сказала Пурнима Госвами, убитая горем мать. Анандита Мишра 34 года получила смертельное ножевое ранение от своего сослуживца 32-летнего Джекоба Пинто. На сегодняшний день Д. Пинто арестован.
Взволнованный тяжелым положением пятилетней Аханы, которая находится в состоянии шока после смерти своей мамы, кинозвезда Митхун Чакраборти предложил финансовую помощь семье маленькой девочке. Пурнима Госвами сказала: «Митхун-джи сказал мне, что он был весьма обеспокоен сложившимся обстоятельством, а именно состоянием маленькой Аханы, актер искренне сожалеет, что ребенку пришлось через это пройти». А также добавила, что помимо помощи Митхуна ещё несколько высокопоставленных лиц и граждан предложили ей свою помощь, в том числе СМИ, новость о случившемся и о состоянии её внучке была выдвинута на первый план.
Нумеролог Санджей Джумани, у которого несколько VIP персон в Болливуде, сказал: «Одна из ведущих кинозвезд, (она не хочет называть своего имени), обещала большую сумму денег на лечение Aханы.
На праздник Дивали мы вместе с моей женой побывали у Аханы. Девочке стало трудно дышать, пришлось прибегнуть к ингалятору, чтобы очистить дыхательные пути ребенка. Спустя какое-то время, Ахана открыла глаза и посмотрела на свою бабушку, и чуть-чуть улыбнулась, по словам Санджая Джумани это хороший знак. Он также добавил, что такие актеры как Шахрукх Каришма и Анил Капур, и другие влиятельные люди, также заверили, что они готовы вложить немалые денежные суммы, чтобы помочь девочке. А также, Баба Рамдев обещал прислать доктора, чтобы тот смог осмотреть девочку. И мой друг из Дубайи дал мне 50 000, чтобы я передал их на лечение Аханы, добавил Санджай Джумани.
В студии звукозаписи известный певец пообещал, что во время прямого эфира на частном канале новостей, он выступит с обращением к медицинским работникам, чтобы найти для Аханы сиделку, чтобы она круглосуточно присматривала за девочкой.
Заместитель специального уполномоченного отдела полиции Р Д Шинд сказал, что полиция Мумбая получает множество откликов от простых граждан о том, как они конкретно готовы помочь Aхане и ее бабушке.
