Known
for
the
original
disco
dancer,
Mithun
Chakraborty
made
the
nation
go
crazy
with
his
signature
pelvic
thrust
dance
move.
Not
just
the
dance
floor,
the
veteran
actor
ruled
the
hearts
for
decades.
But
it
wasn't
easy
for
Mithun
da
and
the
man
had
to
go
through
his
share
of
struggles.
Recently
the
Pyaar
Jhukta
Nahin
actor
recalled
his
hardships
from
his
struggling
days
when
he
was
moved
by
the
story
of
a
contestant's
struggle
on
the
sets
of
the
reality
show
Hunarbaaz.
It
so
happened
that
one
of
the
contestants
Akash
Singh
from
Bihar
broke
down
after
performing
on
the
stage
for
the
first
time.
He
recalled
living
under
a
tree
in
a
park
when
he
came
to
Mumbai
as
he
had
no
place
to
stay
and
spoke
about
how
he
practised
his
stunts
on
trees
and
poles
on
streets.
On
hearing
this
Mithun
also
walked
down
the
memory
lane
and
shared
his
own
story
to
motivate
Akash.
The
actor
said
that
initially
he
had
decided
to
take
up
villain
roles
as
he
thought
that
no
one
would
cast
him
as
a
hero.
The
Golmaal
3
actor
also
recalled
dancing
at
big
parties
for
food.
"I
thought
no
one
would
cast
me
as
a
hero,
hence
I
decided
to
become
a
villain
and
that
too,
a
dancing
villain.
I
used
to
walk
to
work
so
that
I
could
save
money.
I
used
to
dance
at
big
parties
because
I
would
get
food
to
eat,"
Mithun
said
on
the
show.
Talking
about
Hunarbaaz,
the
show
hosted
Bharti
Singh
and
Haarsh
Limbachiyaa
will
feature
rappers,
stand-up
comics,
acrobats,
magicians
and
others
coming
on
the
show
to
display
their
talents.
Besides
Mithun,
the
show
will
be
co-judged
by
Karan
Johar
and
Parineeti
Chopra.
Coming
back
to
Mithun
Chakraborty,
the
actor
will
next
be
seen
in
Vivek
Agnihotri's
The
Kashmir
Files.
