00:00Hi, I am Mithun Chakraborty and you are watching Lehering.
00:03Now, I'm going to insult you very much. Sorry.
00:06They want to see myself my mistakes.
00:09I want to see who I am good and who I am bad.
00:12And learn from my mistakes.
00:14I played a dance.
00:16I couldn't sleep for three nights.
00:18I thought, let's take a look at my first picture.
00:20Why not impress the audience?
00:22So, it will be a rehearsal.
00:24Then, when the take came, the work of the take was okay.
00:26But, after it was okay, I accidentally dropped my right leg.
00:31That's why my whole right leg was broken.
00:34And I was scared that I could ever take the leg or not.
00:38I can't say anything about GB.
00:40Because I am not the producer.
00:41It is Navan Malik, Salman Manik.
00:43Director is Rajan Sipri.
00:45So, don't ask me.
00:46Sir, how many tips have I given in Moko, acting and dancing?
00:50I haven't given any tips.
00:52I told him that he is a...
00:54If you can see, he is a very tall guy.
00:57And the people who are tall,
00:59He dances on the whole body.
01:01He doesn't have a voice.
01:02So, I taught him to dance on his toes.
01:05If you can dance on your toes, you are a good dancer.
01:08So, he did it.
01:09If you can talk about it, you will learn a lot about acting.
01:16So, how much help did Mithun dance?
01:22Mithun, Chakravarti, as a father,
01:25He has always been with me.
01:27He has always helped me.
01:29He has always helped me.
01:30Why do I do it?
01:31Why do I do it?
01:32Why do I do it?
01:33Why do I do it?
01:34Why do I do it?
01:35Why do I do it?
01:36Why do I do it?
01:38Why do I do it?
01:39If you want to say about Mr. Chakrabarti, he never did any of this.
01:44Because he is very professional and practical.
01:47He never came to the set.
01:49He never came to me.
01:52He only talked to him with the Raja sir.
01:56Because he wants to see his mistakes.
01:59See who I am good and who I am bad.
02:02And learn from his mistakes.
02:04Because he is a better actor.
02:07And he also has become himself.
02:10And he also wants to become himself.
02:13Because he wants to say that I am a newcomer.
02:17I am a star kid and I am not special.
02:20My name is not an attraction.
02:24But beyond that, I am just a normal newcomer.
02:27So as a father, of course, he has taught me a lot.
02:31He has worked for my dance.
02:34He has danced with my hands.
02:37He has danced with my hands.
02:38Then, he has danced with his hands.
02:40So, you can know that he has worked as a father.
02:44He has taught me how to speak.
02:47He has taught me how to move.
02:49I have taught me how to move my toes and move my toes.
02:52So definitely it was very difficult for me, but as a father, of course, but as an actor, nothing.
03:04You saw him in the work, where did you go?
03:08No, no. That day you told him that you wouldn't have coffee. Not even me.
03:13The title of the film is Jimmy.
03:17He told me that this is a brand name. You can give this name.
03:25I'll give it to him.
03:27As an actor, what do you think about Mimo?
03:32Past. I'll give you past.
03:36What are the expectations of this film?
03:39I'll tell you about it.
03:41What are your expectations?
03:43Really, I'm a very practical man.
03:46I can't say anything. I can't say anything.
03:48I'll give it to him.
03:49I'll give it to him.
03:51Jimmy, I don't think that the responsibility has increased.
03:53Because when someone comes to a star,
03:57people compare him to his father or family members.
04:03He has to give it to him.
04:05He has to give it to him.
04:07If everyone is hoping that he is a child of Mithun Da,
04:10he should also be able to see those things.
04:12Definitely, I'm a very big fan.
04:15Because it's natural that people compare me.
04:18Because if I go and see a star kit,
04:21I'll start comparing them to him.
04:24I'm not a different person.
04:26I'm a star kit.
04:28Definitely.
04:29And because I'm a child of Mithun Chakravarti,
04:31I'm a big fan of Mithun Chakravarti.
04:32I'm a very difficult person in comparison.
04:34Because they all come.
04:36Whether they're fighting,
04:37whether they're dancing,
04:38whether they're acting,
04:39whether they're acting.
04:40So, I have to do a lot of effort from their shadows.
04:45Because of course,
04:46I'm not perfect now.
04:47This is my first film.
04:48And you can see,
04:49whatever film industry has come,
04:51they've improved a lot from the first film.
04:56Because it's like that.
04:58And I just hope,
04:59that the audience going to the gym,
05:01they'll see Mimu.
05:03Without watching Mithun Chakravarti Sun,
05:05they'll see me.
05:06Because as an individual,
05:08I'd like to have a mark.
05:10Because,
05:11as I said,
05:12as you said,
05:13that I had to do more work.
05:15That's true.
05:16As if we've done 20 days for a song,
05:19then we've done that responsibility for 20 days.
05:22Because I know that
05:24people will come and see me
05:26that reason for me.
05:27Because I'm so good
05:28and so bad in my dancing.
05:30And that's why I want people to see Mimu.
05:34Because I have not.
05:35My dance directors,
05:37my fight directors,
05:38my director,
05:39we've all worked on this film.
05:41And as much as we've made it,
05:43we've made it so good.
05:45So, I just hope,
05:47that it will be good.
05:48Sir,
05:49we've got a big deal.
05:50Sir,
05:51I've got a big deal.
05:53So,
05:54what do you think
05:55that Mimu is a great deal?
05:57What's going on?
05:58Okay.
05:59This is the thing.
06:00I'm saying,
06:01I'm saying,
06:02that I'm not going to anyone,
06:04nor I'm going to anyone,
06:05nor I'm going to Mr. Malik,
06:07that they have signed me.
06:08They have signed me.
06:09And I told them,
06:10I've told them,
06:11I'll go to any photo,
06:12I don't even know your photo.
06:13He's going to audition for it.
06:14He's doing it.
06:15He's doing it today.
06:16I'm not going to do it.
06:18I don't have any questions.
06:19Life is not made of roses.
06:21I'm not pampered,
06:22I'm saying,
06:23I'm saying,
06:24my son is good,
06:25I'm not going to do it.
06:26I'm not going to do it.
06:27What about your father's family relation?
06:29We are very good friends.
06:30There's only one problem with my son,
06:32I don't have to invade him in meditative times.
06:35He's invading him in meditative times.
06:37I'm looking for an acting course.
06:40I went to America.
06:42I went to my acting course
06:44at the New York Film Academy.
06:45I went there.
06:47I went there.
06:48I did a crash course.
06:50Then I learned dancing.
06:53I learned fighting.
06:54Then I went to Mumbai,
06:57I learned acting course.
06:59Then I learned classical dancing.
07:02I learned kickboxing,
07:03horse riding,
07:04fighting.
07:05So,
07:06I learned so much.
07:07Let's see.
07:08What is a perfect film for a debutant according to you?
07:12What qualities are acting?
07:14He should have all the qualities of stardom.
07:16What sort of film have in particular?
07:19I said all the qualities to be a star and the stardom.
07:25What do you decide now?
07:28Let's talk about Pooja.
07:29Pooja is a new star.
07:31It's a debut film.
07:32How do you work with her?
07:34How perfect is her acting?
07:36Actually,
07:38Before I said about her acting,
07:40her name has changed.
07:41Actually,
07:42Pooja has become Vibana.
07:44So, if I say Pooja,
07:45I will be very angry.
07:46So,
07:47Vibana,
07:48of course,
07:49is a very good actress.
07:50And,
07:51he is also very good.
07:52He is very humble,
07:53sweet, caring.
07:54And,
07:55our wavelength was the same.
07:57Jimmy was the same.
07:58Because,
07:59as my first film is,
08:00Vibana is also the first film.
08:01So,
08:02we both wanted to make our mark,
08:05and make our identity.
08:07So,
08:08if you ask me about acting,
08:09it's better than me.
08:10Because,
08:11they have more experience.
08:12And,
08:13as much as our scenes,
08:15I think,
08:16it's more ease in acting.
08:18It's true.
08:19Because,
08:20Jimmy is our film.
08:21And,
08:22it's not true that I will say
08:23that I am good with him.
08:24Because,
08:25I know how many rehearsals have done.
08:26And,
08:27how many rehearsals have done.
08:28And,
08:29how many rehearsals have done.
08:30So,
08:31definitely,
08:32it's better than me.
08:33Sir,
08:34what's your music?
08:35In the film,
08:36I feel good.
08:37This song,
08:39the title song,
08:41and,
08:42I think,
08:43two songs.
08:44In the gym,
08:45there are four songs.
08:46There are two songs.
08:47There are two songs.
08:49And,
08:50there are two Bappa Larry.
08:51So,
08:52Bappa Larry,
08:53there is a song with Bappa Larry.
08:55My uncle has done it.
08:56And,
08:57now,
08:58his son is making music in my first film.
08:59So,
09:00life goes full circle.
09:01So,
09:02I think,
09:03I'm very lucky in that way.
09:04Because,
09:05there are four songs.
09:06It's completely different from the other.
09:08Whether it's romantic,
09:09whether it's intense,
09:10whether it's dancing,
09:12whether it's dancing.
09:13And,
09:14I enjoyed dancing.
09:15Everything is dancing.
09:16Everything is singing.
09:17And,
09:18I hope,
09:19that the audience is so much.
09:20I've done it.
09:21I've done it.
09:22I've done it.
09:23I've done it.
09:24I've done it.
09:25So,
09:26I've done it.
09:27I've done it.
09:28I've done it.
09:29Two,
09:30I'm not a choreographer.
09:31So,
09:32I can't tell you my experience.
09:33But,
09:34I can tell you
09:35that,
09:36that,
09:37he's done it.
09:38But,
09:39he's a short tempered man.
09:40Sir,
09:41I've done it.
09:42If you've been sitting a national award,
09:43he's won it.
09:44I've done it.
09:45What do you think?
09:47Do you remember me?
09:48No,
09:49there's no problem.
09:52There's no problem.
09:53There's no chicken food.
09:56There's no chicken food.
09:57There's no chicken food.
09:59There's no chicken food.
10:00There's no chicken food.
10:01The chicken food is given when
10:03our country's best actors
10:05come to that competition
10:06and you're the best of the best.
10:08You're the best of the best.
10:09Do you know Mimo's acting or Mimo's acting?
10:14No, for Jimmy, sorry, I can't even think that it's a national award film.
10:20You say it's a public award film.
10:22Shakti Kapoor, sir.
10:24I don't believe it. I don't believe it.
10:26I don't believe it. I don't believe it.
10:29I don't believe it.
10:34No, I don't believe it.
10:36I don't believe it.
10:38I think as an actor, I've got three national-based actors.
10:45Do you remember that Jimmy was the first film?
10:51Actually, there won't be a scene. There's a lot of scenes.
10:54But there was a moment in Jimmy when we were shooting.
10:58We divided the series in 20 days.
11:04After that, we played the song and the fighting.
11:07So, the scenes and the songs were finished.
11:09Then there was a chance for fighting.
11:11So, it was our first fight sequence.
11:13And I had to extend it.
11:15I had to climb the door from the door.
11:18I was scared of heights already.
11:20But the fight master, Mehmet Bakshi,
11:24He asked me,
11:26If you can do it, then do it.
11:27Otherwise, you don't need to do it.
11:29I thought, let's take my first picture.
11:31Why didn't I impress the audience?
11:33So, it was a rehearsal.
11:35Then, when the take came,
11:36the work of the take was okay.
11:38But after that,
11:39I accidentally dropped my right leg quickly.
11:43That's why my right leg was hurt.
11:46It was very painful.
11:47I had to go to the hospital.
11:48I had to take injection.
11:49I had to do x-ray.
11:51I was scared of holding the leg.
11:54But the soreness was very bad.
11:56After that,
11:57because we had tight date spots.
11:59And we had to finish the schedule.
12:01So, I had to put a right leg in the right leg.
12:04So, I had to go to the right leg.
12:06So, I had to go to the right leg.
12:07And in that pain,
12:08I had to do all the remaining fight sequences.
12:10We did all the other.
12:11Then, my left shoulder leg went out.
12:14Then, we had to do my hand in a fight sequence.
12:18So, all the fight sequences in the gym,
12:21I think,
12:22that will be my most memorable.
12:23Because I know that I had to go to the right leg.
12:26I had to go to the right leg.
12:27But,
12:28like you said,
12:29I had to go to the right leg.
12:31And,
12:32I think it was a very good lesson for me.
12:35That,
12:36I don't want to go ahead and go ahead.
12:37And,
12:38I will see you.
12:39And,
12:40I will learn you.

13:14was it yourself that Shakti Kapoor is the ma ken?
13:17No.
13:18No.
13:19No.
13:20That sounds hard to be insisting
13:20on Shakti Kapoor.
13:21Sorry.

13:27Is it my recommendation Shakti Kapoor?
13:29No.

13:48Sir, what was your love with Mimo?
13:52They both look good. They look nice.
13:54Sir, when Mimo said that, what was your reaction? What was your encouragement and support?
14:02I didn't say it to her mother. I played her dance until three nights. It was so beautiful.
14:11It was a very beautiful dance. After that, I saw that her body has a rhythm.
14:16So, I started training after that.
14:19Sir, it is a very good answer. Do you compare the dance correctly?
14:25Yes.
14:26He will beat me hollow. In the truth, he will beat me hollow.
