Mithun Chakraborty recalls the time when he lived on a footpath and had nothing to eat – Times of India

“I never want anybody to go through what I have gone through in life. Everyone has seen struggles and fought through difficult days, but I was always called out for my skin colour. I have been disrespected for a lot of years because of my skin colour…,” he said on the Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Li’l Champs.

Mithun also revealed that he had to sleep on footpaths for several days during his struggling period. “I have seen days when I had to sleep with an empty stomach, and I used to cry myself to sleep. In fact, there were days when I had to think about what my next meal will be, and where I will go to sleep. I have also slept on the footpath for a lot of days,” he shared.

The actor was last seen on the big screen in Vivek Agnihotris The Kashmir Files. He is currently shooting for Baap, that also stars Sunny Deol, Sanjay Dutt and Jackie Shroff. The action drama movie will reunite the 90s superstars on the silver screen.
