Yesteryear actor and dancer Mithun Chakraborty aka Mithun da will appear on Star Plus' dance reality show— Dance + 5. In the last two weeks, the captains along with Super Judge Remo D’Souza have been facing a tough time selecting the best dancers from the ones showcasing their talent on stage.
Mithun da was also seen being impressed with the amazing dancers who presented different dance styles.
As the veteran actor heard different stories of struggle of the contestants, he also remembered his struggling days when he came to Mumbai for the first time. The actor got emotional as he shared unheard details about the tough days from his life. “I never stopped dreaming and always faced reality. When I came to Mumbai, I had no shelter and there were days when I used to hide and sleep on water tanks on terraces of buildings so that the security guard won’t spot me and throw me out,” he said.
“During the initial days of struggle in the industry, I faced a lot of rejection due to my skin tone. That was when I decided that I will showcase my dancing skills which will make people focus on my feet rather than my skin tone,” added the original Disco Dancer.
After listening to Mithun da's story, everyone on the set was left with moist eyes. He also boosted the confidence of all the aspiring contestants on the show.
