The actor was ridiculed for his dark skin color. People laughed and said, “Apni Shakal Dekhi Hai.” He went on to be a superstar, arguably the biggest Indian star in Russia, defeating Amitabh Bachchan, Raj Kapoor and Shah Rukh Khan.
Actors who were ridiculed for their appearance
The actor is usually judged based on the parameters of appearance, physique and talent. But today we will discuss an actor with great talent but no heroic appearance or physique. In the era of Amitabh Bachchan, Vinod Khanna, Feroz Khan, Rajesh Khanna and Dharmendra, the dark hero was ridiculed by the film industry figures themselves. The actor has no godfather and is cheered from a humble background. So he didn’t have the chance to work hard until he tried his luck in the film industry. When he became a star a few years later, the actor recalled Bollywood insiders claiming that they would quit the industry if he succeeded him. Today, the actor is considered one of the biggest stars in Indian films and is arguably the largest Indian star in Russia.

Mithun further recalled how insiders bet on him, saying, “Agar Yeh Hero Bana, Toh Industry Chhod Ke Chala Jaunga (If he succeeds in becoming a hero, I will leave the industry. The naysmen left the Indian dance, but I stood firm.”
