Mithun Chakraborty
The year 1976 marked the entry of a tall, dark and a handsome man, in the industry. Born on 16 June 1952, Mithun Chakraborty, literally changed the conventional image of a hero in the industry. For an actor who himself once admitted saying, "I am not an actor by ambition but by compulsion." Mithun's Bollywood career is nothing less than a miracle. From being a junior artist, to being a National award winner actor and a superstar, Mithun's life is truly an inspiration to many. Attributes that made him stand out from the others in that era, were his unconventional looks, different yet trend-setting dance moves and the ability to be at home in the art-house as well as commercial cinema.
To celebrate India's official Disco Dancer's 68th birthday, Sony MAX2, India's iconic Hindi movie channel from Sony Pictures Networks will air the super hit family saga of 1986, Swarg Se Sundar on Saturday, June 16 at 7 pm.
