Mumbai, January 16 (NationPress) – The forthcoming episode of Indian Idol is set to evoke powerful emotions as the legendary Mithun Chakraborty receives a touching surprise from his sons, Mahaakshay Chakraborty and Ushmey Chakraborty, on the show's stage.
This celebration marks 50 glorious years of Mithun Da in the film industry, transforming the moment into an intimate tribute that resonated deeply with everyone present.
Ushmey shared cherished memories of his father, recounting his upbringing amongst film sets and witnessing Mithun Da's unwavering commitment to his craft.
Reflecting on their childhood, he noted how they could only spot their father during shoots, reminiscing about the 90s when Mithun Da was a dominant superstar, often juggling four shifts in a single day.
Ushmey expressed how surreal it is to witness his father's remarkable journey as he approaches five decades in cinema by 2025.
Ushmey said, “Today, I have come to his set, and even in my childhood, we could only see him on sets. He was one of the biggest superstars of the 80s and 90s. He used to work four shifts in a single day. And today, in 2026, this man has completed 50 years in the film industry. My first film was Bad Boy.”
He continued, “During its promotions, we went to Kolkata. We also visited his first home, the place where he was born. I couldn’t tolerate the stench of the street for more than 30 seconds because I am the son of a very big superstar.
When I entered the house, I asked people about their memories of him. They took me to a window and said, ‘At night, it used to feel so claustrophobic that you couldn’t see a single star in the sky. And from that very house emerged one of the biggest stars of Indian cinema, Mithun Da.’
Moved by his son’s heartfelt words, Mithun Da became visibly emotional as they shared an embrace on stage. Judge and acclaimed singer Shreya Ghoshal was seen wiping her tears, touched by the heartfelt story and the bond shared between father and sons.
Host Aditya Narayan invited everyone to join in a celebratory dance to the iconic song “Julie Julie”, as Mithun Da and his sons joined Shreya Ghoshal in this joyous moment.
