It's dream come true for Mimoh

Excited to be paired opposite his father, Mithun Chakraborty in Spaghetti 24/7, Mimoh Chakraborty tells TOI that most girls of his choice end up being in love with his dad...
You are sporting a new look...
I needed to flaunt a toned look for Gaurav Pandey���������������������������s Spaghetti 24/7, but I was determined to sport a slim and trim look because in today���������������������������s competitive world looks are primary and acting is secondary.There are many directors who cast actors keeping in mind their screen presence rather than their ability to deliver. I have to get noticed to survive in this industry and for that, I need to look good and perform well. I have slogged a year for this look. I work out six days a week and indulge in power yoga, kick boxing, dancing, running and gymming. I follow a strict diet except on Sundays since Baba (Mithun Chakraborty) is the greatest chef on earth and cooks a mean mutton biryani on Sundays.
Surely Mithun Chakraborty���������������������������s son must have it easy in bagging offers...
On the contrary, it���������������������������s never a cakewalk for star kids. Baba has never recommended me to any director and will never do so. He strongly believes that nothing comes on a platter and I respect his ideology.
But star kids like Ranbir Kapoor, Sonam Kapoor are going great guns...
They are really doing great in their career. But they all must have worked hard for it. They are doing great in their career because they are worthy not because they are star kids.
What are your father���������������������������s acting tips to you?
His only tip to me is to be honest in life. He tells me ��������������������������� ���������������������������Be honest to your work, family and friends. Things will fall in place.��������������������������� I believe acting is a learning process and no one can give tips on acting.
The buzz is that you are playing a negative character in Spaghetti 24/7?
I won���������������������������t say it is a negative role but yes, there are shades of grey.
You must be thrilled since Mithun and you will be cast together for the first time in Pandey���������������������������s film? Is it a pressure to be paired with an actor of such calibre?
Surely, I���������������������������m happy to be cast with him in Gaurav Sir���������������������������s film. In fact, it was my dream to act with Baba. I am also aware of the fact that expectations from me will be sky high since we will be sharing the same frame. But if I think of it as pressure, then my performance will suffer.
But don���������������������������t you think there is a chance of getting overshadowed by Mithun?
(Laughs) One can���������������������������t help it as he is Mithun Chakraborty. As of now, I want to concentrate on my acting and not think of anything else.
Buzz is that you play a tapori in Rajnish Thakur���������������������������s Root?
Yes. It is a comedy action film and I am paired opposite Shweta Bhardwaj. In fact, I want to act in all regional films and not limit myself to Bollywood or Tollywood alone.
Does it dampen your spirits when you realise that your film has not fared well at the BO?
One cannot become a superstar in a day. Despite being in the industry for close to three decades, Baba tells me he is improving with each take.
Film-making anyway is a gamble. While actors always face the arclights with confidence once the camera starts to roll, a hit or a miss is part-destined and part audience-controlled.
Any special friend in Mimoh���������������������������s life?
The saddest part is if I like any girl,the first thing I hear from her is ��������������������������� I am in love with your father! What more
can I say?
