Mimi Chakraborty who is receiving rave reviews for her latest film ‘Khela Jawkhon’ feels ‘grateful’ and ‘blessed’ to witness the transition from being labeled ‘average’ to one of the most sought-after actresses in the industry.
Ask her how she sees the transition and Mimi flashes a wide smile, saying, "I feel it's a huge compliment and I'm grateful, humbled and blessed. It's really been such a wonderful journey so far. Whatever was meant to happen, happened, and I don't regret anything that happened. At that time, of course, it was tough. I was just starting out but, eventually, I have realised that everything works out well and it's all for the best”.
How does she deal with rejections and failures today? “I hope none of that happens but I don't think it would affect me in that way honestly. At that point, I was just starting out. I didn't know if I had a career ahead of me. It happened with my very first film. So I felt like it ended even before it could begin. Now the situation is very different. Of course, it would be upsetting if a film got stopped mid-way,” she admits.
She went on to add that one has to accept and embrace failures because in the end, that's what helps one learn a lesson. “I think I'll deal with it much better because I have realised that you cannot escape failure as much as you can't escape success. You have to accept and embrace it because it brings you a lesson. So learn the lesson and move forward,” concludes Mimi.
Up next for the actress is PB Chaki’s romantic drama ‘Palash er Biye’ wherein she has been paired opposite Somraj. It is a contemporary story that revolves around a joint family in north Kolkata.
