Today the 16th of June, Besides marking the official release of this post is also the day when Mimoh's father Celebrates his birthday. If real life was Sholay then Bappi Lahiri was gabbar and Mithunda, basanti. Of course Dharmendra was the national Award. :)
Mithun danced to Bappis tunes to win the national award.
Of the Numerous national awards he has won for commercially successful movies I personally Love him for movies that won his audience gallantry awards for going through the entire film. I dont know what real success does to people, According to Maslows Heirarchy of needs human behavious flows in the following way (Diagram attached For Non-MBAs) Today on his birthday we shall credit him for art not monetized well, whikle simultaneously trying to decipher this mans correlation with Human wants.
Once a person meets his basic physiological, Security and social needs a Man strives for Esteem beyond which he seeks Self Actualization. Like Shahrukh Khan moved on from his Butt show ZGraded Maya Memsaab to musically acclaimed Mohobatein. Mithun on the other hand moved from National Award winning Agneepath and Disco Dancer to Shapath, Chandal, and the all time cult classic GUNDA.
Kanti Shah Loyalist might argue Gunda out performed every other Mithun Work, but for the sake of contradiction I'd argue Shapath was just as good if not better. In my opinion it is the Triveni Sangam (Confluence of three Large Rivers of India) of Motion Pictures. Jackie Shroff, Mithun Chakroborty and the largest Royalty earner from Auto-Rickshaw Stereos Altaf Raja. Well supported by stars such as Harish (picture attached for visual pleasure) who by the time shapath was released quit all attempts of sporting a mustache. So the movie flows on the river of confusion and revenge. harish gets killed by the bad guys, His brother Retired Army Commando Mithun (Now a drunkard with long hair) in quest of avenging his death goes in search of and Jaggu Dada whos not the real bad guy but works with them. Their Powers Unite and together they overcome the forces of evil. As they move from strength to strength Altaf dances with women in florescent undergarments covered in white cloth Just for the sake of entertaining two good guys taking on a town full of goons.
As it always happen it ends in the triumph of good over evil.
Now here is my argument
If the national awards won him Esteem, Mithun made movies with Kanti Shah for Self Actualization???????????
Nobody knows why it happened but some reason it just did.
However it maybe the man has been relentlessly entertaining every eyeball. Happy Birthday
