Mithun also goes to the extent of personally asking the producers if they really think whether it is worth signing Mimoh for the role.

Since the debut in 1976, Mithun's career has been a fast paced one - probably as fast as the "disco dancer" could kick and fly across the air in his heydays.
In this fascinating study of colonial camaraderie, Mithun was cast as Ghinua, a tribal who shares a passion for hunting with his colonial ruler.

 Review On Mithun Chakraborty by san1378 - MouthShut.com   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
If one can look at the Mithun?s career, one very interesting fact would come out that he made his mark in the industry when both its superstars were present and working, Big B and Rajesh Khanna, that too without help of any big banner or big directors.
Probably Mithun is one of the few star actors who made his mark in both parallel cinema and mainstream cinema.
Mithun refused the role as he was to shave his head for the movie and Mithun had, at that time, other commercial movies in making so he refused to do the role.
