In 2024, when Mithun Chakraborty received the Dadasaheb Phalke Award, the actor gave an interview to DD News. In this interview, he talked about many topics, but when he was asked about his 33 flop films, what did the actor answer? Let us know.
In this interview, when the anchor asked Mithun Chakraborty, '33 flop films in the late 90s, was this true news?' On this, Mithun had said, 'No, this is not right, this was people speaking a little extra. My flop films have also made money. Hearing this, the anchor said, 'Yes, you were signing films at that time also.' Then actor Mithun further said, 'If I had flopped, and 33 films back to back had flopped, I would have been out of the industry. This is the habit of people to exaggerate. Turn 10 into 20, turn 5 into 10, this is what happens in the industry. But 7-8 of my films flopped, but even my flop films used to earn money.
