I can beat my father in dancing, says Mithun's son Mimoh

MUMBAI: Mimoh Chakraborty, son of veteran actor Mithun Chakraborty, who makes his debut on silver screen this week with 'Jimmy', says he can beat his father in dancing.
    
"Whereas acting is concerned, I have a long way to go. I am aware that comparisons will be inevitable," Mimoh said here.
    
`Jimmy' has three premieres in Delhi on Wednesday, in Mumbai on Thursday and Kolkata on Friday.
    
Speaking about the film, Mimoh said he plays a mechanical engineer whose love for dance makes him take a job of DJ in a night club."My character gets involved in a murder case and how he manages to prove himself innocent forms the crux of the story," he said.
    
The young debutante said the film directed by Raj Sippy was a perfect launch pad for him.
    
"It is a suspense thriller and I have got enough opportunity to show my dancing skills. I am very confident that the film would do well," said the son of "Disco Dancer" hero.
    
When asked about film's catchline -- dance is in his DNA, the actor said he was fond of dancing and has even learnt it.
    
Mimoh said several producers have been wanting to cast him with his dad as father and son in their films. "But my father feels this is not the right time and has rejected all the offers," he said.
    
But Mithun is the presenter of 'Jimmy' and Mimoh said his father is not appearing in a single frame in the film.
    
"My father was present on the sets when dance sequences were being shot. He wanted to ensure that everything was perfect," he said.
