The 40-year-old actor added that there were many people in the industry who insulted his family. "Forget normal people, audience, it was people from the industry jo khule aam jaake mom ka mazaak uda rahe the. (People from the industry were joking about my mother) And it became a little too much for me. Ki yaar mere tak thik hai, dad tak thik hai, but mom pe mat jaao, (it is fine with me, it is fine with dad, but don't target my mother.) You know. But then I know we all go through this," Mimoh said. Mimoh made his debut in 2008 with Jimmy directed by Raj N Sippy, which also starred Vivana Singh and Rahul Dev. The film was panned by critics and audiences and holds a rating of 1.7/10 on IMDb.

Mimoh Chakraborty opens up about being rejection from a film on last minute
Mahaakshay Chakraborty revealed he was dropped from a film just two days before shooting, despite signing the contract and receiving payment. He emphasized that rejection is common in acting and requires resilience. Mimoh continues attending auditions regularly, believing roles suit only characters that align with his true self, like in 'Khakee'. Mithun Chakraborty and Yogeeta Bali 's son Mahaakshay Chakraborty gained recognition for his performances in 'Haunted 3D' and 'Khakee: The Bengal Chapter'. In a recent interview, he shared an experience where he was removed from a film role just two days before filming began. A Last-Minute Drop from a Film In a chat with Bollywood Bubbles, Mimoh shared a deeply hurtful experience of being dropped from a film role at the last moment. He revealed that he had already signed the contract for the film, which felt like a special birthday gift since the offer came just a few days before his birthday and his father was also involved. Mimoh was excited and had even received the signing amount. However, just two days before the scheduled shoot, he received a call informing him that the filmmakers had decided not to include him in the project anymore. This sudden rejection was a tough letdown for him. Facing Rejection Without Explanation He explained that he was removed from the project without any reason, despite having personally signed the contract. At the time, he was in a good mindset, regularly going to the gym and feeling focused, so the sudden rejection came as a shock. Mimoh believes that an actor's heart must be as strong as iron or steel to endure such setbacks because without that resilience, survival in the industry is difficult. He emphasized that rejection is an actor's closest companion and must be accepted as part of the journey. According to him, rejection is different from failure-it simply means not being chosen for a particular role, nothing more. The Reality of Auditions He concluded by saying that he approaches every audition with the same energy and has visited the same casting office multiple times for different projects. He mentioned being called back three to four times for the same project, which gives him hope that he might get the role but often nothing comes of it. Even today, he continues to attend auditions regularly. He stated that his role in Khakee has not changed this reality; auditions remain a part of his life. He explained that during auditions, directors and producers determine if an actor fits the character, and just because he is Mimoh doesn't mean he will suit every role. He believes he can only portray characters that align with who he truly is, like Himel Majumdar in Khakee, which is why he was cast for that role.
