Mumbai – Actress Sonam Khan reminisced about a childhood secret crush on Bollywood legend Mithun Chakraborty in a recent Instagram post.
She shared an old photo of the two together, then told fans how she felt nervous whenever she worked with him. “He was the only co‑actor I was afraid to talk to,” she wrote, and added that he never knew she admired him from a distance.
Khan praised Mithun’s kindness and grace, calling him “a superstar with a heart of gold.” She revealed that he had signed her for a movie before her first film premiered—a huge break for a newcomer. “Thanks to his generosity, I didn’t even have to audition,” she said.
The actress also recalled meeting Mithun again at Coimbatore airport while traveling to Ooty. He invited her to a seven‑course meal at his hotel, The Monarch, and she described the experience as “the same gracious gentleman I met at the start of my career.”
Sonam’s film list includes “Tridev,” “Mitti Aur Sona,” “Kroadh,” “Kodama Simham,” “Ajooba,” “Fateh,” and “Vishwatma.”
Fans of Indian cinema and the blooming careers of young actresses will enjoy this glimpse into a star‑powered mentorship and the lasting impact of a legendary actor on the next generation.
