Veteran Bollywood actor Mithun Chakraborty has been discharged from a Kolkata hospital yesterday. He had suffered a stroke on February 10 and was admitted to Apollo Hospital.

Chakraborty spoke to the media upon his discharge and said Prime Minister Narendra Modi had called him during his stay in the hospital and reprimanded him for not taking due care of himself. The actor revealed he was feeling better now and was absolutely fine.

The Disco Dancer star said he would have to keep a close watch on his food habits. Chakraborty said he will restart work soon.

Reports said the actor was not feeling well and was taken to the hospital where doctors said he had suffered a stroke. An Apollo Hospital said the 73-year-old actor was brought to the Emergency Department of Apollo Multispecialty Hospitals, Kolkata, around 9.40 am with a complaint of weakness in the right upper and lower limbs.

The news of his health condition came a few days after it was announced he will be honoured with a Padma Bhushan Award 2024. Mithun Chakraborty started his career in films in 1976 with the Mrinal Sen-directed Mrigayaa and has been the recipient of many prestigious honours, including the National Award. He joined the BJP in the presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi at Kolkata’s historic Brigade Parade Ground on March 7, 2021.  The BJP had positioned Chakraborty, said to be a former Naxalite, as a challenge to the electoral might of the Mamata Banerjee-led Trinamool Congress, which is in its third term ruling West Bengal.

The actor was a crowdpuller at election rallies bringing in the crowds lured by his filmi dialogues ususally centered on seeking vengeance and the ilk. That, however, didn’t work as expected and the voters preferred to stick with Mamata Banerjee.

Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin on Thursday lauded the team of Amaran including film starrer Sai Pallavi and Sivakarthikeyan as well as director Rajkumar Periasamy for capturing the bravery and dedication of Tamil Nadu army veteran Major Mukund Varadarajan in his film.

The Tamil Nadu Chief Minister said that he watched the film at the invitation of veteran actor Kamal Haasan

“I watched a movie yesterday #amrnnn after accepting the invitation of my artist friend @ikamalhaasan. It’s great to bring true stories to today’s youth in the form of books – as well as movies! Director @Rajkumar_KP, Major Mukund Varadarajan – Tirumiku has emotionally captured the bravery and dedication of Tamil Nadu army veteran Major Mukund Varadarajan. My congratulations to all the crew of Thambi @Siva_Kartikeyan, @Sai_Pallavi92 and #Amaran for portraying the roles of Indu Rebecca Varghese very well! Big Salute to our soldiers who protect the country – Major Mukund Varadarajan who lives in our memory! @RKFI @gvprakash,” Stalin posted on X.

Recently, the creators of Amaran released the film’s trailer, featuring Sivakarthikeyan in the titular role of Major Mukund Varadarajan. The film narrates the compelling story of the decorated soldier who commanded the Indian Army’s 44 Rashtriya Rifles Cheetah Company and made the ultimate sacrifice for his country. Sai Pallavi joins the cast as well, and the film is premiering today.

The trailer opens with a striking statement from an officer to Major Mukund: “You do not choose 44 RR; 44 RR chooses you,” effectively setting the tone for the heroism depicted in the film. It offers glimpses into Major Mukund’s personal life, showcasing his family’s reaction to his choice to join the military and the love story he shares with Indhu, portrayed by Sai Pallavi.

Intense action sequences illustrate Major Mukund, as played by Sivakarthikeyan, in battle, where he resolutely declines a retreat order from his superior, asserting, “I’ll save every life I can and come back, sir.” Indhu expresses her pride, stating, “I am proud of him being an army officer and me being an army wife.” A poignant moment captures Sivakarthikeyan’s character stating, “This is the face of the Indian army,” highlighting his unwavering determination.

Kamal Haasan, one of the film’s producers, shared the trailer on social media, stating, “Leaders seldom choose a trodden path. They create one where there is none and blaze a new trail. #MajorMukundVaradarajan of Tamil Nadu is one such leader. We take pride in telling his story.”

Inspired by the true events chronicled in Shiv Aroor and Rahul Singh’s book “India’s Most Fearless”, Amaran serves as a tribute to a genuine hero. The trailer has been released in various languages, with notable personalities such as Nani promoting it in Telugu, Tovino Thomas in Malayalam, Shiva Rajkumar in Kannada, and Aamir Khan in Hindi.

The trailer concludes on an emotional note, featuring Major Mukund’s daughter asking Indhu, “You told me appa will come for my birthday, will he come?”

Directed by Rajkumar Periasamy and produced by the iconic Kamal Haasan, alongside R. Mahendran and Sony Pictures International Productions, Amaran poignantly tells the story of Major Mukund Varadarajan and his wife Indhu, encapsulating their journey of love, sacrifice, and the profound personal losses encountered during Major Varadarajan’s heroic service to the nation.
