The 34-year-old mother of two, who runs a small classical dance school in Kolkata, is on cloud nine after winning the first edition of Zee TV's talent hunt show.
"I am extremely happy as I did not expect to win the show. Now that I have won the show, I think my childhood dream of choreographing a dance for my favourite actor Salman will be fulfilled. I will work hard now and soon make my dream come true," Mithu told PTI.
"I give all the credit to my husband, who encouraged and supported me in every step. I was not supposed to participate in the show but he asked me to do it. I would like to celebrate my win with him and my kids. I would like to cook fish and mutton for them as it's been long time I haven't cooked for them," said the trained Bharatnatyam dancer.
Mithu has won a cash price of Rs 10 lakhs after beating the likes of Cecill Rodrigues, Shraddha Shah, Zoya Khan and Phulwa Khamkar.
Mithu said she would continue her dedication towards the art form.
