Mithun Chakraborty's son Mahaakshay is yet to find a footing in the Bollywood.
The luck has not been on his side so far, feels his dad.
Mahaakshay made his debut in 2008 with action flick 'Jimmy'. It was a dud, both in the critics' books as well as at the box office.
The next film, Vikram Bhatt's 'Haunted - 3D' did well at the box office but his next 'Loot' was a flop, so was 'Enemmy', where he was seen with his father.
"His luck has not favoured him yet so he is still fighting. But as an actor I feel he has everything, otherwise I am not a fool to push him. He has it in him but luck has to be there on your side as well. It is ok... It happens," Chakraborty told PTI in an interview.
"You just need a good chance so that it clicks. Like, I never thought 'Disco Dancer'will be a cult film. It is all about chance. I think Mithun Chakraborty is also a chance," he said.
After producing 'Enemmy', is the veteran actor interested in producing another film?
"I want to produce more films. But my first movie flopped. I have to struggle. I have plans but nothing is concrete so can't talk about it," he said.
