A report in Spotboye.com has quoted the superstar's manager Vijay as saying, "Dada is unwell and not in Mumbai. He is not using his phone and has decided to rest himself in Los Angeles for at least a month. It's been nearly two weeks now since he flew out, and he will return only by end of this month."

The legend who ruled the box office with his moves back in the '80s, has been part of a few TV shows in the last couple of years; Dance Bangla Dance, followed by Dance India Dance.

When Mithun's manager was asked by the website why he has cut himself off completely, Vijay replied, "Dada also had a hairline fracture in his back, but thankfully he doesn't need a surgery."

Chakraborty's back began giving him trouble when he miscalculated a stunt sequence during the shooting of the 2009 film Luck, starring Imran Khan and Shruti Haasan. Mithun had to jump off from a helicopter, and the miscalculation on the veteran actor's part left him with an injured back.

Vijay said, "Dada mistimed his jump and thereafter his back started giving him too much trouble. Dada's back trouble was something that was waiting to happen. Look at the number of action films he did. The pain had aggravated a month ago, but he is doing better now. I hope to see him back in Mumbai 15 days from now."

The star is known for '80s blockbusters like Disco Dancer, Mujhe Insaaf Chahiye, Ghar Ek Mandir, etc. The Hindi film Chakraborty was last seen in is 2015's Hawaizaada. Here's wishing Disco Dancer a speedy recovery.
