Early life and career
Madhur was born in Agra, India
In 1997, Madhur won Boogie Woogie a popular reality-based dance show on television. Shortly after, his family moved to Mumbai where he joined AVM High for his schooling and Madhur forayed into acting and dancing on stage in charity shows, cultural events and film-award ceremonies. He traveled the world performing in over 950 stage shows. As a child actor he worked in well known Hindi films like One Two Ka Four, Kahin Pyaar Na Ho Jaaye, and more recently Say Salaam India. He has also acted in several TV shows including Shaka Laka Boom Boom, Kasauti Zindagi Ki, Jalwa, Chamatkar, Prithviraj Chauhan and Dastak.
Madhur Mittal's role in Slumdog Millionaire has helped him to gain worldwide attention. To prepare himself for the role of Salim in Slumdog Millionaire after being cast he hung out with some of the ‘gangsters’ in Mira Road "to get into their heads". Director Danny Boyle gave him a series of the Godfather to watch as that had a crazy brother in it. Also, he had an accident which led him getting 12 stitches which helped with the rough look, he said. He had to grow his hair long, increase his skin tan and lose weight to act as Salim.
Though Mittal gave a very powerful performance in Slumdog Millionaire as Salim, he was kept away from the spotlight, the focus instead set firmly on the lead couple of the film. When asked about his absence from the studio-generated hype, he shrugs: “The studio wanted to promote it as a love story.”
In 2008 he was nominated for the Black Reel Awards of 2008 for Best Ensemble and in 2009, along with the entire cast of Slumdog Millionaire he won the Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture at the 15th Screen Actors Guild Awards. He was also set to be present for the 66th Golden Globe Awards and the 15th Screen Actors Guild Awards.
Mittal plays Anwar Razdan in the second series of Kidnap and Ransom which aired on ITV1 from 23 February 2012.
Most recently, he starred in the Disney film Million Dollar Arm as Dinesh Patel and received good reviews for his performance as the villain in Maatr (2017).
Mittal, in the year 2020, did a web series named High on the OTT platform MX Player and gained some good reviews for that role.
