Mamik Singh Biography

Mamik Singh is a Bollywood actor who has appeared in many television serials and advertisements. He is better known for playing Aamir Khan’s elder brother in Bollywood blockbuster, Jo jeeta wohi Sikandar in 1992. He played lead role opposite Manisha Koirala in the first production venture of Ronnie Screwvala, Dil ke jaroke mein in 1997. As a television actor, he is better known for the horror series on Star Plus - Ssshhhh...Koi Hai, in which he played the male protagonist Vikral. The show was aired in 2006 and was a major success. Kahani Chandrakanta Ki on Sahara One, Chandrakanta on Doordarshan and Black on 9X are other noted television works.

 

Despite getting a big break through Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikander, Mamik didn’t get any film offers and he appeared in only a few movies later – Koi Kisise Kum Nahin (1997), Aar ya paar (1997) and Kya Kehna (2000). After that he said good bye to film industry and completely concentrated on small screen. It is bit surprising that after his magic debut in Bollywood, it took 5 long years to get a film offer. Ssshhhh...Koi Hai made him a star overnight and is the best role on small screen till now. Chandramukhi, Woh, Maal Hai To Taal Hai and Shaka Laka Boom Boom are other popular appearances. Currently he plays the supporting role of a painter in Saavdhan India, a crime show aired by Life OK.

 

He is still remembered for the role of Ratan Lal Sharma played in his debut movie. He failed to grab opportunities in the film industry, post Jo jeeta wohi Sikandar success. In his words, he was very much a laidback person and when the time was gone, the loss couldn’t be recovered. Many big players of Bollywood like Subhash Ghai, Vidhu Vinod Chopra and Raj Kumar Santoshi offered him roles in the movies. But he rejected them saying roles are not significant. Yet he is happy that he is remembered for a single memorable role than 40 worthless ones.
