Born to the legendary juggler Abhoy Mitra, Mousumi was inducted in the world of juggling at an early age of 7 years who not only encouraged Mousumi but also all his daughters and son in this performance of “Artistic Juggling” among whom Mousumi's affinity to the subject was maximum. Mousumi observed her father's performence in his jugglery acts in many films of Shri Satyajit Ray like Fatik Chand, Joy Baba Felunath etc. Specially the knife throwing scene in Joy Baba Felunath, motivated her to gain confidence and skill for the subject. She has not only dawn tuned the mantle of a juggler but wishes this profession of art should continue for the next few genres.Mousumi who made her first stage appearance at the tender age of eight went on to learn the twirling of a ribbon with a stick, twirling of a paper carpet with stick and has performed in TV programmes like Chiching Faak, Hare-Kare-Kamba and many others
