Farah Khan, known for her outspoken nature, had some fun revealing Bollywood’s biggest penny-pincher on The Great Indian Kapil Show recently. She teased Chunky Panday as the top contender and proved it by calling him on the show and asking for 500 rupees. Chunky’s response? “Just go to the ATM!”
When host Kapil asked her, “Who is zyada kanjoos between Anil and Farah,” she said that both of them are quite generous. However, Farah also claimed she knows who the biggest penny-pincher in the industry is. She proved it by calling them live on the show and asking for Rs 500. The choreographer-turned-director said, “I can tell you who is the most miser in the industry. There is only one person. Chunky Panday. I swear. Bring me my phone. I will call him and ask for 500 rupees.” She called up Chunky and put him on the loudspeaker.
Speaking to him over the call, Farah said, “Chunky, listen I need 500 rupees.” Chunky replied, “Then go to the ATM, no?” Farah requested, “Chunky, at least give me 50 rupees.” Chunky feigned a network issue and said, “Hello? Kaun chahiye?” Farah then said, “Chunky at least give me Rs 50.” Chunky replied, “Hello? Kaun chahiye?”
While promoting Housefull 4, Akshay Kumar, Chunky Panday, Riteish Deshmukh, and Jackie Shroff had graced the celebrity The Kapil Sharma Show. During a fun interaction, Akshay had shared a funny anecdote, related to his co-star Chunky Panday. Calling Chunky a smart businessman, he recalled, “Once Salman Khan was doing a show with Chunky Panday in South Africa. After the show wrapped up smoothly, Chunky told Salman that he was quite happy. Chunky, who was also the organiser of the show, made an offer to Salman that he would take him shopping. “I’ll buy your shirts, pants, and jeans,” Chunky told Salman and the latter agreed to go along with him. Akshay also shared that Chunky took Salman to a clothing store and asked him to buy him some clothes. Later, the shop owner asked for a photo with Salman, and he happily obliged. It was only a few days later that it was revealed Chunky had taken $20,000 from the shop owner, promising to bring Salman Khan to the store.
Chunky Panday has delivered some impressive performances in his career spanning decades. From tickling funny bones in hilarious roles to turning into a dreaded antagonist, the 60-year-old proved his versatility in films like Aankhen, Khatron Ke Khiladi, Qayamat: City Under Threat, and Begum Jaan.
