Chunky Pandey is a popular star today, but he also saw such a period when he was getting only C grade films. He once compared his situation to Amitabh Bachchan, who was not working in any film then.

New Delhi: Chunky Pandey became popular with the film ‘Aankhen’. He later got many shocks. Chunky Pandey was not getting good roles in the late 1990s. He started playing the character role. In a difficult time, Chunky Pandey once compared himself to Program Amitabh Bachchan, who was taking a break from films at that time. The actor cleaned his intention in an old interview. He then said for Amitabh Bachchan, ‘He does not work, I do not get work.’ (Photo courtesy: Instagram@Chunkypanday)

Chunky said in an interview with Lehran, ‘Look, I make a lot of jokes on other actors, so I thought that I should also make a joke on you. See, I am a big fan of Amit ji, I hope he will not feel bad, because I did not make a joke on him, made it on myself. (Photo courtesy: Instagram@Chunkypanday)

Chunky cleaned his talk. Actually, he was not worried about not getting work, but he had trouble with the roles he was getting. (Photo courtesy: Instagram@Chunkypanday)

The actor said, ‘When I was saying that I do not get work, I was trying to say that I do not get my work. Although I get offers from 2 films every day, but I do not want to do those types of films. He further said, ‘You know C-grade movies, where the producer does not know anything, who is the director and the film is half, how will it be made, will be made in poverty, will be forced … I have done 4-5 such films. I do not want to make this mistake. I do not want to make this mistake again. (Photo courtesy: Instagram@Chunkypanday)

Chunky said, ‘So I am not working because I do not want to work, so my situation is like Amitabh Bachchan.’ Chunky Pandey broke the notion in the same interview that he cannot act. This tag was associated with him in his early time of his career. (Photo courtesy: Instagram@Chunkypanday)

Chunky further said, ‘Nobody ever said non-actor. Yes, sometimes I gave 32 retakes. Sometimes confusion happened. He insisted, ‘Nobody said that Chunky Pandey was bad in his film. Everyone said that he was average, good, improved. He was better. (Photo courtesy: Instagram@Chunkypanday)

Chunky Pandey, while thinking on his journey, said that playing the role of traditional hero can be limited compared to character role. They say, ‘What is that when you play a regular hero, then there is very little scope. The hero is always good, fights for justice, fights for his mother, fights for his sister … you get stuck in a formula. ‘ (Photo courtesy: Instagram@Chunkypanday)

Chunky Pandey finally said, ‘But when you play a character role, like I have done in’ Tezaab ‘,’ Looter ‘, then it gets diversity. A scope gets to do something. (Photo courtesy: Instagram@Chunkypanday)
