Recently, Govinda, Shakti Kapoor, and this star actor appeared on comedian Kapil Sharma’s show, The Great Indian Kapil Show. The trio shared numerous hilarious anecdotes during their time on the show. One of the most amusing revelations came from this actor, who shared that Shakti Kapoor had helped him sign 10 films in a single night. However, the next day nine of the producers asked for their money back leaving him with just one film. Can you guess who he is?
Govinda helped this actor get his first movie
It’s none other than Bollywood actor Chunky Pandey during the show he credited his success to Govinda. He said, “Whatever I am today is because of Govinda. It was because of him that I got my first film, as he didn’t have any available dates.” Govinda agreed, acknowledging the truth in Chunky’s words. Chunky then went on to recount how he ended up signing 10 films in one night.
The Night of 10 Films
Chunky shared an amusing story about Shakti Kapoor’s role in helping him that night. “Shakti Kapoor ji helped me earn ₹50,000 at a party. Back then, ₹50,000 was equivalent to ₹50 lakh today,” he said. “Shakti ji took me to the party and introduced me to various producers, telling them that I was going to be a big hero. He would put his hand into his pocket and take out whatever money he had, handing it to me. That night, I ended up signing 10 films, all thanks to Shakti Kapoor.”
The Refund Drama
However, the story took a twist. Chunky revealed that after all the excitement, nine producers asked for their money back. “In the end, I only worked on one film,” he admitted. To which Shakti Kapoor jokingly responded, “He lies so much! Do you really think he will ever give money back?”
Shakti Kapoor also shared a funny incident involving Chunky. He told a story about how Chunky had once taken Salman Khan to a clothing store, claiming the shopkeeper was a huge fan of Salman. In exchange for bringing Salman to the store, the shopkeeper offered Chunky a sponsorship deal.
Chunky’s Little Secret
Shakti Kapoor revealed, “Chunky told Salman that the shopkeeper was a huge fan and wanted him to come so that Salman could pick out whatever clothes he wanted. Chunky also said, ‘If you come, I’ll get a couple of jackets for myself too.’ So, Salman agreed and visited the store. While he picked out some clothes, the shopkeeper refused to take money from him.”
