Rajiv Rai’s Shocking Claim on Chunky Panday

Film director Rajiv Rai, who directed Gupt, recently opened up about Chunky Panday. He revealed that he wanted to cast Panday in some superhit movies. However, because of the negotiations over a lakh or two, the deal never closed, and hence Chunky and he never worked together. Rai said that he wanted Chunky for his film Tridev.

Rajiv Rai revealed to Siddharth Kannan that he had initially approached Chunky Panday for Tridev, but the actor lost the role due to a dispute over Rs 1–2 lakh. Sharing the incident, he said, “I went to Chunky Panday’s house 20–25 times for Tridev. He’s a very nice person, but every time, he would start negotiating for an extra Rs 1–2 lakh. I got tired of it. He genuinely wanted to do the film, but he kept insisting on a higher fee, so I ended up casting someone else. It’s just his habit—he’s miserly by nature.”

Meanwhile, Chunky is considered one of the biggest stars of his time, and today he owns Rs 160 crore as his net worth.
