Chunky Pandey says the monkey was paid more in Aankhen, Govinda reveals: 'We didn’t get paid'

Govinda, Chunkya, Shakti Kapoor were seen on The Great Indian Kapil Show.

Bollywood actors Govinda and Chunky Pandey who have worked together in many hit films, recently made an appearance together on The Great Indian Kapil Show.

On the show, during the chat with host Kapil Sharma, Chunky Pandey revealed that both he and Gonivda were under paid for their roles in superhit Aankhen. And they also said that the monkey was paid more than them.

Friends Chunky, Shakti Kapoor and Govinda shared many untold stories of their good old days.

During the episode Shakti Kapoor began with saying: “We did this film together where these two were the heroes. Actually, no, there were three heroes. Govinda, Chunky, and a monkey. Ask them." Chunky then added: “Yes, he was paid more handsomely than us." Govinda said, “We didn’t get paid."

Shakti shared that the monkey was given a room at a star hotel in Mumbai. He added, “Whenever David would call for the monkey, Chunky would show up. Whenever he called for Chunky, the monkey would show up."

During the course of the episode, Chunky told Kapil that he would carry a bag of clothes with him on the sets of the show as he had to attend many functions. And during one such thing, his organiser called him one day and asked him to wear white clothes for a function. Chunkya said he later realised that it was a funeral.

Chunky said he was not only paid to attend it but was also offered extra money if he cried at the funeral.

One morning, I got a call from an organiser. He asked, ‘What are you doing today?’ I told him, ‘I am just leaving for a shooting.’ He asked me where it is and I told him it’s in Film City. He then said, ‘Bhai, raaste mein ek chota sa event hai, 10 minute ke liye, aana, paise ache hai.’ I said sure. He then asked me, ‘If you’re coming, wear white clothes and come.’ I didn’t think much, wore white clothes and landed at the venue," Chunky said.

Chunky told Kapil that he thought that the organiser had died but soon was shocked to see the person standing next to him.

The organiser then said 'you payment is with me but the relatives are saying it you cry more then they can pay you more." Everyone was left in splits of laughter.
