When two of Hindi cinema’s most entertaining stars, Govinda and Chunky Panday, come together under one roof, wild stories, hilarious memories, and lots of mischief are guaranteed. The upcoming episode of Prime Video’s Two Much with Kajol and Twinkle turns right into a nostalgia-soaked, laugh-out-loud reunion as Govinda and Chunky Panday join Kajol and Twinkle for an episode full of filmy anecdotes, fun banter, and signature 90s energy. From Govinda’s heartfelt memories of Rajesh Khanna to Chunky’s outlandish profession stories (including one which literally begins in a toilet), this episode is a reminder of why the 90s were an era like no other, making it an unmissable look ahead to every Bollywood buff.
Twinkle Khanna On Her Relationship With Chunky Panday
Twinkle recalls her long-standing reference to Chunky and shares, “I remember, your (Chunky’s) mother was a physician to all of the actors. My grandmother knew you. He used to return to our house, and my grandmother at all times called him ‘Junky Panday’”. Chunky, reminiscing in regards to the good ol’ days, adds, “Inki grandmother ka naam tha Bitti Kapadia. Aur maine Twinkle ko diapers mein dekha hai (Her name was Bitti Kapadia. I even have seen Twinkle in Diapers).” While Kajol and Govinda burst out in laughter, Twinkle exclaims, “Yuck!”
Chunky shares how visiting Rajesh Khanna’s house stays one in all his fondest childhood memories, highlighting, “Humlog Kaka ji ke ghar jate they to observe video movies, kyuki, pure hindustan mein khali doh video player they, ek kakaji ke ghar pe tha, Rajesh Khanna ji ke. (We used to go to their house to observe video movies. In all of India there have been only two video players. One at Mr. Rajesh Khanna’s house.)
Govinda also shares his admiration for the late legend, saying, “Twinkle, I have to say this in your show, Ki meh apke dad ka itna bada fan hu, baap re baap, ap soch bhi nahi sakti hai (I’m a diehard fan of your father’s. An ardent follower). What a personality! Aisa hero na isse phele kabhi dekha gaya or na uske baad kabhi aisa khoobsurat hero aaya. (There was no hero like him, and there won’t ever be one other as beautiful as him.)” Agreeing with Govinda, Kajol adds, “He was the primary superstar of the industry, matlab super-duper superstar.”
Chunky On Selling Black Ticket
Chunky shares one other hilarious Black Ticket anecdote. He says, “Ek baar Govinda ki picture release hui thi na, woh hit jane wali thi picture, toh mehne tickets black meh khareed ke aadhe bhau meh beche, taki picture ki report kharab hojaye. (Considered one of his movies was presupposed to be a super-hit one. So, I purchased the tickets from the black market and sold them at half the value. To tarnish the movie’s image)”. Taken by amusement, Twinkle jokingly says, “Chunky, only you possibly can do that. Chunky jessa Jugaadu admi mehne dekha he nahi! (His modern fixes are impeccable!)”
Chunky On How He Became The Amitabh Bachchan Of Bangladesh
Chunky takes a visit down memory lane, revealing how he became the ‘Amitabh Bachchan’ of Bangladesh. He said, “Most important plane meh ja raha tha Hong Kong, woh engine trouble hogaya toh woh plane Dhaka meh uthra. Plane land hua toh phir hum airport se nikle and waha mujhe ek producer mila. (I used to be on the technique to Hong Kong. The plane’s engine acted up, and we needed to halt at Dhaka. After landing we exited and met a producer)”.
Kajol asks what the producer said, and Chunky replies, “Bola Bangladeshi picture karte hai. Meh bola, chalo, meh Hong Kong se hokar aata hu, and I began my first film. (He proposed a Bangladeshi movie to me. I agreed. I began with my first film after getting back from Hong Kong.)”
From Govinda’s heartfelt Rajesh Khanna memories to Chunky’s unbelievable profession twists, this episode is an ideal reminder that the 90s Bollywood wasn’t just larger-than-life, it was an excessive amount of fun! Conceptualised and produced by Banijay Asia, this one-of-a-kind talk show is presented by Oppo and co-presented by Kohler, Kalyan Jewellers and Fevi Kwik. The fourth episode of Two Much with Kajol and Twinkle will stream exclusively on Prime Video on October 16 in over 240 countries and territories worldwide, with recent episodes dropping every Thursday.
