Neelam Kothari reveals she wanted to kill Chunky Pandey on the sets of ‘Aag Hi Aag’: I have a scar for life because of him | Hindi Movie News
Neelam Kothari is best friends with Chuky Pandey’s wife Bhavana Pandey and their gang also includes Gauri Khan, Maheep Kapoor and Seema Sajdeh. But did you know that Neelam and shared screen space with Chunky when he had just started his career. And he left a scar on her, literally, which continues to remain till date.
Neelam spoke about how irritated she was with Chunky, in an interview recently. The actress said during a chat with Radio Nasha, “There was a scene in Aag Hi Aag where I was getting married to someone else, and Chunky was supposed to come on a bike, pick me up from the mandap, and ride away. I must have asked him 10 times if he knew how to ride a bike, and he kept saying, ‘Of course.’ He didn’t know — he was joking. So he picked me up on the bike and pushed the accelerator so hard that it did a wheelie, and I was in bridal attire. I fell off, and the bike landed on top of me. I burned my leg and everything. I wanted to kill him. I still have that scar on my leg, and I still remind Chunky that I have it for life because of him.”
The actress further added she wanted to kill him on the set for this reason! “Chunky is a very good friend today. And he was a good friend back then too, but there were days when I just wanted to kill him. He used to irritate me on set because he was a newcomer. He took his own sweet time. ‘The shot is ready, cameras are set, but where’s Chunky Panday?’ Chunky Panday’s in the bathroom. This didn’t happen just once, but many times, and I just wanted to kill him,” laughed Neelam.
