He was one of the top heroes of late '80s and early '90s, but a sudden dip in his Bollywood career hit Chunky Pandey hard. The actor says he didn't hesitate to start anew as a struggler in movies and the results have been positive.

After cementing his position in Bollywood with films like "Tezaab", "Aag Hi Aag" and "Aankhen", Chunky stopped getting work and then moved to star in Bangladeshi film for a few years, only to return with memorable roles in the "Housefull" series and "Begum Jaan".
