Meet Bollywood's biggest miser actor who lost superhit movies over Rs 1-2 lakh, now has a net worth of Rs 160 crore, his name is...
Often, luxury is something we witness in the lives of every Bollywood actor. From expensive cars to extravagant homes, one will find everything in the lives of B-town celebs. However, do you know who is the miser actor among all the famous faces of the showbiz industry? If not, then keep scrolling to unravel this mystery. Bollywood's Miser Actor is… Where, on one hand, celebs would want to have a chauffeur-driven car or handbags worth lakhs, this actor lost a superhit movie after negotiating over a lakh or two. If you are wondering who this star is, then let us tell you we are talking about none other than Chunky Panday. 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.

The Great Indian Kapil Show: Shilpa Shetty roasts sister Shamita Shetty, Huma Qureshi's mother warns Kapil Sharma. Watch
As India gears up to celebrate Raksha Bandhan on August 9, The Great Indian Kapil Show is bringing together two of Bollywood's most beloved sibling duos, Shilpa Shetty and Shamita Shetty, and Huma Qureshi and Saqib Saleem, for a fun-filled festive episode. A promo of the upcoming episode, leaked on social media, promises laughter, teasing, and plenty of sibling banter as the guests hilariously call each other out. Shamita Shetty and Shilpa Shetty, Huma Qureshi with her brother Saqib Saleem and mother, grace Kapil Sharma's show. Shilpa Shetty roasts Shamita Shetty on Kapil Sharma's show In the promo video, Shilpa jokes about Kapil Sharma's weight loss, to which he quips back that he must've learnt it from her, joking that he's growing shorter by the year. When Kapil asks if Shamita shares everything with her sister, Shilpa replies, 'She only hides boyfriend matters with me.' Shamita quickly responds that she doesn't hide it anymore, and Shilpa confirms, 'It's because she's single now.' Kapil cheekily asks Shamita, 'Otherwise you like men, right?' to which she exclaims, 'Of course!' — leaving her sister in splits. Shilpa doesn't hold back and even roasts Shamita's dating choices. When Sunil (dressed as a girl) asks, 'What should one see in a man?' Huma says, 'Handsome, tall,' and Shamita adds, 'Intelligence.' Shilpa then turns to her sister and quips, 'Lekin tu fir intelligence dekhti kyun nahi hai? Sirf body dekhti hai' (But then why don't you look at intelligence? You only look at the body). Huma Qureshi's mother warns Kapil Sharma Meanwhile, Huma and Saqib make a dramatic entry holding a giant rakhi to tie on Kapil. Later, Kapil is seen interacting with Huma's mother, who is in the audience. Jokingly, he says, 'I got married waiting for Huma,' to which her mother replies, 'Vo shuru se aapko bhai bolti hai, aur uski laaj rakhna chahiye aapko, nahi manoge to fir…' (She's been calling you 'brother' from the beginning, and you should respect that. If you don't, then…). A startled Kapil is then heard saying, 'Inka koi mike band karo, gundi hai aapki mummy?' (Turn off her mic — is your mum a goon?). About The Great Indian Kapil Show Hosted by Kapil Sharma, the show blends sketch comedy, celebrity interviews, and stand-up, with a familiar ensemble cast including Sunil Grover, Kiku Sharda, and Krushna Abhishek. The latest season has seen Navjot Singh Sidhu return as a permanent guest alongside Archana Puran Singh. A new twist this season allows fans to take the stage and showcase their talent. New episodes stream every Saturday on Netflix.

Stephen A. Smith claps back at Michelle Obama's ‘offensive' ESPN remarks, gives her sharp lesson on reality TV, voting
Stephen A. Smith has responded to Michelle Obama's harsh criticism of ESPN this week, slamming the former First Lady for making 'offensive' remarks about voting for Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential elections. Stephen A. Smith told Michelle Obama that 'you will never hear me utter a negative word about you.' (REUTERS) Smith's statement comes as Obama chastised ESPN and its on-screen personalities, including First Take star Smith, on the most recent episode of her 'IMO' podcast. The former First Lady compared the network to reality TV show 'The Real Housewives of Atlanta'. 'It's the same drama, and they're yelling at each other, and they don't get along, you know? I mean, Stephen A. Smith, he's just like every other talk show host,' she stated, as per Daily Mail. Stephen A. Smith says he is 'still a bit salty' at Michelle Obama Later, Smith hit back at Obama on the new episode of his YouTube show. After encouraging Obama to invite guests with 'dissenting' viewpoints to the IMO podcast, he chastised Obama's remarks about Trump and the Republican party before the presidential election. 'Michelle Obama, I wanna take this opportunity to remind you that while you are revered by me personally, and I truly, truly mean that with the greatest sincerity, I'm still a bit salty at you,' Smith stated. He reminded her that she stated that voting for Trump means vote against her and fellow women during her campaign. 'I want to say for the record - I took major offense to that.' Also Read: Trump blasts Charlamagne tha God as 'low IQ individual' over Epstein files remarks: 'He has no idea what words…' Targetting Obama, he said that it was the only thing that he did not like or appreciate, adding that there are so many factors that influence where your vote will go. 'For some people, it's all about the economy. For others, it's all about national security. For some people, it is immigration. For some people, it's safety in the streets of America. Long before they think about pro-choice or pro-life,' he continued. After hearing the analogy to the Real Housewives, Smith went on to call Obama 'sensational'. 'So this doesn't have anything to do with what you were talking about, how sports and reality TV mirror one another, even though we would beg to differ,' the ESPN anchor said. 'You are so wrong': Smith to Michelle Obama He mentioned reality TV frequently uses fictitious settings and scenarios in order to elicit reactions and other things. 'We're at sports, that's live entertainment, and you're actually competing against one another is big time. No, reality TV is not like that. You're so wrong about that, about that assertion, but that's neither here nor there.' In his concluding remarks, he gave a message to Obama, saying that 'you will never hear me utter a negative word about you.' He, however, added that he still remains 'pretty salty about what you said about us.'
