Chunky Panday praises Varun Dhawan's old-school acting

Veteran actor Chunky Panday is preparing for the June 4 release of 'Hai Jawaani Toh Ishq Hona Hai,' where he portrays a delightfully eccentric doctor. In a recent interview, Panday described his character as an 'action-minded doctor' who enters the film amidst considerable chaos.

His character's role involves managing a highly unusual hospital situation. As depicted in the trailer, the doctor must navigate the aftermath of Varun Dhawan's character impregnating two women simultaneously. Panday highlighted that his character’s arrival amplifies the film's already chaotic premise.

Panday expressed significant admiration for Varun Dhawan and the current generation of actors, noting their advanced preparation and knowledge. He found working with Varun a pleasure, emphasizing the young star's collaborative spirit.

Comparisons were drawn between Varun Dhawan and Bollywood icons Govinda and Salman Khan, attributing this to Varun's upbringing and innate talent. Panday acknowledged that while Varun possesses qualities reminiscent of these stars, he has successfully forged his own unique identity in the industry.

The actor also reflected on the distinct universe of David Dhawan's comedies. He pointed out that while the scenarios might seem far-fetched, making them believable requires exceptional performing talent from the cast, ensuring audiences remain captivated by the on-screen world.
