Chunky Pandey feels bad for those "who have not seen that era of zero social pressures"

Chunky Pandey recently reminisced over the current internet-fueled society and the growing media pressure. During an interview he elaborated upon his personality in the upcoming movie Jawaani Jaaneman, recalling the stark contrasts of the past.

“The party scene was crazy and we didn’t have to bother much. Even as actors, we didn’t have anyone following us crazily everywhere. I feel bad for my children, who have not seen that era of zero social pressures and a life away from mobile phones. Life was less complicated," he told Bombay Times. 

Coincidentally, it was during the time of Saif Ali Khan’s youth. Recalling his personality Chunky stated, “He was a kid back then, but he has come a long way since then. I love talking to him. He comes from another planet because no one talks like him, and no one has the kind of perspective he has on numerous subjects. I wait to meet him."

The actor’s lavish birthday parties are a prime example of his partying nature. With regards to this, Chunky said, “My New Year bash and birthday parties used to be famous and I still acquired the reputation of being a kanjoos. I think I brought it on myself. It’s said that the best way to lose friends is by loaning them money, and I also lost some of my friends like that. So, this reputation of mine keeps loan-seekers away. However, I still host people lavishly at home or elsewhere.”
