Actor Chunky Pandey, known to new-generation fans as Aakhri Pasta in the ‘Housefull’ series, is set to make his Marathi film debut with ‘Vikun Taak’.
###
“Doing a film in Marathi, and a socio-comedy genre has always been on my wishlist. Marathi humour cannot be compared. I just love the language. Being born in Mumbai, speaking Marathi has never been a problem because if Hindi is my mother tongue, Marathi is my father tongue,” said the actor, who is new star Ananya Panday’s father.
###
The film directed by Sameer Patil and produced by Uttung Thakur focuses on the real-life problems of the underprivileged class in rural areas. Satire has been used to tackle the issue.
###
Thakur is known for producing slice-of-life films such as ‘Balak-Palak’ and ‘Yellow’.

“Through my films, I always want to depict cinema wherein a viewer is not just entertained but enlightened. I take personal interest in the film’s content and subject and choose a film accordingly. ‘Vikun Taak’ has a new ring to it and tackles the genre differently. It truly touched me,” said Thakur.
