Chunky Pandey was never a superstar in Bollywood but he has been relevant somehow over many decades. His friendship with SRK is well known. Let’s have a #ThinkinThread about him today.
Chunky Pandey was apparently a superstar in Bangladesh. But then his superhit movies aren’t evidently that well known. It’s said he was the Shahrukh of Bangladesh. Any idea what movies he did? If you do please share here.
Chunky Pandey comes back to India and apparently he helps Shahrukh settle down in Mumbai. Their kids become friends.
Chunky Pandey hangs out with the top listers of Bollywood. 2003 onwards here is what Wikipedia has to say about his career.
But he and his wife are in the company of the superstar. Kids are best friends. Those were the fun times.
But then the rumor of the drug parties start. The wives are best friends and many blind items float about their cocaine addictions. There are many fights and fallouts that happen.
These two were close friends and then a massive fall out happens. Why is Arjun Rampal important to our story today? Because his GFs brother was recently arrested by NCB.
There is a fall out, fight and an alleged affair.
Around 2016 the blind items talk about drug addictions as well. I will probably add more blinds later or you can google. They were coming out very regularly around that time.
Over time Arjun Rampal gets a divorce and recently this happened. Chunky Pandey is still leading a quiet life without much noise. His wife is still best friends with the Khans. All good there.
But there is a lot that doesn’t really show up in the news or the blinds. But the media knows. They were always in the loop of the drug parties that happened behind the high walls and closed doors. Now they are all in it together. Focus on the fathers I say.
Gauri Khan was also caught in Berlin airport with marijuana. The news is now very hard to search and what was drugs till a few years back is now marijuana. I don’t know how searches are manipulated and old news removed completely. But I remember the news.
This very old piece was written by @Soumyadipta I normally use images because links often get taken down. This is from 2013.
It took many many years for NCB to get where they are. My request to everyone reading this thread is to please let them work. It takes courage and a spine to do what they are doing today.
In his article @Soumyadipta put a couple of links. One by telegram has been taken down. Why I can’t say. But the other link is here. The media knows. They always knew. They don’t have the balls to be real journalists.
Ananya Pandey also makes an appearance in France’s prestigious La Bal Des Paris. The other kids were Amitabh’s granddaughter, Ambanis daughter etc. THINK!
This connection is very powerful. More power to the @narcoticsbureau.

So here is a brand new #ThinkinThread with some interesting dates and facts. The dates of Rajiv Gandhis Assassination and The founding of the Rajiv Gandhi Foundation.
Rajiv Gandhi died on 21 May 1991
Rajiv Gandhi Foundation founded 21 June 1991
It was a very shocking and tragic death, and it shook the entire nation. I can only imagine the shock the family might have been under. Yet in 30 days there was a trust in place.
In those days, any Trust or Section 25 Company (now it is Section 8 Company) took more than a month to be founded. It is possible that due to the name and influence that it carried, Rajiv Gandhi Foundation would have taken a bit lesser, but not less than 20-25 days.
Lately, I have not been extremely active on Social Media, but today I read this guy write about how the beloved Math teacher picked up the gun. I got curious about his past work. So here we go. A #ThinkinThread about #BashaaratMasood's work so far.
2. Way back in 2015 he wrote this piece where the headline made a sad attempt at sounding cute. Guns and Poses?!
3. 2018 and they are still batting for the #AntiIndia gang. They try to find a cute angle about a little innocent school kid turned Fidayeen. A Fidayeen is a terrorist whose sole aim is dying during an attack and causing maximum damage.
Romesh Thapar (Journalist with TOI) is the brother of Romila Thapar (Marxist Historian) the Marxist historian. General Pran Nath Thapar, sometime Chief of Army Staff, was his paternal uncle (father's brother), and the journalist Karan Thapar is his paternal first cousin. (1)
Thapar was also related distantly to the family of Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru. Nehru's niece, the writer Nayantara Sahgal, was married to Gautam Sahgal, brother of Bimla Thapar, wife of Pran Nath Thapar. (2)
