While Chunky Panday has been deemed perfect for comedy, especially after the Housefull series, the actor wants to explore other genres. Making his web debut with the Kunal Kemmu-starrer Abhay 2, the actor hopes the thriller garners more eyeballs and subsequent offers in the future.

Not new to the negative space, Panday says his character in the eight-part series, while negative is "three-dimensional". "I did my first negative role in Begum Jaan [2017], then in Saaho [2019], but my character in Abhay 2 is in a different zone," says the actor explaining that his character may seem normal like "sweet uncle", but not when it comes to feeding his cannibal instinct.
