    There will be a double dose of Chunky Pandey in "Housefull 3" as he is ready to tickle the funny bone of the audience with his quirky characters Aakhri Pasta and Aakhri Aastha.
     
    "I am there in 'Housefull 3'. I am Aakhri Pasta and I have got a double role. My second role is named as Aakhri Aastha," Chunky told media here at the second edition of the Times Of India Film Awards (TOIFA) 2016 held here last week. 
     
    The actor shared more about his role in the film, which is directed by Sajid-Farhad Samji, well known writers who had made their directorial debut with "Entertainment" in 2014.
     
    This is not the first time that Chunky is playing Aakhri Pasta. He did it in the past two instalments of the comical franchise.
     
    Talking about his new character Aakhri Aastha, he said: "He is the owner of the Aastha channel and becomes an astrologer and goes absolutely crazy."
     
    The film also stars Akshay Kumar, Abhishek Bachchan and Riteish Deshmukh among others.
     
    Asked if he has any other films on his platter, Chunky said: "I am doing a film called 'Yeh Film Pakistan Main Ban Hai'".
