It’s not a secret anymore that Akshay Kumar ’s The Great Indian Laughter Challenge, which was launched with much fanfare, has failed to arrest the attention of the audience. To improve the ranking of the show, the makers recently axed co-judges Mallika Dua , Hussain Dalal , and Zakir Khan and roped in Sajid Khan and Shreyas Talpade . And now, actor Chunky Pandey has come onboard as a co-host.

With Akshay Kumar , Shreyas Talpade , Sajid Khan and Chunky Panday present on a stage, the audience can expect oodles of fun. They have tickled the funny bones of the audience in Housefull films and their reunion on the stage of The Great Indian Laughter Challenge will surely attract a lot of audiences, something the makers have been wishing since the launch of the show.

Chunky will co-host the comedy show with Elli AvrRam . Confirming the news the actor told a daily, “How could Pasta resist this lure? I begin shooting today and I think my Housefull gang has some surprises in store for me. This new character is lethal and Sajid’s brainwave. Whatever he can’t do, he makes me do. The look will be retro and he has been licensed to kill, with laughs.”
