Fun Facts About Our Beloved Pasta - 'Aakhri Pasta'
1. Aakhri Pasta's Amitabh Bachchan connection
Believe it or not, Aakhri Pasta wasn't cooked up out of thin air. Chunky Pandey drew inspiration from none other than the Bollywood legend, Amitabh Bachchan. The character's name was a nod to Amitabh's "Aakhri Raasta" (1986). Talk about a star-studded pasta pot!

3. How Aakhri Pasta was born
Here's a twist in the pasta tale! Originally, Sajid Khan, the director of Housefull, was supposed to play Aakhri Pasta himself. However, fate had other plans. At a party, Sajid had a "pasta-chat" with Chunky Pandey and offered him the role. The rest is history. Chunky took the spaghetti baton and ran with it!

4. The recipe behind Aakhri Pasta's style
