Bollywood star Akshay Kumar, infamous for chopping scenes of his co-stars for more footage, had a change of heart when it came to Chunky Panday.

Akshay increased Chunky's scenes in their last outing "Housefull" and also gave him opportunities to enhance his scenes.

"When Akshay and I shot scenes together, he suggested many improvisations for me to do in those scenes that were scripted. He allowed me to do more in certain scenes than himself, " said Chunky.

"He was very unselfish as an actor and his suggestions really upped the quality of many scenes (in the movie), " he added.

Directed by Sajid Khan, the movie that was declared a hit, also starred Lara Dutta, Deepika Padukone, Jiah Khan, Riteish Deshmukh, Boman Irani and Arjun Rampal.
