Speaking to Lehren, Chunky said, ¡°I mean it¡¯s fine. I think she is 25, she is earning more money than I did. She is free to do what she wants. How dare I tell my 25-year-old daughter what to do?¡± Asked if he is okay with her doing intimate scenes, he said, ¡°Yes I am fine with it. I have seen it in Hollywood. There is no harm. You have to accept it.¡±

He also said, ¡°The proudest moment was when she got her first film, and she decided to do it. I think they found her a little very young the first time, then she went for the audition and she got the film. She also got into New York and LA colleges, there was pressure on family. I kept her college admission for 6 months, I paid some $500 dollars and kept it because who knows, it might not have worked out. So that was a proud moment, she got that film on her own.¡±

Chunky¡¯s statement has gone viral and it also started a discussion on Reddit. Praising the actor, one said, ¡°I think it¡¯s very cool for a father to acknowledge his daughter is earning more money than he ever did. Also, she¡¯s an adult so she should be able to date who she wants, make mistakes and learn from it.¡±

Another added, ¡°I like this take. She¡¯s 25 and not a child and it¡¯s good to date. Indian parents need to see their kids as adults with their own personal life- more so parents of daughters. Even if someone isn¡¯t earning or is broke doesn¡¯t mean they can¡¯t have a life. This is a sensible take.¡±
