India • 13h ago • Source: publicofindia

The promotions of Ayushmann Khurrana and Sara Ali Khan’s upcoming spy-action comedy Udta Teer took an entertaining turn on Kaun Banega Crorepati 18. The actors appeared on Amitabh Bachchan’s quiz show in a special celebrity episode aired on October 5.

Sara won the opening challenge before the duo joined Amitabh on the hot seat. They had three lifelines at their disposal- Audience Poll, Sanket Soochak and MahaFlip. Ayushmann Says Sorry For ‘Budhau’ Remark! The episode soon moved beyond the quiz as Amitabh and Ayushmann looked back at their 2019 film Gulabo Sitabo. Their reunion brought back several memories from the film. Ayushmann also took the opportunity to apologise for addressing Amitabh as “budhau”, meaning an old man, in the movie. “Aapko film mein budhau kaha, I am sorry. Aap budhau nahi hain. Really life mein aap mein 84 wali koi harkat nahi hai, 24 hain aap (I called you an old man in the film, I am sorry. But you are not old. In real life, there is nothing about you that is 84. You are 24),” Ayushmann told him. Amitabh responded in his trademark style and asked, “84 wali kya harkatein hoti hain (What are the things that an 84-year-old does)?” Sara Admits She is Jealous of Ayushmann Sara then opened up about something she felt Ayushmann had an advantage over her, he had already worked with Amitabh. She said several members of her family, including her mother Amrita Singh and grandmother Sharmila Tagore, had shared the screen with the veteran actor. However, Sara was still waiting for her chance. The Paa actor praised Sara’s family and spoke about their distinctive eyes. He traced the compliment back to her grandfather, former Indian cricketer Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi. He also recalled seeing Pataudi’s mother driving an open Jaguar in Delhi. According to Big B, the confidence associated with the family seemed to have passed from one generation to another. Big B Takes On An Acting Challenge! The episode also gave Amitabh Bachchan a chance to revisit some of his most memorable performances. He was asked to deliver a Zanjeer dialogue romantically and perform a Deewar line hesitantly. He was later challenged to say the iconic “Kabhi Kabhi Mere Dil Mein Khyaal aata hai..” from Kabhi Kabhie angrily. The unusual instructions turned his iconic dialogues into a fun acting game.

The money won during the game will be donated to charity, with Sara Ali Khan and Ayushmann Khurrana selecting different causes to support.
