Fans' Disbelief Over Bearded Transformation
Speaking about the immense popularity of his character, Gaurav Gera opened up about the challenges of recognition. He explained, "Bahut saare log toh pehchaan hi nahi paate dadi ke wajah se. Unhe vishvaas hi nahi hota ki woh main hi tha" (A lot of people are still unable to believe that it was me in that character, mostly because of the beard). This heartfelt confession highlighted the transformative power of his performance.
Akshay Kumar's Humorous Advice
To this, host Akshay Kumar responded with his trademark wit, jokingly suggesting, "Ek nakli dadi le kar ghuma karo. Jab koi pehchaane nahi toh fataak se laga diya karo haan bhai, main hoon!" (Keep a fake beard with you. The moment somebody shows disbelief, wear the beard and prove it to them). This playful exchange added a light-hearted touch to the episode, showcasing the camaraderie between the host and his guests.
