Akshay Kumar, the undisputed master of Bollywood pranks, just got pranked back by Vamika Gabbi’s terrible jokes – and the internet can’t get enough. The ‘Bhoot Bangla’ co-stars shared a hilarious Instagram reel where Vamika unleashes her arsenal of dad jokes on a visibly uncomfortable Akshay.
The exchange starts innocently enough. ‘Sir, what’s English for an aunt who stays far away?’ Vamika asks. Akshay ponders, but she jumps in with ‘Far-macy!’ His eye-roll is epic.
Next up: ‘Police nabbed two badminton players. Reason?’ Akshay shrugs helplessly as Vamika explains, ‘They had a racket!’ The puns keep coming, escalating to ‘Where can’t you sing? Nagaland!’ Akshay finally cracks, laughing uncontrollably and begging, ‘Yaar, bas karo.’
Posted with the caption tying it to their new film, the video has racked up millions of views. Comments flood in, praising Vamika’s deadpan delivery and Akshay’s priceless reactions.
‘Bhoot Bangla,’ a spooky comedy helmed by Priyadarshan, hit screens on April 17. Alongside Akshay and Vamika, it features Tabu, Paresh Rawal, Rajpal Yadav, and Mithila Palkar. Backed by producers Akshay Kumar, Shobha Kapoor, and Ekta R Kapoor, the film revisits Priyadarshan’s signature horror-comedy style from ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa.’ While audience responses are varied, the promotional antics like this are winning hearts.
This playful roast highlights the fun dynamic on set, making fans eager for more from this quirky ensemble. Bollywood’s comedy scene just got a fresh, groan-inducing boost.
