Ajay Devgn also starred in SS Rajamouli's RRR.

Actors Ajay Devgn, Tabu and Deepak Dobriyal will appear on The Kapil Sharma Show to promote their upcoming film Bholaa. From Kapil Sharma’s amusing one-liners to the actors’ playful banter, the episode promises a good dose of laughter, going by a new promo that was shared by the channel on Friday. However, Ajay’s response to the song ‘Naatu Naatu’ winning an Oscar left the audience in splits.

Kapil congratulated Ajay for the Oscar win; the actor was a part of the film’s cast, and appeared in flashback sequences. However, Ajay had a hilarious reply. He said, “RRR won an Oscar because of me.” When Kapil asked how, Ajay replied, “Agar maine uss gaane mein naach diya hota toh (What if I had danced in the song)?” He was implying that he’s such a poor dancer, if he had danced in the song, it would never have won. The song sequence featured Jr NTR and Ram Charan.

Fans loved Ajay’s joke, and praised the actor in the comment section. One person wrote, “First time everybody saw ajay devgan smile.” Another said, “Waiting for episode.” The new promo also gives a sneak-peek of Kapil and Ajay’s fun banter. Ajay was seen asking Kapil, “Aaj tu nahake aaya hai (Did you take bath today)?”

Ajay and Tabu’s Bholaa is all set to hit the theatres on March 30. This is Ajay’s fourth directorial venture, and the actor told The Times of India in an interview that “Bholaa is a larger-than-life action spectacle with an emotional core.”
