When Shahid Kapoor delivered a speech inspired by 3 Idiots’ Chatur at Screen Awards 2010, watch

The actor first greeted 3 Idiots producer Vidhu Vinod Chopra and director Rajkumar Hirani.

Shahid then looked for actor Omi Vaidya, who played Chatur, in the audience. In a memorable moment, the host hilariously asked, “Chatur, where are you? Come on, show us your tofu!”

Shahid added, “Aur hum logon ne yahan 3 Idiots ke style mein ek speech tayaar ki hai, aur main aasha rakhta hoon ke woh khamne Rancho ne usko kharaab nahi kiya hoga. Change nahi kiye honge, main check karta hoon ek minute (And we’ve prepared a speech here in the style of 3 Idiots, and I hope that mischievous Rancho (Aamir Khan) hasn’t changed it. Hopefully, nothing has gone wrong—I’ll just check for a minute).”

It was shared in Aamir’s voice note, “Ab dekhna, maza aayega. Kya hai ki maine ‘ache’ words ki jagah ‘tuchche’ words daal diye, enjoy.”

Shahid started his speech, “Adarniya vishishta atithig… Neetra gaan, darshak gaan aur baaki ke sabhi gaan. Main aapko prafullit hriday se kehna chahta hoon ki aap sab kitne ‘tuchche’ lag rahe hain.”

Jaya Bachchan, seated in the audience, was seen thoroughly enjoying this act.

“Aur main yahan pe aapka sabse ‘tuchcha’ host hoon aur main aapko batana chahta hoon ki Screen Awards sabhi awards mein se sabse ‘tuchcha’ awards hai. Aur is tuchche award ke through, pichhle saal ki 5 sabse ‘tuchche’ filmon ko aaj yahan sammaanit kiya ja raha hai. Taliyaan.”

Shahid Kapoor’s flawless imitation of Omi Vaidya’s Chatur, complete with the character’s accent, stutter, and quirky mannerisms, became an unforgettable highlight of the night.
