Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar will soon be gracing The Kapil Sharma Show along with his BellBottom co-stars Huma Qureshi and Vaani Kapoor, accompanied by producer Jackky Bhagnani. The makers on Thursday morning shared a new promo from the upcoming episode in which Khiladi Kumar could be seen engaging in a friendly, fun banter with the comedian.

First, Akshay teased Kapil for not properly touching his feet as the latter made a go for it. This was followed by Kapil’s question on the action star’s epic adventures atop moving vehicles and planes in movies. Referring to the same, Kapil asked Akshay, “Ab kya chalayenge aap (Now, what will you be seen driving next)?” To which Akshay responded quickly with, “Itne saalon se tera show chala raha hoon (I have been driving your show forward for so many years, isn’t that enough)?” The actor’s response won the crowd over.
