Kapil Sharma praised Anurag Basu for being a multitasker with a wide range of skills, including cooking. Anupam Kher revealed that Basu even knows how to dance. While everyone was complimenting, the filmmaker emphasized that anyone entering the film industry should have a Plan B, which is why he learned so many diverse skills.

Following Anurag Basu, Pankaj Tripathi mentioned that he also knows how to cook, as he had previously worked as a chef in a hotel.

Anupam Kher then shared that he used to give massages. When everyone laughed at this revelation, the actor shared his story. He said, "After I finished my course at National School of Drama, all my formal education from first standard to third ended."

The actor then recalled that he saw an advertisement where a hotel was offering a massage course. Anupam added, "Maine 3 mahine ka massage ka course kiya. Massage ki bhi thi 2 mahine (I did a massage course for 3 months. I even did massage for 2 months)."

I did it for Danny. When I was giving massage to Shilpa Shirodkar's mother, the electricity went off)."

He added, "Shilpa Ji ki mother kar rahi thi 'Oh Anupam!' (Shilpa's mother was saying 'Oh Anupam!')." This left everyone in splits.
