He nails stunts, never misses a beat with his comic timing, playfully teases everyone, and doesn’t age a day beyond 25! This week’s guest, Akshay Kumar aka Khiladi Kumar, completely took over the The Great Indian Kapil Show Season 3 finale, leaving Kapil and his parivaar speechless and the audience roaring with laughter. For every joke Kapil threw his way, Akshay’s comeback was three times more entertaining, proving he’s not just a Khiladi but also the Haseen Ka Khiladi. When Kapil teased him about arriving late despite his punctual reputation, Akshay quipped, “Arre, mujhe pehle paise nahi mile!” The banter escalated as Kapil asked if Akshay’s long list of films meant more talent or more zaroorate. Akshay cheekily fired back, “Your show’s been on for three seasons on Netflix, plus you’ve got 2 films and a new café… tu bata, tere talent zyada hai ya zaroorate?” Well played, Akki, well played!
The episode also highlights Akshay’s daredevil side. Directors Mahesh Bhatt and Abbas-Mustan recalled jaw-dropping moments watching him perform the riskiest stunts effortlessly while everyone else held their breath. Akshay revealed he sees himself as a stuntman first, then an actor. Taking it up a notch, Kapil brought in the stuntmen who’ve worked with Akshay to honor the real Khatron Ke Khiladis. In a heartfelt moment, Akshay credited his career to these stuntmen, saying, “Mere liye asli heroes yeh hain… inki wajah se mera career hai.” The stuntmen shared touching stories of Akshay’s generosity — quietly paying life insurance premiums for every stuntman in their union for years.
