Abhishek Bachchan recently made headlines for a witty comment he made on the popular talk show, Koffee with Karan. The incident occurred during a light-hearted segment, and his playful jab at Aishwarya Rai’s alleged ex-boyfriends, Salman Khan and Vivek Oberoi, quickly became a topic of discussion.
The Humorous Exchange
The exchange began when host Karan Johar asked Abhishek a provocative question. Abhishek, ready with a quick response, warned Karan that his answer might be a bit cheeky. He said, “I’ve got a really nasty one, and I’m just trying to be witty. Vivek, please don’t mind. Um, Vivek meet Salman, Salman eat Vivek.” This comment prompted a mix of reactions, with Karan Johar remaining neutral while guest Preity Zinta burst into laughter.
Abhishek’s Apology and Preity’s Twist
Following the joke, Abhishek quickly tried to smooth things over by apologizing to Vivek Oberoi. “I’m really sorry. We’re just trying to be fun,” he said. However, before the conversation could move on, Preity Zinta chimed in with her own twist on the joke. She said, “No, no. I’ve got a better one. Vivek meet Salman. Salman beat Vivek. Better than eat.” This remark sent the group into fits of laughter, prompting Karan to conclude the segment by saying, “Alright, we will just take a call on that later.”
Fans React to the Viral Clip
The video clip of this exchange soon made its way to social media, where fans shared their reactions. One commenter noted, “He had a good sense of humor before Aishwarya happened to him.” Another fan added, “He had no idea that he’ll make a triangle in the future.”
This incident serves as a reminder of how unpredictable life can be. At the time of the joke, Abhishek likely had no idea that he would later marry Aishwarya. This playful moment on Koffee with Karan not only entertained viewers but also offered a glimpse into the lighter side of celebrity interactions.
