The highlight of the promo comes when Akshay Kumar teasingly responds to Karisma’s comment, sparking laughter on set. Turning nostalgic, Akshay addresses the audience and fondly recalls that Karisma was his first heroine, with whom he shared his first film and first song. As he compliments her beauty, the iconic song Deedar Ho Gaya, Mujhko Pyaar Gaya from their 1992 film Deedar plays in the background, recreating a moment that fans of the pair instantly recognized. Karisma’s warm smile and gracious thank you added to the emotional charm of the segment, making it a heartfelt tribute to their long-standing on-screen partnership that once ruled the box office.
