Aamir Khan's hilarious ‘Baap-Beta' ad with ‘nepo kid' Junaid sets social media abuzz: ‘Funnier than his last few films'

Bollywood star Aamir Khan's latest movie, Sitaare Zameen Par, is now available on YouTube for just ₹ 100. But the Internet is still hooked on its hilarious ad featuring 'nepo kid' Junaid Khan. The advertisement to announce Sitaare Zameen Par on YouTube, titled 'Baap-Bete Ki Nayi Scheme,' showed a light-hearted banter between the father-son duo, who also take a comic dig at rejecting OTT deals worth over ₹ 100 crore. In the ad, which has got the social media abuzz with reactions, Aamir also roasted Junaid for his not-so-bright ideas, saying that they have 'ruined' him. But Aamir Khan fans were most delighted when he acknowledged that his previous few movies, including Laal Singh Chaddha and Thugs of Hindostan, were a major mood killer for his audience. In the ad, a happy Aamir Khan walks into his home only to find a man watching Sitaare Zameen Par on his phone. Agitated upon seeing his movie on a phone screen, since it hasn't been released on OTT, Aamir confronts the man, who tells him about his son Junaid's new scheme. Aamir then rushes to confront Junaid, who butters him up with the OG 'maha purush' joke. However, an adamant Aamir tells Junaid that his ideas have always ended up ruining him, and mentions the Forrest Gump remake as Laal Singh Chaddha and the making of Thugs of Hindostan. 'Mene ₹ 100 crore ka offer reject kr dia hai, aur YouTube pr daal dia hai sirf ₹ 100 mai,' Junaid tells Aamir his bright new idea of releasing Sitaare Zameen Par on YouTube for ₹ 100. Taken aback by the likely loss, Aamir insults Junaid for releasing Sitaare Zameen Par on YouTube and calls him a 'nepo kid'. Social media users were thrilled to watch the 'hilarious' advertisement and said it brought back memories of 90s hit Andaz Apna Apna. 'Ngl but this is funnier than Aamir Khan's last few films,' said a user. 'Best advertisement!' another added. A netizen highlighted: 'Aamir Khan giving amar vibes from Andaz Apna Apna.' To which another chimed in saying, 'It is funnier because they are using andaaz apna apna scenes.' 'Yeh bhi to remake hai,' added another user. Netizens also lauded the star's ability to laugh at himself and said, 'Aamir Khan might be the only superstar who openly jokes about his own flop films. That's why his fans don't fight on social media, they are the first to admit when a movie doesn't work. Never change, Aamir Khan. We love you.' 'Aamir still got the comic timing at 60 - i love his new power of laughing at himself,' another added. They also noted that the ad was funnier than most comedy movies these days. 'Believe me sir this two minute video was more funnier than the whole housefull five movie,' said a user. 'So hilarious! Aamir never lost his edge in comedy,' another said. 'Truly commendable to have directly putting the film on YouTube so people can buy and have a sense of ownership. Fantastic stuff!' they added. Netizens were the happiest by Aamir's 'nepo kid' dig at Junaid and said, ''Nepo kid' was personal.' 'I lost it when he said Nepooo kidddd,' another added.

About 'Dhadak 2' Directed by Shazia Iqbal, 'Dhadak 2' is a remake of the Tamil film 'Pariyerum Perumal.'Sequel to Ishaan Khatter and Janhvi Kapoor-starrer 'Dhadak,' the movie shows how even in today's day and age, the shadow of casteism lurks over the society. The story is about a boy falling in love with a girl who comes from an upper caste background. The girl's family uses every trick in the book to humiliate the boy and to show him that his love stands no chance because of his caste. 'Dhadak 2' review With a rating of 3.5 stars from The Times of India, here's an excerpt from our review - 'Siddhant Chaturvedi is excellent, capturing the transformation from a meek young man to a self‑assured individual. Triptii Dimri is convincing as a naive yet supportive partner, while Vipin Sharma makes a brief but memorable impact as Nilesh's father."

IND vs ENG: Zak Crawley tries to force another 'grow some f***ing balls' moment; Shubman Gill reacts

Zak Crawley and Shubman Gill (Getty Images Photo) The fifth and final Test at The Oval between India and England saw its share of tension, drama, and viral moments. One such moment came late on Day 3 when Zak Crawley once again tried to disrupt rhythm: only this time, Shubman Gill wasn't biting. During the 13th over of England's chase of 374, Crawley was seen backing away as Mohammed Siraj charged in, attempting to delay the bowler's momentum. On one such occasion, Shubman Gill, standing in the slip cordon, offered only a sly smile, markedly different from his fiery reaction earlier in the series when he had told Crawley to "grow some f***ing balls" on the stump mic for similar antics during the Lord's Test. Yashasvi Jaiswal press conference: Message from Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli help, support from Gambhir This time, Gill didn't rise to the bait. But Siraj had the perfect response three balls later. Watch: On the final delivery of the day, Siraj pulled off a stunning setup. After planting the idea of a short ball with the field, he unleashed a late, dipping yorker that snuck under Crawley's bat and shattered his stumps. Crawley was completely undone, his footwork static, his reaction too late. Siraj's celebration was emphatic, arms wide and roaring toward the dressing room. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like TV providers are furious: this gadget gives you access to all channels Techno Mag Learn More Undo A big breakthrough just before stumps. Poll Who do you think will win the final Test at The Oval? India England It's too close to call I don't follow cricket It was a vital strike, as England had cautiously moved to 50 without loss before that wicket. Crawley departed for 14 off 36 balls, with two boundaries, while Ben Duckett remained unbeaten on 34. Earlier in the day, India posted a commanding 396 in their second innings, with Yashasvi Jaiswal scoring a fluent 118. Akash Deep's unexpected 66 and solid fifties from Jadeja and Sundar helped India set England a daunting target of 374. At stumps on Day 3, England still need 324 runs with eight wickets in hand; and without injured Chris Woakes, who is unable to bat, the task has become significantly steeper.
