One of the highlights of the evening will be the delightful banter between old friends, Abhishek Bachchan and Sonali Bendre. Spilling the tea about their friendship, Abhishek will share how he played a pivotal role in bringing Sonali and her husband Goldie Behl together. Talking about this memory, Abhishek Bachchan humorously remarked that his Bhabhi Sonali is sitting right next to him. He chose her husband, Goldie for her. He is a very close friend, and he would like to take this credit, he was a Kabab Mai Haddi!" He was not actually a Cupid for them but he used to talk to Goldie when he was shooting a film Angaaray starring Sonali Bendre. He think that's the first time they had met and at that time he remember Goldie used to talk to him and say that Sonali is very nice.

Abhishek fondly recounted his early days in the industry and shared how a prank orchestrated by Sonali and Ajay Devgn during the shoot of "Major Sahab" left him in splits. "Mr. Bachchan was doing a film called Major Sahab; Sonali (Bhab) was the heroine, and we built a bond at that time. They used to bully him, Ajay & Sonali. Once we were shooting in Australia, and everyone said it's a holiday tomorrow, let's go for a movie. He took the tickets and was waiting for them outside, and they didn't come over there. They were sitting at the hotel and laughing, saying how was the movie. And at that time, he didn't have money too; he thought to sell the tickets in black on the streets of Australia; just joking.

Sonali Bendre reciprocated the sentiment, stating that yes, Abhishek has played a very important role in our love story. During 'Major Sahab,' Abhishek was like this sweet person who used to take care of us so much we used to have so much fun.
