The promo opens with Akshay asking Riteish, “Teri shaadi ko kitne saal hue hai? (For how many years have you been married?).” In response, Riteish reveals that he dated Genelia for 10 years and has been married for 14 years. Akshay then adds that he has been married for 25 years and offers free advice on learning to say sorry to one’s wife. Genelia jokes, “He (Riteish) is Sorry Deshmukh.”
Akshay then made a candid revelation about Twinkle, saying, “Meri biwi ka alag hai. Meri biwi jab merese gussa hoti hai mujhe pata hai kab pata chalta hai? Jab main sone jaata hoon. Kyunki jab main sone jaata hoon, meri side ka jo bistar hai voh geela hota hai. Uspe paane fer diya hota hai (My wife is different. When my wife gets angry with me, do you know when I realise it? When I go to sleep. Because when I go to sleep, my side of the bed is wet, she has poured water on it).” This revelation left Riteish and Genelia in splits.
