&TV artistes share April Fool’s Day anecdotes!

April Fool’s Day, a day when no one willingly believes one another and everyone walks on eggshells. This day is another way to disrupt your monotonous daily life schedule in a fun way. Recollecting hilarious memories of being pranked, &TV artists Zafar Ali Mirza (Pawan Singh) and Sakina Mirza (AkanshaSharma) of Aur Bhai Kya Chal Raha Hai?, Manmohan Tiwari (Rohitashv Gour) and Danny Sharma (Anang Desai)of Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai and Daroga Happu Singh (Yogesh Tripathi) of Happu Ki Ultan Paltan share how they got fooled!

Pawan Singh aka Zafar Ali Mirza shares, “When I was in school, someone announced that there was free rajma chawal in the canteen. Hungry as ever, I rushed to grab 2 plates of the hot steaming food. After relishing the dish, the owner of the stall came up to me asking for money. That day I was not only fooled but looted too! But the rajma chawal was totally worth it!”

Akansha Sharma aka Sakina Mirza shares, “One night I woke up at 1 am and went out to get water. My mother was awake at the same time and told me it was early morning and I should get ready for school. Half-asleep I got ready in my uniform, packed my bag and was all set to take the bus. That’s when my mother started giggling and told me to go back to sleep. I was furious but just as sleepy, so that night I slept in my uniform and woke up all ready to go to school!”

Rohitashv Gour aka Manmohan Tiwari shares, “It so happened on the sets of Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai, when I was informed that 1st of April is a holiday for the entire team. I remember my children warning me that it is an April Fool’s prank. Just then I got a call from the production manager asking me to come to sets as it was a working day. I rushed to work and found out not a single soul was present.  That’s when my sneaky co-star Aasif Sheikh called me and said that aap April Fool ban gaye!”

Anang Desai aka Danny Sharma shares, “I enjoy comedy and considering my age, not a lot of people peg me as a fun and spontaneous person. I remember once a young boy came to me asking for my signature. The pen in his hand slipped and there was ink all over my white kurta. I was in a hurry and afraid I would get late. The boy started laughing and yelled Happy April Fool’s Day! When I saw my kurta, the stains vanished completely. It was as if it was merely water. Bacho ke saamne hum bade hi fool ban gaye!”

Yogesh Tripathi aka Daroga Happu Singh shares, “I am the clown on most occasions but this one time, my wife pranked me on April Fool’s Day. Our house help had not come and my wife told me to cook for the day. I managed to make two dishes and completely messed up the kitchen. Just then the bell rang, and our help walked in. My wife burst laughing and was pleasantly surprised by the food I cooked. This year I plan to get my revenge!”
