When Jackie Shroff Revealed Where He Picked Up His Lingo From
Mumbai: Bollywood's OG Bhidu, actor Jackie Shroff is known for his uber cool attitude, and his tapori language. The actor once revealed on the quiz based television show 'Kaun Banega Crorepati' as to where he learnt the language from. Jaggu dada attended the show with 'Border' co-star Suniel Shetty. Show host Amitabh Bachchan asked Bhidu out of curiosity as to where he picked the language from. Big B asked, 'Where did you learn the Bidu language? How did you learn it?' Responding to the same, Bhidu said, 'Sir, earlier, the area was such that the language was spoken in such a way that the ears were open. The mouth was closed, so you could learn what you were saying. And then there was you'. He further mentioned, 'In all your films, you were the one, right? We came later. You have given us the complete language of Mumbai. I mean, you have given us good language as well. But the language of Mumbai that we speak, sir, you have given us that beautiful language as well. There was a dialogue of yours as well'. Big B said, 'Oh, yes! In real life. It was in Amar Akbar Anthony. I was standing in the corner and someone ran towards me, so I hit him on the leg and he fell down. Yes. I caught him. 'Aisa to Aadmi Life mein Doich time bhaagta hai. Olympic ka race ho, yaa Police ka case ho' (A person runs like this twice in his life if it's an Olympic race or a police case). Why are you running, brother?'. Earlier, Jackie met the IPL team Mumbai Indians prior to the IPL finals, and retracted to his younger self. The actor shared a joint post with a fitness brand, a video of himself interacting with the players of the MI squad. Jackie, who grew up in the Teen Batti area of Mumbai, is a true Mumbaikar, and it reflects in his language, and social conduct.

Housefull 5 movie review: Akshay Kumar leads yet another loud, formulaic farce
Me: Oh brain, braaaain. It's that time again. Dead Silence Me: Don't sulk. You know the drill. Brain: Mmmmph. Me: Oh there you are, gtg, brb. Brain: I thought it's been six years, maybe they had forgotten about the fifth edition of Housefull. Didn't you have enough after the fourth? What kind of a masochist are you? Don't you know when to stop? Me: Who asked for a speech? Just doing my job. Bfn. Groan! Minutes later: Brain: So? Me: Mmmmph. Brain: Hahaha. Spill it. Me: Well, if you insist. There's this luxury liner, and that old lusty fellow, played by who else but Ranjeet, pops it, and leaves his billions to his son, called Jolly. Three Jollys show up, Riteish, Abhishek and Akshay. Each has a wife/girlfriend, can't give you their names because they are all wispy and leggy and silly. There's a fourth son (Fardeen Khan) from a second wife. There's Aakhri Pasta, no need to tell you who plays him, because by now the poor fellow must have forgotten his real name. There's Johny Lever being Johny Lever, and Sanjay Dutt and Jackie Shroff playing Bhidu and Baba or is it Baba and Bhidu. There's also a hulky ship captain. And a doctor who's allergic to peanuts. And Nana Patekar in a dhoti and kurta. Oh, and there's a killer loose. Also Read | Housefull 5 movie release live updates Brain: And? Me: Memory-loss inducing drugs coloured a virulent blue. DNA test labs. Masked murderers. And a rainbow-coloured parakeet. Brain: The same one which got sucked into a vacuum hose? Me: Who knows? All I know that the bird has a bigger speaking part than some of the ladies, but what can you do, there are so many characters, the writers must have had a hard time handing out an equal number of lines to each. But then they must have thought, oh, they're all birds, so that's okay. Brain: Phew. Me: Right. Actually, I have to say that compared to the previous Housefulls, this one has a slightly fuller house, but because no one expects anything else, it's pretty much like the older ones– characters tumbling over each other, crass jokes about body parts and fluids (how can they not be there) abound, and yes, there's that classic climactic human chain, where the entire cast is yelling and screaming and shouting and… Brain: Stop, I'm hurting. Me: You asked for it, so shut it, and listen. Brain: You mean there's more? Me: Well, it did get to the point where it's all a blur, and I managed a nap, and WHY ARE THESE FILMS SO LONG? And Akshay roams around the ship's hallway with a long tail… Brain: Wait what? Me: It's plastic, and a prop, and all the Jollys are in bed with women who are not their wives. One turns out to be a man… Brain: No more. I'm exhausted. How did you survive? Me: The only thing that kept me going was the knowledge that it will all get over, everything does, right? And oh, Nana Patekar has a Marilyn Monroe moment, and the Khalnayak theme song keeps getting played, and Baba and Bhidu keep smirking and skulking, and… Also Read | Housefull 5 advance booking: Akshay Kumar comedy sells tickets worth Rs 9.84 crore, breaks Kesari's record Brain: QUIT RIGHT NOW. I feel for you. But serves you right, right? Me: Right.
