One of the most hilarious confessions came when Farah Khan revealed that Anil once denied playing Sonam Kapoor's father in a film. Farah revealed that Abbas-Mastan once came to Anil with a script where the filmmakers offered him a role in their film, and he was offered the role of Sonam Kapoor's father. While reacting to Abbas-Mastan's idea, Kapoor said, "Are you mad? How can I be Sonam's father?" - Farah revealed.
Another hilarious moment came when Kapil questioned Anil about which Hollywood actor he wouldn't mind being linked to. The actor replied, "Anyone."

Kapil quizzed the actor about his petition and asked if he doesn't want anyone to mimic him. Anil replied, saying, "No, in fact, I want more people to do my mimicry."
