Shah Rukh Khan, Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt have once again shared the screen for a new commercial, and the trio’s playful chemistry has quickly caught the attention of fans. The witty ad sees the three stars pitch their own film-inspired concepts, with Ranbir taking a hilarious dig at Shah Rukh and Alia teasing her husband. The commercial has also reignited fans’ long-standing demand to see the three actors together in a film.Fans have often imagined what it would be like to see Shah Rukh Khan, Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt share the big screen. While that combination is yet to happen in a feature film, their latest advertisement offers a glimpse of the trio’s chemistry. The three actors have previously appeared in commercials for the same brand.The ad begins with actor Bijendra Kala suggesting an unusual concept, Shah Rukh, Ranbir and Alia dancing to Akshay Kumar’s popular song ‘Hookah Bar’ from the 2012 film Khiladi 786. The three stars politely react to the idea before deciding to pitch their own concepts, each drawing inspiration from one of their films.
Shah Rukh Khan brings ‘Don’ to the ad
Shah Rukh is the first to present his idea, putting a construction-themed spin on his iconic Don character and dialogue.He says, “Don ko 12 mulkon ki police ne gher liya hai, par vo ghar tod nahi pa rahe kyunki vo Rungta TMT bar se bana hai.”The line references the famous Don dialogue while incorporating the brand’s TMT bars into the storyline.
Ranbir Kapoor roasts Shah Rukh Khan with his own dialogue
Ranbir then takes inspiration from his 2011 film Rockstar, but not before turning Shah Rukh’s pitch into a joke.Reacting to the concept, he says, “Is ad ko jhelna mushkil hi nahi, namumkin hai.”He then presents his own idea: “Ek Rockstar hota hai, apni life ka best performance deta hai, duniya hila deta hai, par stage nahi hilta kyunki vo Rungta bar se bana hai.”The punchline plays on Shah Rukh’s iconic Don dialogue while giving Ranbir’s Rockstar a construction-related twist.
Alia Bhatt teases Ranbir Kapoor
Alia is next, and she gets in a playful dig at Ranbir before sharing her own pitch.She tells him, “O nadan parinde, beth ja.”The line references Rockstar and is followed by Alia’s concept inspired by her 2023 film Jigra. She says, “Sir, mera wala simple, ek ladki hai, uska bhai jail mein hai, par vo jail tod nahi pa rahi kyunki jail TMT bar se bana hai.”Her pitch turns the central premise of Jigra into another tongue-in-cheek advertisement concept.
