Big B introduces Gulabo Sitabo tongue twister challenge

Ahead of the release of Shoojit Sircar's much-awaited Gulabo Sitabo, lead actor Amitabh Bachchan took to social media to challenge viewers with a new tongue twister challenge.

Mumbai: Megastar Amitabh Bachchan launched a tongue twister challenge on Tuesday, as a part of film promotions, ahead of the online release of comedy-drama Gulabo Sitabo.

The tongue twister: 'Gulabo ki khatar-patar se titar-bitar sitabo, sitabo ke agar-magar se uthal-puthal gulabo,' reflects the funny and unique camaraderie of the main characters of the film.

Taking to Instagram, Big B wrote: "Bas 5 baar bolna hai yeh tongue twister... Koshish karenge aap log... Karenge toh Humari chandi ho jayegi... Sivaye ek ke!"

The film, scheduled to release on June 12 on Amazon Prime Video, stars Ayushmann Khurrana and Bachchan as the lead. The two actors will be seen sharing the screen space for the first time.

Bachchan who is quite active on social media posted a video of himself on Instagram in which he could be seen trying to ace the tongue twister challenge only to get it wrong every time.

At the end of the video, the 77-year-old actor was seen asking his followers to take the tongue twister challenge and repeat it five times.

The quirky comedy was slated to hit the screens on April 17 but due to the shuttering of cinema theatres over COVID-19 crisis that could not happen.
