As April Fools Day brings out the prankster in many, actor Tiger Shroff seized the opportunity to pull a light-hearted joke on his Bade Miyan Chote Miyan co-star Akshay Kumar. Taking to Instagram, Tiger shared a video featuring himself and Akshay. The clip begins with Tiger shaking a large bottle of soft drink before running off to play in the garden. When Akshay joins him,  Tiger asks him to open the bottle. However, as soon as Akshay opens it, the fizzy beverage spills all over him, and Tiger and others burst out laughing as the iconic song “April Fool Banaya” begins to play in the background. An amused Akshay is then seen throwing the beverage at others.

Tiger playfully captioned the video, “April (flower emoji) bade miya.” The occasion is celebrated worldwide, with many participating in harmless pranks and jokes. As the duo gears up for the release of Bade Miyan Chote Miyan, Akshay and Tiger have been actively engaging with fans on social media, sharing entertaining behind-the-scenes moments and lively dance challenges.

In a recent post, Akshay shared a Holi-themed video in which he surprises Tiger with a coconut instead of the expected coloured water. In the video, Akshay can be seen approaching Tiger with something hidden behind his back, while Tiger holds a bucket of red-coloured water outside a building. When Akshay revealed a coconut instead of what was expected — colour — leading Tiger to drench himself with the water and wish Akshay a Happy Holi. Akshay captioned the video, “Bura na mano, Holi #HappyHoli everyone.”  The two stars have a history of friendly banter and practical jokes, adding a sense of camaraderie to their collaboration on the film.
