Turning towards the fan, Gaurav jokingly said, ‘Let’s read Hanuman Chalisa now. Read, read!’ The crowd burst into laughter and applause, while the fan took it in stride with his appreciation.

Gaurav then roasted and asked the fan if he understood his Hindi jokes. When he said yes, Gupta cracked another joke, ‘So you don’t understand, you won’t get it? So many years ago, you are saying, we won’t get it, we won’t get it, then you come back.’ He made this joke on the long-standing Kashmir dispute between the two countries, the crowd also started shouting after hearing this joke. Despite the boldness of this bit, Gaurav praised the fan and said, ‘Brother, you have the guts to come here. They thought the artists were banned, but the audience is still allowed.’ This clip is going viral online very fast.
