GK Bhai se poore poore season mein poochhta rahega maine ki bhai kuch to story bata do apni. Kuch to bata do, agle ne 44 saal ke jeevan mein ek story nahi hai uske paas, keh raha bhai, koi story nahi, 18 ghante kaam karta hoon main, bas meri shaadi us din ho gayi thi, bas ye tumhari bhabhi. Maine kaha, waah maine theek hai bhai ghuma rahe ho, baat nahi batate.”(Translation: Who’s the hidden gem who keeps things to himself? GK. I’ll give him a few tags because I’ve spent time with him. The whole season I kept asking him, ‘Bhai, tell us a story about yourself.’ But he said he doesn’t have any story in his 44 years! He said, ‘I just work 18 hours a day, and one day I got married - that’s your bhabhi.’ I said, wow, okay bhai, you’re just dodging questions but won’t reveal anything!)He further described Gaurav’s personality with warmth and humour, saying, “Smart player, genuine insaan, gamer - genuine gamer, koi dikkat nahi. Aur Mridul ka bhai.”(Translation: Smart player, a genuine person, and a gamer - a genuine gamer, no issues. And above all, my brother.”)

Apna baat kar liya, khana peena kha liya. Apna mauj mein the.”(Translation: My truest friend, my brother, is Gaurav Khanna. I got along really well with GK Bhai. We had great fun together.
