Shuru ho gai hai hamari kahani,
Jahan hai dono Raja aur Rani,
Shardul Aur Sumi hai ekdam pyaare,
Yeh dono hai situation ke maare,
Milenge hum aapse jald, Ho jayega tab sab clear aur tab hum kahengey, #BadhaaiDo @JungleePictures @BhumiPednekar #HarshavardhanKulkarni #AmritaPandey pic.twitter.com/fUhYlqqLH8
