The show host Akshay Kumar who follows a strict discipline and wakes up early brought his health crusade to Wheel of Fortune. Akshay used a funny but serious approach to challenge contestant Sahil from Sarangpur U.P who works as a film director and claims to be a food lover to commit to a transformation through fitness at that moment when he stood before an audience of millions.
The segment kicked off when Sahil solved a puzzle based on the category of food, and he could sense Sahil’s deep passion for exploring various cuisines. Akshay Kumar, on a curious note, asked him “Sahil, jaise tu yaha iss show mein sabke paise khaa raha hain vaise heen, agar tujhe mein aise alag-alag type ka khana duga toh tu khayega?” Sahil confidently responds to Akshay by stating “Sir mujhe itna farak nahi padta main starters bhi main course jaise khata hoon aur jaise main, itne paise kama raha hoon toh main paise khana pasand karuga.”
Akshay, considering Sahil’s statement, challenges him on national television by saying “Thik hain Sahil, agar tu aage aur paise kamayega toh aaj tu national television pe bolega ki tu 6:30 shaam ke baad khana nahi khauga.” Sahil promises to Akshay in Wheel of Fortune that if he reaches till the bonus round, he won’t consume any food after 6:30 in the evening. Akshay points out to the audience by saying “Majaak nahi kar raha lekin iske ache ke liye bol raha hoon, humare shastron mein likha hain ki suraj dhalne ke baad ghar ka stove bandh kar do kyuki peth ka stove bandh ho chuka hain.”
Akshay after sharing such an important health fact with the audience, Akshay pointed out that the reason he came up with this topic is that he cares for Sahil’s well being and advises him to keep monitoring the kind of food he is consuming on a daily basis. Continuing the conversation, he as well aware of Sahil’s eating habits he comes up with a witty punchline for Sahil by stating “Main jaanta hoon teri wife ne tere liye diet chart banaya hain aur tu shamke baad khaana nahi khayega yeh bhi tune sabke samne bol diya hain, lekin iska matalab yeh nahi ki tu dopahar ko saara kitchen khajayega.”
The remark left the audience and Sahil in splits, perfectly balancing Akshay’s serious stance on health with the light-hearted spirit of the show.
