Akshay Kumar gets emotional at Wheel of Fortune finale, introduces his mama and says he “never missed a single episode”
Akshay Kumar, who returned to television earlier this year as the host of the Indian version of Wheel of Fortune, recently got emotional as the show nears its end. The finale episode, set to air on April 27, will feature Farah Khan, Jacqueline Fernandez, and Bhumi Pednekar.
The promo starts on a hilarious note as Akshay and guest Farah Khan indulge in a playful banter. Farah offers him a quirky gift, a pressure cooker filled with cash, and jokes, “Ismein tere liye wohi laayi hoon joh tu khaata hai (I’ve brought exactly what you like).”
As soon as Akshay opens the pressure cooker, he bursts into laughter. Farah Khan then goes to talk about the funny memory of choreographing Bhumi Pednekar and Ananya Panday. She jokingly refers to them as “Nanavati and Leelavati,” and adds, “Dono lagg rahe the hospital ki drip lagake dance kar rahe hain.” Farah's comments leaves Akshay into splits of laughter.
The fun doesn't end here as Akshay Kumar and Farah Khan joking reveal each other’s past relationships and playfully call their films Tees Maar Khan and Joker pranks on each other. After all the fun and enjoyment, Bhumi goes on to reveal that the Wheel of Fortune is coming to an end. She shares the team has also put together a special tribute for Akshay Kumar. The video montage highlights some of the show’s most memorable moments, along with a heartfelt message. "Kal se yeh manch nahi hoga, lekin aapki muskurahat yaad rahegi, aapki sharartien, nadaaniyan aur shaitaaniyan yaad rahengi. Aap yaad rahenge..."
He adds, “Mere mama bhi aaye hain, inhone ek bhi show miss nahi kiya. Mujhe batate hain, beta 9 baj jaata hai main dekhne aata hoon show (My maternal uncle is here too—he hasn’t missed a single episode. He tells me, ‘Beta, it turns 9 o’clock and I come to watch the show’). Thank you, India, for loving this show.”
Wheel Of Fortune aired it's first episode on January 27, 2026 and marked Akshay Kumar's comeback on television.
