He wrote, “Bhai Tere sawaalon ka bachpana jab chala jaaye… Phir kuch acchha saa puchna! Tab tak temporary retirement mein reh please (Brother, when the childishness in your questions goes away… then ask something good! Till then, please stay in temporary retirement)." The tweet quickly went viral, with fans praising the 58-year-old actor for his sharp comeback.
