New Delhi:

Keeping up with the spirit of Throwback Thursday, we chanced upon a precious video that happens to feature R. Madhavan and  Amrish Puri. The video was posted by an Instagram account in collaboration with R. Madhavan. It featured the two actors in an ad for Pepsi. The clip begins with Madhavan and Amrish Puri running in a park. Madhavan overtakes the veteran actor in a lap. The duo later collide at a Pepsi stand and ask for a bottle each. However, the vendor is left with only one bottle which is snatched by Amrish Puri citing his seniority. The scene then shifts to a computer class where Amrish Puri is a student with Pepsi lying there on his table. Madhavan comes in and introduces himself as the teacher. He then asks for the Pepsi bottle in the form of Guru Dakshina. Amrish Puri raises his hand as if to hit Madhavan but then ends up giving him a high-five, resulting in everyone bursting into laughter.
