He downs a full bottle of desi daaru and - in true tapori style - kicks up a mass frenzy with his nagin dance. Welcome Abhishek Bachchan as Nandu, the baap of all taporis, in the latest teaser from the movie Happy New Year.
Nandu proudly tells SRK, "Charlie Bhai, apun ka jo snakes dance hai na, woh akha Sangam chawl mein world famous hai." And before Charlie can utter so much as a murmur, Junior B's at it.
Cut to the next scene, and Nandu, this time fully suited, gets a fit of the jitters as he makes what appears to be a heist attempt with Sonu Sood. Charlie (SRK) sternly tells him, "Nandu tum akele nahin ho, Johnny bhai bhi tumhare saath hain."
No, Johnny bhai is not Johnny Lever, as Nandu initially assumes, but a bottle which Charlie has packed for him to soothen his nerves. The fully charged Nandu plunges himself into his work chanting, "Nandu Bheede, dimag mein keede."
Happy New Year, which also stars Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, Boman Irani, Sonu Sood and Vivaan Shah, hits theatres on October 24.
