As the movie marked 6 years of release on Friday, Shoojit Sircar shared a memorable scene from the drama on his social media handle, where Big B and Ayushmann were seen locking horns over the parking of the latter’s two-wheeler in the house, where Ayushmann is one of the tenants.
Commemorating the occasion, the filmmaker captioned the post on Instagram, “Celebrating 6 years of “Gulabo-Sitabo”. #gulabositabo @primevideo (sic).”
