The promo shows a probable houseowner insulting a service worker over his so-called background and asks him to wait outside. But the man retaliated with a befitting reply and took a dig at him by paying him for medicine.

The show will be telecasted at 9 pm every Monday-Friday on Sony Entertainment Television and anytime on Sony Liv.

On films front, the 82-year-old was last seen in Nag Ashwin's Kalki 2898 AD, a science fiction film.

The film also starred Deepika Padukone and Prabhas alongside Bachchan.
