Comedy Gag: Sharma Guest House and Fun
Some guests doesn’t come with slippers and basic necessities and also children’s are advised while visiting to not lift things fallen on ground. Thus, when a child’s short falls down because of some reason he will not lift it since he remembers his elders saying him not to lift things fallen on ground. Kapil speaks of the middle class family more about the white dinner set only taken out when they are guests. There are some guests who comes and goes by giving money.

Raju comes there and speaks of not able to work there and Bittu speaks of giving him the job in the White house. Bittu then speaks of opening a guest house and taunts why would he take suggestion from Raju, Is he Ram jethmalani. Bittu wants Raju to keep a soap in every room in their house and makes him the manager. Bittu speaks that the manager has just to keep the guest about tea/coffee and also its not real since they shouldn’t get it since Bittu as receptionist will inform the manager that the tea for guest has a fly because of which they will not accept it. Raju speaks if they say yes to drink tea after knowing about fly. then Bittu makes a taunt those guests will be from his family then. Bittu wants Raju to enact a full drama and then Raju leaves from there.
Bittu speaks on phone while there are some people coming there wanting to stay in his guest house – Old man with his young wife (played by actors Rajiv thakur and Rashami Desai). Bittu was enacting on the phone that there are no rooms available and upon hearing it the old man wanted to leave and then falls down and is assisted by his young wife. She calls him Baabu but he is seen to tremble and not stand properly as well. Baabu the old man coughs and Bittu humorously speaks that he doesn’t know Russian. He replies it is cough and not Russian and bittu speaks for how many minutes he need. Bittu replies of giving the room for 3 days and asks him whether it can hold on for those 3 days. Raju comes there as a waiter in a black and white dress and the old man Baabu speaks of having tea and coffee and also informs Bittu that because of his age he need to boil and eat Banana as well. Bittu informs Raju that he will take juice and tea/coffee for them. He first threatens with high price for tea/coffee and then speaks about renting the room for 25,000 INR. He speaks of giving breakfast, and for lunch whatever remains from the breakfast, and in the dinner whatever remains from the lunch making Baabu puzzled and tries to go from there. Bittu calls the waiter cum manager Raju who informs the 300 rooms are packed and the guests are sleeping one over another and some of them in laps as well. Bittu informs the same to the old/young couple. Bittu wants Raju to give them the room no 329 which belongs to Ajay Devgn. Raju asks Bittu whether Daadi’s name is Ajay. Raju goes on to speak bad things about Daadi and then Bittu wants Raju to give them Mrs. Sharma (Manju’s) room. Raju takes them away.
Sooner then, Jay Bhanushali with his wife Mahii Vij comes there as guests and Kapil again plays the same old trick of speaking on phone and informing the caller on other end that there is no room even for Prime Minister (PM) or Chief Minister (CM). After hearing it, Mahii wants to go with her partner but stopped by Bittu who suggests whether they are PM or CM. Jay speaks that they are running to get married since his father is not happy and doesn’t believe in love then Bittu asks him whether he was born after a printout and not love. Bittu notes down their names and asks first Mahii her mobile number and then Jay asks why he didn’t asks his mobile no. Bittu replies why does he need his mobile no and then asks him to tell ? When Jay started speaking 98.. something bittu stops him and says enough invoking a laughter. He asks them what kind of room they need and the menu shows that for one night the rent is 15,000 INR. She asks him about the facilities and Jay speaks about air conditioner. Bittu speaks of giving a mint-wala Pan so that they can feel cold after drinking water with it. He then suggests them to share his room instead but he has one condition which is he will sleep in the middle between them and this is because he falls down when sleeps on side. Jay is amused and then Bittu asks them about the budget. Mahii speaks 8K INR and Jay speaks the same amount, then Bittu suggests that now the total amount is 16K INR though he was asking only 15K INR. Jay clarifies that 8K INR in total and then Bittu speaks 12K which would be fine for them and then Jay speaks that the deal is yours. Bittu then tries to take Mahii and Jay warns him what is he doing and informs him of speaking about the deal. Bittu replies that 8K is enough for the deal as they are good people. Bittu calls Raju and wants him to give room no 99 and Raju speaks that there old/young couple is sleeping. Bittu suggests that the couple will not see them since they are having poor eye sight while this new young couple are already blind in love so no issues. Bittu informs them that they have to sleep without opening the light and if they want to say anything/need in the middle of the night then they should not disturb Bittu and his family. They leave from there.
Jay and Mahii comes back and informs Bittu that they are already a old couple there. Raju comes there and cooks up a story that actually that couple is dead and their soul (Aatma) is there and Bittu suggests that they can sleep very well even crossing the soul many times. Mahii becomes angry and Jay speaks that its all nonsense and speaks that the old man was dancing after removing his Dhoti and moreover after taking bath starts to do Yoga while sitting on his stomach. Then, he realized the man is real and Bittu speaks that those people are eco-friendly and sooner then comes the old/young couple and she informs Bittu that the room they were living had a ghost. She then shows Bittu the message on phone that a young couple had died some 4 days ago. The scene changes there and it becomes dark while Mahii puts her hair completely down and Jay starts to walk like a ghost. They follow Bittu and others making them run for cover.
