Bollywood veteran Anupam Kher won praise on and off the sets of Khosla Ka Ghosla 2 with a heartwarming gesture that has captured attention across the industry.

The watchman, who had been serving at the location, was pleasantly surprised when Kher approached him and presented the gift. According to on-set sources, the watchman’s family had been struggling with communication challenges due to lack of a proper phone, and Kher’s gesture was aimed at making everyday tasks easier for him.

Sharing the video on his social media he wrote, "DHARMENDRA AND HIS NEW PHONE: A few days ago, at the location in Gurugram where I was shooting for #KhoslaKaGhosla2, the watchman, Dharmendra, came to take a picture with me! He didn't have a phone with a camera! He was disappointed, wondering how he would get the photo we took together. So today, I gifted him a new smartphone! Seeing Dharmendra's happiness made me very happy too! He took his first picture with his new camera with me! The cover picture is that very photo! In the Gurugram cold, there can be no more beautiful feeling than Dharmendra's smile! Jai Ho!"

Anupam Kher has long been known for his warm and generous nature, frequently engaging in thoughtful interactions that uplift those around him.

Khosla Ka Ghosla (2006), directed by Dibakar Banerjee, is a cult-favourite Hindi comedy that won hearts for its simple yet sharp take on property scams and middle-class struggles. Anchored by Anupam Kher’s memorable performance as a frustrated retired government officer, the film blended humour with everyday realism.
