Yuvraj & Harbhajan on Dus Ka Dum

The first celebrity episode of Dus Ka Dum is with cricketers Yuvraj and Harbhajan. Yuvi and Bhajji brought the house down with their banter and quick wit. The fun-filled episode is replete with anecdotes from the two cricketers.

To a question on how many Indians think that "Mard ko dard nahin hota…" Bhajji replied, "Mujhe to bahut hota hai! When I got the ball on my ribs I was pretending that I was alright but actually I could barely breathe!" he said with a grin. Salman too narrated an incident when a driver drove the car right over his toes and how he pretended it was okay but the foot in question had swollen alarmingly in no time.

When Salman asked the duo how they play untiringly during cricket matches while he gets exhausted just running during shoots, Bhajji quickly retorted, "It depends on who you are running after. Was it Vivek Oberoi?" Later when Salman asked the two who their favourite actress was, Yuvi wickedly said, "Katrina Kaif" to which a blushing Salman said, "Mine too." But Bhajji tried to be politically correct and said, "Lara Dutta - but I like Katrina too!"

Yuvi with Bhajji's support reached the Rs 1 Crore mark - a first on Dus Ka Dum. It was celebrated in style! Of the Rs 1 Crore they won, the two buddies decided to give Rs 50 Lakh to Salman's Charity Foundation, Rs 25 lakh to the charity run by Yuvi's mom and Rs 25 lakh to a little boy who was in the news recently and whose plight touched Bhajji's heart.
