To talk of the concept of the show, it will have one celebrity guest for every episode and unlike other comedy shows where stars usually watch the cast perform, the star will be a part of proceedings.

In the first episode, Salman Khan will turn up at the school as himself. Ram Kapoor plays the principal and has a bunch of seasoned actors playing his staff members. They are on a mission to impress Salman so that he gives a substantial donation to the institution.

Furthermore, the superstar will recreate iconic songs such as Didi Tera Devar Deewana and Kabootar Jaa Jaa with the students of the show and we are sure his antics will leave you in splits.

The fact that celebrities are part of our performances is fresh.”
