Mallika, Zakir and Hussain are all internet sensations but their popularity did not translate to the small screen it seems. So the makers decided to bring in famous faces.
Sajid and Shreyas will now mentor the contestants.

Sajid has helmed rib ticklers like Housefull, which also
starred Akshay Kumar and Shreyas is one of the funniest actors in Bollywood who
will soon be seen in Golmaal Again.
Mallika, who starred in Bindass’ web series- The Trip
along with Lisa Haydon, has many viral videos under her belt. She has also
collaborated with AIB to churn out some hilarious content on social media.
