This International Jokes Day , we celebrate not just the joy of laughter but the legacy of scenes that transformed into iconic punchlines into moments that began on screen but quickly became part of everyday conversations and viral meme culture . TV's most beloved actors, Aasif Sheikh (Vibhuti Narayan Mishra, Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai ) and Yogesh Tripathi (Daroga Happu Singh , Happu Ki Ultan Paltan ), reflect on the hilariously memorable scenes from their shows that unexpectedly became viral sensations.
Yogesh Tripathi, aka Daroga Happu Singh, shares, “It’s incredible how certain lines just catch on and become part of people’s lingo! One of the most viral scenes is when Happu, exasperated, shouts, ‘Arrey Dada, thand rakh!’ The way I said it, with that perfect mix of sass and satire, just cracked people up. I still hear fans shout it when they spot me! Another fan-favourite is when Happu proudly announces, ‘Naam hai Daroga Happu Singh!’ with that signature hair flick. That scene quickly became a meme template, and people started recreating it with their twists. And of course, how can I forget the iconic line, ‘Main 9 bachchon ka baap hoon!’ That one never gets old. It’s become a running joke that audiences just love. It shows how comedy, when it clicks, travels far beyond the screen, and becomes a part of real-life humour.”
Aasif Sheikh, aka Vibhuti Narayan Mishra, fondly reminisces, “One scene that truly went viral was when Vibhuti flirtatiously tells Angoori Bhabi, ‘I like it when you call me Nalle!’ That line became so popular that people still send me memes and reels made on it. Then there’s the ever-famous, ‘Hello Bhabiji?’—delivered with that perfect mix of charm and mischief. Fans picked it up instantly, and now it’s all over meme pages and social media. Another gem is ‘I am sarry’—Vibhuti’s exaggerated English apology. It’s been turned into a punchline for everything from relationships to work memes! The dry delivery and comic timing made it unforgettable. As an actor, there’s no bigger reward than watching your dialogue live on, being shared, laughed at, and quoted across generations. It means the performance is connected, and that’s the true magic of comedy.”
