The options given to them were — Thomas Tuchel, Carlo Ancelotti, Erik ten Hag, and Mauricio Pochettino.

Saiyami indicates to Abhishek and says, “Sir, hamare Chelsea fan ko options ki zaroorat nahi hai.” Abhishek said the right answer which was Mauricio Pochettino. They won Rs 20,000.

Big B said: “Chelsea 2022-23 season was very disappointing, and that’s why they have removed their former manager Graham Potter”. He then went on to say that Abhishek knows a lot about football.

Abhishek, who wore a blue suit with blue tie paired with yellow glasses, reveals, “My father and I support Chelsea FC. Once the match was not going well and his (Big B) commentary was better than the actual commentary”.

Abhishek continued saying, “dekho abhi ye miss karega. Maine bola tha na. Ek dum bakwaas player hai.”

Amitabh said: “I feel that sometimes talking like this, they (players) listen”. Saiyami nods to this and says “bilkul”, and Balki replies “correct”. The audience also agrees to Big B’s words.

Earlier, when the episode began, Abhishek made Big B sit on the seat, and helped him wipe the sweat from his face. The ‘Yuva’ fame actor then kept the tissues in his pocket.
