No matter if you watch a movie as a viewer who is sitting in front of the screen to get entertained or as a cinephile who is scrutinizing every scene that appears in the movie, some tiny detail is bound to slip out. Known as Easter eggs, these hidden references are an amazing addition to the overall experience. They appear as tiny little bonuses that add to your interest in the movie.

A Twitter user recently dug up an amazing easter egg from the works of Priyadarshan and shared it on his profile. The easter egg connects the movie Hungama, which was released in 2003 with another blockbuster comedy Hera Pheri, released in 2000.

In the movie Hungama, a missing advertisement gets published in the newspaper for the character Nandu Apte, played by Aftab Shivdasani, after he goes missing. In the ad, the name of Nandu’s father is mentioned as Baburao Ganpatrao Apte. Baburao was one of the leading characters in the movie Hera Pheri, played by Paresh Rawal.

However, it should also be noted that Paresh Rawal plays the role of another lead character Radheysham Tiwari in Hungama.

Sharing the details, the user wrote in the caption, “A Priyadarshan Easter Egg: The character played by Aftab Shivdasani in Hungama is the son of Baburao Ganpatrao Apte in the movie! That is the name of Paresh Rawal in Hera Pheri!”
