Tomorrow’s April Fool’s Day. It is a day to play pranks on whomever one finds gullible enough. Just like us, TV celebs too love fooling people and have been a ‘victim’ of some hilarious pranks. Here's what the TV stars have to say -

Adhvik Mahajan - I was finalized as a lead for a big budget film when I was totally a newbie. I landed at the film city as I was called there for the shoot. But when I reached there, I got to know there was no such shoot and it was April 1! I was actually made April fool by two close friends. If you ask me, I would like fool Aamir Khan because he is considered one of the wisest men in India and would really want to see whether he gets fooled or not.

Aniruddh Dave- Once in Jaipur, a friend had called me to his home for dinner as his mother had made special Pav Bhaji for me. When I reached his doorstep, I found the door locked! I realized it was April Fool’s day. Personally, I want to fool an actor friend of mine who had fooled me on Holi.

Shashank Sethi- I once was very thirsty and went to my girlfriend’s house and asked for cold drink. She gave me Thumbs up, and I gulped up in one go, only to realize that the drink had green chilies juice mixed in it. This April 1, I would like to play a prank on my friend who has fooled me couple of times. I intend to take him to a restaurant and vanish from there without letting him know.

Sambhavana Seth- Last year, I was doing a story for a channel and they wanted me to faint on the sets to scare the production people. I did what they said. But the moment I fainted everyone got scared. They all came rushing to me and then I screamed it was simply an April Fool’s joke. However, this act angered them but things did get better later. This year I wish to play a prank on a friend.

Roopal Tyagi - I was fooled liberally by my neighbor cum friend in Bangalore. I had taken part in the Kaun Banega Crorepati junior contest via phone. He knew it. So he called me from a different number and asked me a few questions. When I answered them correctly he said won a lakh of rupees and was also selected to be a part of the show! Hearing this, I jumped with joy and even bought sweets home to celebrate. I told my entire family about it only to realize in the evening that my prankster friend had fooled me. Then I took revenge by carefully slitting a 5 star and inserting a very spicy green chilly in its center only to feed him. This year, I will fool someone for sure. But can’t reveal my mysterious plan.

Ankit Gera - I don't believe in this April fool thing at all. Most of my friends tried bulling me but they could never do it. I would like to play a prank on my show’s production people by telling them that I am not well.

Vahbbiz Dorabajee - Well, I would definitely want to play a prank on Vivian because usually he is such a big prankster. In school we fooled all our teachers by offering them plastic food such as cashews and almonds.

Yash Gera - One of my friends invited me for his wedding but I had forgotten that it was 1st April. To celebrate my friend’s wedding. I went to Chandigarh from Mumbai last year. On my part, I would like to play a prank on Madhuri Dixit. It will be interesting to see how she reacts.

Arif Zakaria - When I was in college, I was called for a rehearsal by my theater group and I landed on April 1st to realize no one has turned up. But if you ask me, I seriously wish the Malaysian airline MH 370 reveals itself and the pilots say “how was that for April fool’s day?”

Gunjan Uterja - Pranks are a part of everyone’s life .We had kept a matka with red cloth and nimbu mirchi in the middle of the road it was hilarious to see traffic stopping there for about 15 minutes until we removed it. I would not like to fool anyone this time but definitely will have pranks with my friends .I am planning to call people over for lunch and serve them butter milk spiked with bhang.

Rucha Gujarathi - When I was in college my friends knew that I am interested into acting. One day, they told me that a few directors are coming to my college to choose actors for their movie. My friends coaxed me to audition for the role. Excited with the prospect, I dressed up accordingly but when I reached my college, I came to know my pals had fooled me. The good part was that I received compliments for my make-up etc. My wish is to fool Cyrus Brocha as is a master in making bakras out of everyone.

Rohit Bhardwaj- Once a friend of mine told me that he has booked an entire theatre to watch SRK’s film DDLJ and all our college friends are coming over including the girl I had a crush on. I got ready for the fun and went to the theatre to see a ‘house full’ board! My friend later told me that it was a prank. I had realigned my schedule to watch the film for the tenth time. I will fool that friend of mine this year.

Jay Soni - I have always played prank on others. I enjoy playing pranks. Once I had called fake cops and scared my dance instructor and the students. I would like to play a prank on my wife Pooja this year after all it’s our first April fool after wedding.
