Actor Shreyas Talpade loves to play pranks on his co-stars and unit members. His experience on the sets of "Kamaal Dhamaal Malamaal" was no different.

Taking co-star Nana Patekar and a sporting Shailendra Singh into confidence, Shreyas made the crew members drink karela (bitter gourd) juice.

Calling it his morning ritual for a healthy mind and radiant skin, Shreyas made the unit report to the sets 30 minutes in advance and go through laughter therapy followed by a gulp-down session of karela juice.

The unsuspecting unit members drank the juice only to realise that Shreyas had pulled a fast one on them.

However, the actor didn't know he would end up being a part of the prank himself.

When Shreyas grinned ear to ear, and went back to his cup of coffee, someone had cleverly switched it with karela juice. Not one to be perturbed, Shreyas drank the juice with a straight expression only to have everyone laughing.

When the unit discussed the joke with filmmaker Priyadarshan, he only had one thing to say: "If they have guts, tell them to pull it on Paresh (Rawal)."
