The third episode of Koffee With Karan will feature actors Akshay Kumar and Samantha Ruth Prabhu, a new teaser revealed. The popular talk show returned for a 14th season earlier this month and has already featured guests Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt, Janhvi Kapoor and Sara Ali Khan.
The teaser opens with Johar introducing his guests, while Kumar picks up Prabhu in his arms as they make an entry. As they take the couch, Johar mentions Prabhu, the number one female star in the country, was lifted by the leading and most successful actor. Prabhu cheekily mentions said that she did not mind being carried in by Kumar.

Johar also attempted to broach the topic of Samantha’s marriage with Naga Chaitanya, but she cut him off and said that the filmmaker is the reason behind bad marriages, sorely because of the idyllic scenarios presented in his films. Kumar joined in the conversation and said he is happy to have found a ‘jodidaar’ to take their host's case. Samantha and Chaitanya separated last year.
Later in the ">episode, Kumar and Prabhu try out a bunch of dance forms, take on a quiz and try their wit on the infamous rapid-fire round. During his turn, Kumar is asked what he would do if he was in Will Smith’s place at the Oscars, and comedian Chris Rock joked about his wife, Twinkle Khanna. “Pay for his funeral,” he retorts. Smith was banned from the Oscars for 10 years after slapping Rock on stage after the comedian joked about Jada Pinkett Smith’s medical condition.
The episode is expected to release on July 21. The episodes of Koffee With Karan are available to stream on Disney Plus Hotstar to subscribers of the OTT platform and is updated every Thursday at 7 pm IST.
Meanwhile, on the work front, Kumar was last seen in Samrat Prithviraj with Manushi Chillar. His upcoming projects include Raksha Bandhan with Bhumi Pednekar, Ram Setu with Jacqueline Fernandez and Selfiee with Emraan Hashmi.
Prabhu, best known for her Telugu hits such as Oh! Baby and Ye Maaya Chesave, was last seen in Amazon Prime Video show The Family Man. She also had a guest appearance in Allu Arjun's Pushpa.
