As they shared memories, Archana asked Ranvir and Vinay about the challenges they faced during their initial years. Ranvir Shorey opened up about the difficulties he encountered, recalling how his family had to give up their home when his father sold it to fund a film.

Vinay Pathak also shared his perspective, recalling times when finances were tight, yet they always found a way to manage. Though there were difficult days, he noted that they never reached a point of complete scarcity. There was always something available to keep them going, ensuring they never had to endure prolonged hardship.
On the professional front, Vinay Pathak was last seen in the film Aliya Basu Gayab Hai, alongside Raima Sen and Salim Diwan. He also played a role in Disney+ Hotstar’s series Life Hill Gayi, featuring Divyenndu, Kusha Kapila and Mukti Mohan. Ranvir Shorey recently appeared in the web series Shekhar Home, along with Kay Kay Menon, Dibyendu Bhattacharya, Kriti Kulhari and Rasika Dugal.
