Arjun Kapoor posted a video on his Instagram on Wednesday where the actor berated a “friend” and “colleague actor” Madan Kumar for making him wait on set for hours. The video is a clever and fun promotion for Prime Video’s upcoming period drama Jubilee. Other Bollywood greats such as Bhumi Pednekar, Sonakshi Sinha, Ayushmann Khurrana, Himesh Reshammiya, Malaika Arora, Anurag Kashyap, Rajkummar Rao, Milind Soman, and Baba Sehgal posted similar videos of top celebrities getting upset over Madan Kumar’s tantrums.

Created and directed by Vikramaditya Motwane, Jubilee is set in the 1940s and 1950s and chronicles the journey of fictional Bollywood superstar Madan Kumar (played by Aparshakti Khurana). Ahead of the show’s launch, Prime Video brought together some of the biggest names in Bollywood to promote it in this unique way. While Arjun’s video led him to complain about how Madan kept him and a boy waiting outside his powder room for three hours, filmmaker Anurag Kashyap complained about Madan not giving him dates.
Other stars, including Aparshakti’s brother Ayushmann, also said they were upset by her sudden rise to fame and how Madan’s “overnight superstar status” is causing them serious problems. In “Jubilee” Madan Kumar is portrayed as a young actor who gets his big break right after the split and becomes the industry’s ultimate hero in a few years. The drama fuses fiction and real life to create a new world filtered through film and story.
