Pulkit Samrat, Divyenndu, Sayani Gupta, Jannat Zubair, Sikandar Kher, Karan Anshuman, Tanya Bami of Netflix and others attended the trailer launch of the web series, Glory, at a studio in Mumbai. In a first-of-its-kind instance, a live boxing match was conducted between Pulkit, who also played a boxer in the show, and popular real-life boxer Neeraj Goyat.
RJ Mantra was the host and spoke like a true boxing commentator, enhancing the excitement. Both Pulkit and Neeraj Goyat pretended to be fierce rivals and traded not just punches but also one-liners. Divyenndu joined the madness as Pulkit's mentor and also trolled Neeraj Goyat.
The match began and all eyes were fixed on the boxing ring, specially installed at the venue. Both gave a tough fight and hence, the referees declared that it’s a draw. Later, the trio dropped the enmity and hugged each other. Neeraj Goyat said, “Huge respect to Netflix. I have been boxing for 20 years and I am trying my best to make boxing mainstream. I had only seen in Hollywood where actors play in exhibition matches. This has happened for the first time in India. And it's Pulkit who kickstarted this culture.”
As fans chanted Neeraj Goyat’s name, he requested them, “Arre bhai khiladi hoon. Jo ratta maara hai, woh baat bhool jaunga!”
He continued, “Huge respect to Pulkit. A little less respect for Divyenndu as I am yet to fight with him! Fir respect badh jaayegi (laughs).” Speaking about Glory, Neeraj drew comparisons with Karan Ashuman’s earlier show, “Aapki Mirzapur dekhi thi. Glory usse kayi gunha behtar lag rahi hai!” At this point, Pulkit whistled.
At another point in the event, Sikandar Kher revealed, “To be honest, I've always enjoyed doing accents. Having said that, Haryanvi is a little tough. If I speak about foreign accents, Australian is tougher. Similarly, even acing the Haryanvi accent was tough as well. But you have to get it right. You can't do just one word that sounds Haryanvi and the rest doesn't. Thankfully, it all works out at the end of the day.”
Mantra asked the team, “Who is most likely to keep the energy up even when everyone's tired?” Everyone took Pulkit’s name, with Karan Anshuman revealing, “He literally has more energy than all of us.”
Sikandar Kher took the cake as he said, “Did you see him when he was boxing? I was like, 'Kapde badalne kyun ja raha hai bhai?' He looks better without clothes!”
As everyone couldn’t control their laughter, Sikandar clarified, “Also, I want everybody to know that I am extremely straight!”
Glory releases on Netflix on May 1.
