Many Bollywood celebrities take themselves far less seriously than you’d like to believe — Alia Bhatt’s appearance in a video that parodies her ‘dumb’ image, shows that she’s sporting enough to laugh at herself.
Abhishek Bachchan
Bachchan Junior displays a unique sense of humour and a cool, laid-back attitude, towards compliments and brickbats. Narrating his Cannes experience early this year with wife Aishwarya, where the two posed for the paparazzi, he posted on a microblogging site, “I make her look good!! Then again...
anybody compared to me will look good.”

Shah Rukh Khan
A morphed poster of Shah Rukh (as a roadside hawker) selling Ra.One merchandise went viral on the web, around the release of the film. And the actor shared it on his own microblogging page! He is also known to share fan art/sketches — both flattering and otherwise — with personal comments, which are sometimes hilarious. “Ok, will have to work out a lot more on the waist…. The kamar looks a bit kamra like. But very nice, thanx,” he recently joked about a fan’s sketch of him.

Sonam Kapoor
She was picked on for ending almost every sentence with, ‘You know what I mean’ on a talk show. A song was made on it and she sportingly shared it on social media. She says, “My friends and I laugh at it. I don’t think many people have a sense of humour, but I can laugh at myself. My sister (Rhea) also makes fun of the way I speak.” She adds, “I am not extremely articulate; I am an eccentric and flighty Gemini, so I’m constantly explaining, ‘You know what I mean’. But I have realised that I use those words a lot.”
Alok Nath
After his sanskars went viral, ‘babuji’ Alok Nath played a parody version of himself in a rap video. The song had lyrics like, “You party all night? I do aarti all night.”
