Srikant Tiwari is a struggling dad trying to use Gen Z lingo<\/p>\n

In a playful promo video, Manoj Bajpayee is seen filming a video with his on-screen children, Dhriti (Ashlesha Thakur) and Atharv (Vedant Sinha). Dhriti hands him a script and says, \u201cYeh lo, aapko jaise sikhaya hai na, waise bolna.\u201d (Here, take it and speak just the way you were taught.)As Manoj looks into the camera, he is surprised to see an adorable \u2018pookie\u2019 filter on his face. Reacting to it, he says, \u201cYaar iss mein main papa kam aur Pari zyada lag raha hoon.\u201d (Buddy, in this I look less like a dad and more like fairy.)He tries to read the script aloud, \u201cHello cookies, soup, your\u2026\u201d But his on-screen son Atharv quickly corrects him, \u201cPapa! Cookies nahi, \u2018pookies\u2019 hota hai. Aur yeh \u2018soup\u2019 kya hai, it\u2019s \u2018sup\u2019.\u201d (Papa! It\u2019s not \u2018cookies\u2019, it\u2019s \u2018pookies\u2019.

It\u2019s \u2018sup\u2019.)Finally, Bajpayee attempts to complete his lines, \u201cHi pookies log, a your favourite Sigma is here to tell you that the trailer of \u2018The Family Man Season 3\u2019 has just dropped and its lowkey fire and we cooked fr and its going to be a binge worthy watch and not to flex but we ate.\u201dBut he hilariously mixes up some words, saying \u2018lauki\u2019 instead of lowkey and \u2018frrrr\u2019 for \u2018for real\u2019.
