As the audience responds with "High Sir," he makes a joke about married life that makes fans unhappy. "Maine yeh dekha hai ki bachelors ka josh hamesha high rehta hai. Hum shaadi-shuda waalon ka josh saal dar saal girta rehta hai. Par tension lene ki baat nahi hai, 4 din mein josh kam nahi hota." (I have noticed that bachelors always have high energy and enthusiasm. For those of us who are married, that enthusiasm keeps dropping year after year. But don’t worry, it doesn’t fade in just four days.")

Netizens reactions

While the remark was made on a lighter note, it did not sit well with some social media users. One user said, "We're seriously STILL making misogynistic 'marriage' jokes in 2026? should've left these on comedy nights with Kapil in 2016." Another commented, "This is an Indian man problem. They behave like something happens to them after marriage." While the third user wrote, "Vicky is doing the bare minimum as a father and now is becoming a joke of a husband too - pathetic." Another netizen said, "I don’t like it when men make fun of their marriage in public. It indirectly insults their wife & it’s not funny."

However, some users also defended the actor, saying the comment was meant to entertain the audience at the wedding and should not be taken too seriously.
