Vidya Balan is all set to return as Manjulika on the big screen with the movie Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3. Directed by Anees Bazmee, the horror comedy also stars Madhuri Dixit, Kartik Aaryan, and Triptii Dimri. If there's one thing we have noticed during the promotions of BB3 is the rapport the star cast shares, especially Kartik and Vidya. It looks like the actors had a lot of fun while working on the film together.

Recently, in an interview, Kartik Aaryan opened up about refusing to endorse paan masala ads. The actor had earlier talked about it and also recently about how the brands would tempt him with several things, but he didn't change his mind. While talking to Siddharth Kannan, the Chandu Champion star got candid about refusing to do such ads. He was joined by Vidya Balan, who gave a hilarious answer.

Vidya Balan said how there was a "competition" between a paan masala ad and a condom ad and Kartik had to choose one. Listening to Vidya's answer, the Luka Chuppi actor couldn't stop laughing. To the uninformed, Kartik endorses a condom band and has been doing it for quite some time now. The Kahaani actress further said that Aaryan chose to endorse a health product instead of paan masala and it's a great thing.

Further in this entertainment news, Kartik Aaryan couldn't stop laughing listening to Vidya Balan's answer and wanted her to stop. Aaryan then responded, "Yes, that’s exactly what I chose. Safety first."

Often, celebrities who endorse these paan masala brands are slammed by netizens online. Ajay Devgn and Shah Rukh Khan have been associated with a brand, with which even Akshay Kumar had joined hands. However, the PadMan star received a lot of flak online and he immediately stepped down as the brand ambassador.
