The actor said, "Everyone, hello. Thank you for being here. I'm really not prepared. I thought my job was done after we clapped 17 times. So, after words like 'emphatic' and all that Ranveer has used, I don't think I can really match that. I'm very grateful to be here, and I'm very grateful to see you here. And let's all go to sleep; it's late."
