Actress Archana Puran Singh, last seen in Shauna Gautam’s directorial debut, Nadaaniyan, as Mrs Braganza Malhotra, reprising her role from the 1998 film, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, recently visited Amitabh Bachchan’s favorite golgappa (pani puri) stall in Mumbai, where she jokingly pretended to be Madhuri Dixit when the vendor asked about her identity.
After enjoying the golgappas with her family, as they were about to exit, the vendor asked her name, and in a playful mood, she replied that she was Madhuri Dixit. Immediately, the vendor said that he had served Madhuri sev puri before, subtly hinting that he recognises her face. Amused, Archana then introduced herself properly, to which the vendor said, “Raat kobaitke Kapil Sharma show dekhte hai hum.” Laughing, she replied, “So you already know who I am.”

The golgappa wala revealed that he was present at the Bachchan residence for Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s grand wedding back in 2007.
“Jaya Bachchan ji sev puri khati hain, Abhishek ragda patties khata hai aur Aishwarya khati hai dahi puri,” he said.
Archana Puran Singh is quite active on her YouTube channel, where she often shares family vlogs. She joined the platform in December 2024 and has already garnered 538K subscribers with 58 videos.
Earlier this year, in January, Archana fractured her wrist during a film’s shoot with Rajkummar Rao and was taken to Nanavati Max Super Speciality Hospital in Vile Parle, Mumbai for surgery.
In the vlog, Archana’s son Ayushmaan broke the news to his brother Aaryamann, who got emotional after learning that his mother had to undergo surgery and had bruises on her face.
