Bharti Singh calls Athiya Shetty a'hockey stick'

Comedian Bharti Singh, who appears on new TV show "Comedy Nights Bachao", poked fun at actress Athiya Shetty's sleek physique by calling her a "hockey stick".

Daughter of actor Suniel Shetty, Athiya, who has made her Bollywood debut along with Sooraj Pancholi with "Hero", will be seen in the forthcoming episode of "Comedy Nights Bachao" along with Bollywood superstar Salman Khan, who is co-producing the film along with veteran filmmaker Subhash Ghai.

Bharti, along with her co-star Krushna Abhishek, was seen poking fun at the guests.

When she went around to meet Athiya and Sooraj, she said: "For the first time on Colors, a hockey stick and a football are seen together."

It was clearly a joke on her own rotund frame.

After that, Krushna called Bharti and Athiya a "perfect 10", with Athiya being the one and Bharti the round zero.

The episode featuring the "Hero" stars will air on Saturday.
