He recently tried to prank an auto-rickshaw driver when he was going to a place in Kolkata. He shared a video on his social media handle where Gurbaz can be seen talking to the driver and negotiating fare. Then, he tried to prank the river saying that he has forgot to bring his wallet and removed his mask. The driver recognised him and even gave some money to Gurbaz to return back. Gurbaz happily gave the driver a hug.
