Actor Paresh Rawal took to social media to share his thoughts on money, knowledge to manage that money, and wisdom. While the actor made a strong statement, this prompted TV personality Elvish Yadav to react.
On August 12, 2026, Paresh Rawal penned a note highlighting that wealth can be fleeting without the proper wisdom to manage it. The actor wrote, “Mother Lakshmi is capricious; she never stays in one place,
and her riding on an owl teaches us—
being just “filthy rich” isn’t enough,
a bit of wisdom and discernment is also essential,
otherwise, the moment money arrives, a person,
instead of managing the money, ends up becoming an owl himself.”

Coming up with a witty reply, Elvish Yadav caught attention, mentioning that one should hold onto money as soon as it comes, “Absolutely right
Mother Lakshmi is fickle, so one should also learn to hold onto money as soon as it comes.
Otherwise, today a man will say “I’m a millionaire,” and tomorrow, upon checking his bank balance, he’ll say to himself
“Oh Mother Lakshmi, did you come or did you just bless me with a glimpse and leave?”

Elvish’s reply has now fueled buzz, with everyone discussing it online.
Paresh Rawal is all set to return to the screens with his upcoming film Malamaal Weekly 2, which also stars Riteish Deshmukh and Rajpal Yadav. In addition, Elvish also announced that he has joined the cast.
