MUMBAI: A new promo from the reality show ‘Hunarbaaz’ shows Bollywood actor Parineeti Chopra breaking down in tears on listening to a contestant's story of struggling in Mumbai.

Voot has shared a promo of the upcoming episode which shows a contestant performing daredevil stunts on a high pole as the song Ae Dil Hai Mushkil plays in the background. He is also seen talking about his days of struggle in Mumbai.

He says, "I struggled a lot after reaching Mumbai. I did not have a place to stay so I lived under a tree. I would hope someone would give me food or someone to give me some money so that I could go back home."

Parineeti couldn't control her emotions and burst into tears. "Jo bahut sachhe log hote hain na, mera dil toot jata hai (When I come across such people, it breaks my heart)," she said while crying.
