Cyrus Broacha is one funny man. Much more so in real life.

So when he came to the Rediff office on Wednesday for a live chat with his fans, the dialogue was simply hilarious.

Joined by friend and director of his new film Fruit n Nut Kunal Vijaykar, the duo gave some of the wittiest -- and very raunchy -- answers.

For those who missed the entertaining chat, here's what transpired.

Cyrus Broacha says, Hi, this is Cyrus and Kunal. We are doctors of love and recreation. Fire away!

Lucky asked, hey cyrus... i really enjoy the way u talk...gimme some tips how to talk fast in english like u.....
