Ahmed, who's always been very vocal about his desi roots, will be releasing a solo rap song, called Mogambo, which he says, is inspired by Bollywood's supervillain from 1987's Mr India.
And much to our and Ahmed's surprise, Kimmel had heard the name already!
Narrating the famous catchphrase, "Mogambo khush hua", the Oscar host tried his hand at the famous dialogue and nails it!
The moment when @jimmykimmel said “mogambo khush hua”. 😂😎
