A throwback video of Uddhav Thackeray joking about the Union Budget in front of Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman is circulating again online, drawing fresh reactions after the latest Budget presentation. The clip comes from an earlier event where former Maharashtra Chief Minister and Shiv Sena leader Uddhav Thackeray made light-hearted comments about his understanding of the annual financial Budget while standing on stage with Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman. In the video, Thackeray admits he did not always understand the Budget and makes humorous remarks about how a successful finance minister should manage people’s money so that they don’t feel the impact of taxes — comments that sparked laughter at the time. The clip has now resurfaced on social media after the recent Budget 2026 was presented, leading many users to share it with commentary, nostalgia, and reaction.
