The Kapil Sharma Show–Episode 1

Here’s some good news for all Kapil Sharma fans. If reports are to be believed, Indian TV’s funniest showman, Kapil Sharma will be back on the small screen by mid 2016 with a brand new show. The show, to be aired on Sony, will be called Comedy Style, and have Dadi, Gutthi and Palak return as well.

Last weekend, Colors aired the first episode of Comedy Night Live with Krushna Abhishek in the lead. The show replaced Comedy Nights With Kapil but a lot of viewers are not very pleased with the new content and comedy, and are asking for Kapil to return on social media platforms. Sunil Grover, who played Gutthi and several other characters on the show, even shared a picture of himself on Twitter with caption “I want to wear make up soon. See you soon. Before monsoon.” Guess that should leave little to doubt that the gang is indeed coming back.

Comedy Nights With Kapil revolved around a talk show format where different celebrities (mostly Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone) are invited each week where Kapil took interviews of them. The show was also full of gags and skits where several actors took on new and also recurring characters. Dadi, played by Ali Asgar was an alcoholic grandma to Kapil, Gutthi and Palak, played by Sunil and Kiku Sharda, were two irritating girls from the neighborhood. They were joined by Bua, Kapil’s wife Manju, their servant, Manju’s father and a lot of fun characters.
