Kapil Sharma is back with the third season of The Great Indian Kapil Show. The teaser for the show was unveiled on Monday, February 3, at the Next on Netflix event in Mumbai. While posing with the cast on the red carpet, Kapil Sharma jokingly took a dig at his old feud with Sunil Grover.
As Kapil posed on the carpet with Archana Puran Singh, Kiku Sharda, Rajiv Thakur and Krushna Abhishek, he noticed that Sunil Grover was not present with them. He quipped, “Sunil paaji ko aane do. Phir aap likhoge voh phir bhaag gaye.” This left everyone in splits and Sunil Grover soon joined his castmates. Watch the video here:
Sunil Grover became a household name after playing popular fictional characters Gutthi and Dr Mashoor Gulati on The Kapil Sharma Show, but the actor-comedian shocked everyone when he quit The Kapil Sharma Show after his major fallout with Kapil. In October 2017, the two actor-comedians had a fallout in a flight when they were flying back to Mumbai after wrapping up a show in Australia. Multiple media reports alleged that Kapil was under the influence during the altercation and hit Sunil. Following this alleged incident, Sunil quit The Kapil Sharma Show.
The duo reunited in 2024 after seven years for The Great Indian Kapil Show. Ahead of the show’s premiere back then, Kapil and Sunil sat down for a press conference and addressed the infamous fight. Sunil poked fun at their now-ended feud and joked that it was all pre-planned years ago. “We were seated on the flight and we learnt that Netflix was coming to India. So, kuch aisa ho ke (acha) publicity stunt ho,” Sunil said, poking fun at his and Kapil’s fight. Sunil then said that his comeback felt like a homecoming as he enjoyed working with Kapil and his team.
