Promo for next week
A new promo for the show shows Navjot sitting in the guest judge’s chair, when Kapil jokes about Sunil Grover taking on Sidhu’s appearance once again. The former cricketer and commentator clarified that he was the real deal! Soon, Archana Puran Singh, who had replaced Sidhu all these years, gets nervous and asks Kapil about Sidhu taking over the show from her.
Cricket star Harbhajan Singh will also be part of the show with his wife Geeta Basra. Sunil Grover will also be back as Sidhu.
Why did Navjot Singh Sidhu leave the show
Navjot Singh Sidhu left The Kapil Sharma Show in 2019. His departure was due to backlash following his comments on the Pulwama attack in February 2019. After the terrorist attack, Sidhu stated that terrorism shouldn’t be associated with an entire country and emphasized the need for dialogue over hostility. His remarks sparked significant controversy and led to calls for his removal from the show. Due to the public outcry, he was ultimately replaced by Archana Puran Singh, who has been a regular on the show since then.
