Sunil Grover and Kapil Sharma, who are reuniting after seven years for ‘The Great Indian Kapil Show,’ playfully addressed their past feud at a recent press conference.
Sunil Grover joked that the fight was pre-planned during a flight when they heard about Netflix's arrival in India. He also humorously mentioned Netflix India's involvement in the idea.
‘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.
Kapil stated that Sunil's busy schedule with multiple projects made their reunion difficult.
Sunil then said that his comeback felt like homecoming as he enjoyed working with Kapil and his team.
Netflix released the trailer of ‘The Great Indian Kapil Show’ on March 23, offering a peek into the entertaining antics of Kapil, Sunil, Krushna Abhishek, and their team. The trailer also introduces the guests who will appear on the show.
‘The Great Indian Kapil Show’ is scheduled to debut on Netflix on March 30, with new episodes airing every Saturday at 8 p.m.
‘The Great Indian Kapil Show’ will feature guests from Bollywood's esteemed Kapoor family (Ranbir, Riddhima, and Neetu Kapoor), filmmaker Imtiaz Ali, along with Diljit Dosanjh and Parineeti Chopra. The trailer also showcased Mr. Perfectionist, Aamir Khan, dancing and enjoying himself. Indian Cricket Team captain Rohit Sharma and batsman Shreyas Iyer were seen playing cricket and revealing secrets.
Sunil Grover rose to fame with his iconic portrayals of fictional characters Gutthi and Dr. Mashoor Gulati on ‘The Kapil Sharma Show’. However, the actor-comedian surprised everyone with his departure from the show following a fallout with Kapil Sharma. Reports surfaced in October 2017, suggesting that during a flight back to Mumbai from Australia, where they had completed a show, Kapil Sharma, allegedly under the influence, had a confrontation with Sunil Grover, leading to Sunil's decision to quit the show.
