Kapil Sharma-Sunil Grover fight: Will Sharma's show face the axe?
Kapil Sharma must have never imagined that things would take a turn for the worse, after his mid-air brawl with his co-star Sunil Grover. The fight cost him dearly as his show, 'The Kapil Sharma Show', which was to be renewed this month in a Rs. 106cr deal, wouldn't apparently be renewed. The show, which is falling apart, received a one-month extension from Sony-TV.
Kapil Sharma's mid-air fight with Sunil Grover
Popular comedian Kapil Sharma and the 'Kapil Sharma Show' team were returning after performing stage shows in Melbourne and Sydney. Aboard a Melbourne-Delhi flight, Kapil under the influence of alcohol started using foul language, disturbing co-passengers. When Sunil Grover, who plays Rinku Bhabhi and Dr. Mashoor Gulati on the show, intervened to calm him down, he abused him and hit him with his shoe.
Sunil Grover planning to quit the show
Sunil Grover, who was very hurt by Kapil's disrespectful behavior, said he wasn't in a mood to appear on the show. Grover said it had become a matter of respect for him. He also said it would be beyond his dignity to stay on the show as he wasn't at fault. He denied signing other shows as he was busy with live shows.
Not the first time
Media reports suggested it wasn't for the first time that Kapil Sharma behaved in such an unruly manner. Not only Grover, but other actors on the show like Ali Asgar, Kiku Sharda, and Chandan Prabhakar have also suffered because of Kapil's temper.
