The confusion over The Kapil Sharma Show refuses to end. In what has emerged as television’s biggest spat in recent times, Sunil Grover has strongly hinted that he has quit the show while the show’s host, Kapil, is still trying to get the ace comedian back in the fold.
Kapil was accused of allegedly hurting Sunil while drunk on a flight from Melbourne.
On Monday, Kapil tweeted: “Paji Sunil Grover. Sorry if hurt you unintentionally. You know very well how much I love you. love and regards always.”
In reply to the tweet, Sunil sent out a long post via social media.
In it, Sunil said that even though working with Kapil has been a learning experience, he requested that Kapil should treat everybody with respect.
“All are not as successful as you. All are not as talented as you are. But if they all are talented like you, who will value youIJ So have some gratitude towards their existence. And also, if someone is correcting you, don't abuse that person,” Sunil said.
He added: “Refrain from using foul language in front of women who have nothing to do with the stardom you carry. They are just travelling with you. Thanks for making me realise it was your show and you have the power to throw out anybody, anytime.”
Sunil also asked Kapil to not act “like God”.
Responding to Sunil's post then, Kapil wrote: “You won my heart. I love you more and more.”
According to the buzz, Sunil skipped the shooting of the show’s latest episode on Monday. Kapil tweeted: “Today packed up at 6 a.m. After so long and I missed so many things. love you. See you in the evening at your home.”
Soon after the news of Grover quitting came, the rumour mill was abuzz that actors Ali Asgar and Chandan Prabhakar, too, were leaving the show. But sources close to the channel have denied all such reports. “None of the artists are quitting the show,” the source said.
They further clarified that the co-actors’ absence from the recent shoot had nothing to do with the fallout. Ali Asgar and Sunil Grover had prior commitments in Chandigarh and Chandan Prabhakar wasn’t meant to be a part of the finale show, the sources revealed.
