Kapil Sharma back on television with a game show?

Kapil Sharma is synonymous with comedy. He rose to fame with his stand-up routines that led to his own comedy show, ‘The Kapil Sharma Show’ on Sony Entertainment Television. While Sharma had stepped out of the limelight after his show ended last year, he will reportedly be back to entertain the audience, not in a comedy show, but anchoring a game show.

SKJ Bollywood News reports Sharma’s close friend saying,  “Kapil  was inspired  to do a game-show from the success  of Amitji’s Kaun Banega Crorepati. Kapil is doing a game-show  but not on the lines  of KBC. It will be a unique format, not seen  on  Indian television. In fact the format is being worked out as we speak. It will have celebrities and ordinary people on  the  hotseat. As host Kapil will interweave a lot of anecdotes and jokes around  the presence of  the participants. The  idea is  to have fun while taking something home.  The  prizes will range from a pressure cooker to  a luxury car.”

Sharma was last seen in ‘Firangi’ (2017) with Ishita Dutta.
