Kapil Sharma and his ‘The Great Indian Kapil Show’ team visited the Wagah Border recently and met with BSF personnel.
Kapil Sharma’s Netflix comedy series The Great Indian Kapil Show (TGIKS) is returning for a second season. The show’s first episode will premiere on the streaming platform on September 21. Ahead of which, the TGIKS team, including Kapil, Archana Puran Singh, Krushna Abhishek, Kiku Sharda, Sunil Grover and Rajiv Thakur, was spotted at the Wagah Border in Amritsar on Sunday.
In a carousel shared by paparazzo Yogen Shah, the TGIKS team can be seen wearing the same T-shirts with their show’s name printed on them. In the first two pictures, the team flaunted their brightest smiles as they posed along with the Border Security Force (BSF) personnel. In the last picture, Kapil was seen waving at his fans at the Wagah Border. The photo album was shared with the caption, “The team of Netflix India’s The Great Indian Kapil Show salutes our BSF heroes at the Attari-Wagah Border.”
Just two days ago, Netflix dropped the trailer of the much-anticipated second season of Kapil Sharma-hosted The Great Indian Kapil Show. Like the last season, the upcoming season will feature the appearances of some esteemed names from the Indian film industry. The trailer began with Thakur saying, “This time around, witness the vibrant colours of Indian culture alongside the biggest superstars!” It was packed with the comedian’s signature one-liners and comedic moments of the show’s cast. Sharing the trailer on their official Instagram page, Netflix India wrote, “When your favourite guests meet Kapil & gang, Shanivaar ka Funnyvaar banna pakka hai. Watch #TheGreatIndianKapilShow Season 2 from 21 September, raat 8 baje, sirf Netflix par!”
The guest line-up for the upcoming season includes Alia Bhatt, Vedang Raina, Saif Ali Khan, Janhvi Kapoor, Jr NTR, Karan Johar, Maheep Kapoor, Seema Sajdeh, Neelam Kothari, Bhavana Pandey, and cricketers Rohit Sharma, Surya Kumar Yadav and Arshdeep Singh. The show’s first season premiered in March this year, with guests like Aamir Khan, Ranbir Kapoor, Neetu Kapoor, Ed Sheeran, and Vicky Kaushal, among many others.
The Great Indian Kapil Show also marks the first time Kapil and Sunil have collaborated since their fallout some seven years ago. The comedian duo used to work on The Kapil Sharma Show, where Grover gained immense popularity for playing roles like Gutthi and Dr Mashoor Gulati. But he quit the show after an ugly fight with Sharma on their return flight to Mumbai from Australia. Back then, reports stated that the TGIKS host was under the influence of alcohol when he attacked Grover. However, things have gotten better between the two, as Grover has reprised his role in the second season of Kapil’s Netflix comedy series.
