Archana Puran Singh looks worried as Kapil announces Navjot Singh Sidhu’s return on The Kapil Sharma Show

In the promo, Kapil Sharma also teases Krushna Abhishek for taking a break from the show. As Renuka compliments her for having lost weight, Krushna said he was on a break. “Dusre channel khane ko nahi dete toh kyu gayi thi waha (If other channels do not pay you well, then why did you leave)? he tells Krushna, who is dressed in Sapna’s avatar. His comment leaves Krushna embarrassed, as he let out a loud laugh.

Krushna Abhishek had decided to opt out the Kapil Sharma-led show before its latest season started in September due to “monetary differences”. He came back earlier this April as “all issues” were finally resolved.

In an interview with Times of India, Krushna confirmed the development and said he is glad to be back. “It’s not a change of heart but a change of contract (laughs!). The contract had several concerns, including money, but all issues have been resolved. The show and the channel are like family, and I am glad to be back.”

The Kapil Sharma Show wrapped up shoot for its season last week. Kapil and co will now be traveling to the USA, followed by a UK tour. The show will reportedly make a comeback by end of the year or next year. Kapil Sharma, meanwhile will also be seen in The Crew, alongside Kareena Kapoor, Tabu and Kriti Sanon.
