Netflix India shared a video of a fun banter between The Great Indian Kapil Show’s host and Jigra’s cast and crew.
Kapil Sharma’s Netflix comedy series, The Great Indian Kapil Show (TGIKS), has been renewed for another season. Ahead of the premiere episode, scheduled for September 21, the streaming platform released an interesting video. The clip posted on their official Instagram page gives a sneak peek of some fun banter between the show’s host Kapil Sharma and his first set of guests.
On Thursday, Netflix India posted a video featuring Jigra stars Alia Bhatt and Vedang Raina, the film’s director Vasan Bala and producer Karan Johar. At the beginning of the video, Kapil, in his usual humorous ways, asked KJo, “You are looking handsome, Karan sir. Can you tell me one thing? Now you are on my show, so when am I coming to your film?” The filmmaker-turned-producer replied with, “For that, you need Jigra! Jigra!”
The comedian tickled everyone’s funny bones when he said, “Now, should I open my chest and show the Jigra? ” This made KJo lightheartedly poke at him by saying, “We don’t have so much of Jigra to see you shirtless.” Meanwhile, Jigra’s director chipped in and said, “Asli Jigra,” which would be when Kapil would let Alia tie a rakhi to him. The comedian added, “Bala sir, I don’t have so much of Jigra!” Then, the host and the guests indulged in some more fun banter.
Sharing the video, Netflix India wrote, “Funnyvaar isn’t far kyunki 2x fun lekar aa rahe Jigra ke stars! Get ready to watch the first episode of #TheGreatIndianKapilShow Season 2, this Funnyvaar, 8 pm, only on Netflix!”
In one of the promo videos of TGIKS 2’s first episode, Kapil informed Alia that one of Ranbir Kapoor’s exes was in the studio and asked for her permission to call her on stage. Now, before you jump the gun and think it must be one of the women he dated, that wasn’t the case. The comedian called Sunil Grover, who plays Gutthi.
The Jigra team will appear in the first episode of TGIKS to promote their upcoming film, slated to be released in theatres on October 11. The film will clash with Rajkummar Rao and Triptii Dimri’s starrer Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video. In the same promo video, Kapil asked Karan about his bond with Alia, “Karan sir, what do you see in Alia? A friend? A daughter? An aunt?” leaving everyone in splits. Karan replied, “She is my first daughter.” He also revealed that he is on WhatsApp groups with just the mothers of Bollywood.
