Sunil Grover won’t return to Kapil Sharma’s show. But, is the latter to be blamed?

Kapil Sharma and Sunil Grover stand out as the prime entertainers in the drawing rooms of the Indian audience. The duo, which appeared on the top-rated comedy show together - The Kaapil Sharma Show, had a fall-out last year following a mid-air spat. It was alleged that Kapil hurled abuses at Sunil and the latter walked out of their highly popular show. Months later, TRPs fell and Kapil took to bottle for company, which eventually led to the show going off-air. However, after the debacle of his film Firangi, Kapil is back with a bang – he is returning to the small screens with a new show Family Time With Kapil Sharma. While the promos and the teasers of the serial have piqued excitement amongst his ardent followers, the question remains – will Sunil board the bus? Much to our disappointment, the answer is No.

It all started after a fan wrote to Sunil on Twitter that his family misses the comedian and also added that he should return to Kapil Sharma’s show. Owing to reports of a patch-up between the former co-stars, Sunil was likely to make a comeback until he tweeted otherwise. He took to Twitter on Friday and clarified saying he has not been approached for Kapil’s new show.

Peeping Moon has learnt that it is rather a grudge against the channel and Kapil that is holding back Sunil from re-entering the show. Our sources inform, after the in-flight fight, Sunil had asked the channel for a standalone show. However, considering the mathematics involved, he was denied so. Apparently, when Sunil helmed 1 hour special episodes with Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar, it failed to ignite the similar magic, and channel wasn't convinced about his ability to pull off a show as host.

Cut to Kapil’s new show, the decision to bring back Sunil remains with the channel authorities and thus, the actor-comedian doesn’t have as much as a say in this case. But, looks like, someone isn’t ready to let bygones be bygones.

Meanwhile, Sunil has signed up for something exciting with Bigg Boss 11 winner Shilpa Shinde. Going by an Instagram post shared by Preeti Simoes, the Creative Producer on Comedy Nights with Kapil and The Kapil Sharma Show, he will soon back at doing what he does best – tickle your funny bone!
