Almost two months back, when Dabbang star Salman Khan returned to small screen with the reality show, Dus Ka Dum, expectations were sky high. Unfortunately, the third season wasn't able to garner the attention of the audience as well as the TRP and probably that is the reason why the show is now going off air.
And any guesses on who will replace Salman’s show? Well, it’s none other than his brother Sohail Khan’s comedy show – Comedy Circus, which means that the prime time slot will still belong to the Khan family. The show will premier on September 15, 018.
After a gap of almost four years, Comedy Circus is back; this time with the title – Comedy Circus Returns. The show which ran for eight years and gave the industry comedians like Kapil Sharma, Krushna Abhishek, Sudesh Lahiri, Bharti Singh and many others is now ready with another big list.
From Ye Hai Mohabbatein actress Anita Hassanandani to Kuch Kuch Hota Hai fame Sana Saeed to Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2 actress Karishma Sharma; here’s the list of 15 celebrities who will be showcasing their humorous side on the show which will be judged by Archana Puran Singh and Sohail Khan.
