**Mumbai, India** – Navjot Singh Sidhu, the former cricketer and politician, is making a much-anticipated return to Kapil Sharma’s comedy show, this time on Netflix’s “The Great Indian Kapil Show.” The upcoming episode, airing November 16th, marks a reunion more than five years in the making, since Sidhu’s departure from the original “Kapil Sharma Show” in 2019.
In a recent interview with The Grain Talk Show, Sidhu offered cryptic insight into his previous exit, citing “political reasons” and other unspecified factors that led to the “bouquet falling apart,” referencing the original show’s ensemble cast. Speculation at the time linked his departure to comments he made regarding the Pulwama terror attack.
Despite the past, Sidhu heaped praise on Sharma, calling the original show a “bouquet made by god” and highlighting Sharma’s unique talent. He recalled a time when Sharma faced career setbacks, stating that he saw Sharma’s genius and believed in his enduring appeal. Sidhu expressed a strong desire for a reunion of the original cast, including Sunil Grover (“Gutthi”), Ali Asgar (“Dadi”), and others, hoping to facilitate such a gathering.
The upcoming Netflix episode will feature Sidhu alongside his wife, Navjot Kaur Sidhu, former cricketer Harbhajan Singh, and his wife, Geeta Basra, promising a nostalgic and entertaining episode for viewers.
