For fans of The Great Indian Kapil Show, a viral video of Kiku Sharda and Krushna Abhishek arguing had sparked whispers of a fallout and Kiku’s supposed exit. But the comedian has now cleared the air in the most Kiku way possible—with humour and warmth. Taking to Instagram, he shared a picture with Krushna Abhishek and reassured fans that the “fight” was nothing but a prank, adding that his bond with his co-star remains unbreakable.
Internet reacts
Several fans chimed in on the viral clip, pointing out that such pranks are nothing new, as Krushna and Sudesh have pulled them off many times before, this time with Kiku joining in. Many also said they had always believed it was a prank. Others expressed relief, calling Kiku one of the oldest and most loved members of the show, adding that without him, it wouldn’t be as much fun. Some also felt that fights are just part of friendship and urged them to continue working together.
What led to the rumours?
Speculation about his departure gained traction after a video surfaced on social media, leading many to believe he was leaving mid-season. However, Archana Puran Singh, as quoted by The Indian Express, dismissed the buzz as “absolutely untrue.” Reports further confirmed that the so-called altercation was staged as a prank on a guest, and both comedians even shot additional episodes together after the clip went viral.
The truth is much simpler—Kiku has only paused shooting temporarily. According to reports, the actor-comedian is juggling schedules as he prepares to appear on the upcoming reality show Rise & Fall, hosted by Shark Tank India's Ashneer Grover. It would also star Arjun Bijlani, Aditya Narayan, Pawan Singh, Dhanashree Verma and others. That break from filming was quickly mistaken as an exit, fueling the rumours.
As for his future on The Great Indian Kapil Show, fans have nothing to worry about. Kiku Sharda has wrapped up his parts for the current season but remains very much a permanent member of Kapil Sharma’s comedy family.
