After two episodes, Kapil Sharma finally regained his stride on The Great Indian Kapil Show, delivering fresh characters and sharp sketch comedy that fans have been eagerly anticipating from the new series.
The latest episode of The Great Indian Kapil Show proved to be a charm, marking a significant improvement after the lukewarm reception of the first two episodes. Kapil Sharma and his team showcased their brilliance with fresh characters and sharp sketch comedy that fans had been eagerly anticipating.
Featuring Imtiaz Ali, Diljit Dosanjh, and Parineeti Chopra promoting their film “Amar Singh Chamkila,” the episode’s only drawback was its short runtime, clocking in at just 38 minutes. Despite this, the writers made every second count, delivering a comedy knockout.
In a humorous take on their real-life tension, the duo’s banter offered a fresh perspective on their relationship. The chemistry between them was palpable, especially during scenes where Trump teaches Kim how to eat pan masala and their synchronized dance to Chamkila’s “Ishq Mitaye.”
Guests Parineeti Chopra, Imtiaz Ali, and Diljit Dosanjh played crucial roles in the episode’s success. They embraced the show’s vibe effortlessly, with Chopra’s infectious laughter and Dosanjh’s witty comebacks stealing the show. The addition of a guessing game added further entertainment, revealing Chopra catching Dosanjh cheating and showcasing their comedic chemistry with Sharma.
Staying true to the episode’s theme, Sunil Grover shone brightly in a dazzling saree as Dafli. While celebrities often feel a bit shy when Dafli starts flirting, Dosanjh jumped right into the banter, delivering witty comebacks that had the audience in stitches.
Kapil Sharma excels not only as an ace comedian but also as a talk show host. He effortlessly puts even the most reserved celebrities at ease, using in-between comedy sessions to draw out their experiences in a relatable manner for the audience. However, lately, the unique gags and sketch comedy segments that defined Sharma’s shows have been absent from The Great Indian Kapil Show. Fortunately, the comedian redeemed himself in the third episode, cranking up the comedy to full blast.
The third episode also highlighted a looming challenge for the show’s transition to OTT. On television, Sharma’s show had nearly an hour-long runtime, allowing ample time to develop comedic sketches. However, on the OTT platform, they must condense their sketches to fit within a much shorter timeframe of 5-10 minutes, requiring quicker introductions of new characters and punchier comedy delivery.
Following the release of the 3rd episode, the makers treated fans to a sneak peek of the next episode, featuring Vicky Kaushal and Sunny Kaushal. With Sunil Grover bringing his A-game, the episode appears to promise another laugh riot. Let’s keep our fingers crossed that it delivers the same level of laughter as this one did!
