The Great Indian Kapil Show Episode 5 Review:- The new Indian comedy talk show on Netflix, hosted by the renowned comedian Kapil Sharma, marks another milestone in his illustrious career. Kapil Sharma, known for his stand-up comedy, television hosting, and singing talents, was recognized as one of Forbes India’s top 100 celebrities in 2013, securing the 96th spot. His previous hosting credits include popular shows such as Comedy Nights with Kapil and Family Time with Kapil. Sharma’s accolades also include winning Comedy Circus Ke Superstars and receiving the Entertainer of the Year award at the CNN-IBN Indian of the Year awards in 2013.
In his new venture, The Great Indian Kapil Show, Kapil Sharma promises a humorous and diverse lineup of artists in every episode. Scheduled to premiere every Saturday at 8 pm on Netflix, the show not only showcases Kapil Sharma’s comedic prowess but also features talents like Archana Puran Singh, Sunil Grover, Kiku Sharda, and Krushna Abhishek, ensuring a lively and entertaining experience for viewers.
In the latest episode of The Great Indian Kapil Show, the spotlight shone brightly on Bollywood’s Mr. Perfectionist, Aamir Khan, making a long-awaited return to Kapil Sharma’s stage after over a decade. As the episode unfolded, viewers were taken on a nostalgic journey reminiscent of Kapil Sharma’s previous hits like Comedy Nights With Kapil and The Kapil Sharma Show, all thanks to the presence of one of Bollywood’s most renowned actors.
The episode kicked off with a side-splitting sketch featuring Kapil Sharma’s talented ensemble, including Sunil Grover, Rajiv Thakur, and Kiku Sharda, paying homage to Aamir Khan’s iconic filmography. They humorously portrayed characters from classics such as Dangal, PK, and Ghajini, infusing their own comedic twists. Shortly after, Aamir Khan himself took the stage, delighting the audience with his trademark “Oh Teri” dialogue and even revisiting a playful dance move from one of his films. Kapil Sharma joined in the fun, cleverly referencing the famous Raja Hindustani kiss and eliciting uproarious laughter from the crowd.
The episode also featured candid conversations with Aamir Khan, delving into his recent film experiences and exploring why he’s celebrated as Mr. Perfectionist in Bollywood. While the discussions were insightful and showcased Aamir Khan’s depth, some felt the episode lacked the signature Kapil Sharma humor that audiences adore. It occasionally felt more like an Aamir Khan-led show rather than a balanced collaboration with Kapil Sharma’s comedic genius.
Overall, while Aamir Khan’s presence brought depth and introspection, fans of Kapil Sharma’s comedy may have missed the usual light-hearted banter and spontaneous humor that characterize his shows.
Let’s agree, if you’re a die-hard fan of Aamir Khan, witnessing him in his natural element, sharing personal stories and insights, is a treat. However, for those seeking an hour of lively comedy with a celebrity guest, the fifth episode fell short. Despite this, Kiku Sharda’s Chef Dhaniya Lal, Krushna Abhishek’s Air Hostess Mona, and Sunil Grover’s Engineer Chumbak Mittal provided intermittent moments of laughter. Even Aamir Khan, though reserved and occasionally goofy, didn’t seem fully engaged in the humor.
Nevertheless, the episode succeeded in showcasing Aamir’s captivating storytelling and relatable anecdotes about his family and career, keeping viewers engaged throughout. Aamir Khan’s presence undoubtedly elevated the show’s appeal and attracted more viewers. Looking ahead, the upcoming episode featuring Bobby Deol and Sunny Deol promises to restore the lighthearted comedy vibe, steering clear of prolonged deep conversations with guests, unless it’s a rarity like Aamir Khan, known for his infrequent appearances at award shows.
