Ed Sheeran on Kapil Sharma's show: International singer Ed Sheeran is set to appear as a guest on the upcoming episode of the Netflix comedy series, The Great Indian Kapil Show. The trailer shows Sheeran singing in Punjabi, mouthing Shah Rukh Khan’s dialogue, and talking in Hindi.
Ed performs 'Shape Of You'
The trailer begins with comedian Krushna Abhishek humorously addressing the concept of advertisements on Netflix. "Ye log bolte hai Netflix pe ad nahi aata," he says, before delivering the punchline, “Pura ka pura Ed Sheeran aagaya idhar!”
Host Kapil Sharma then comments on their age and language skills. “You are younger than me in age, but I am younger than you in English!” Sharma quips, prompting a warm hug from Sheeran.
Ed Sheeran does a SRK
Sheeran also performs his global hit ‘Shape of You’ with a lively Bhangra twist. The trailer then shows Sharma asking Sheeran about his meeting with Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan. Sheeran then uses Khan’s dialogue from Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge: “Bade bade shehro mein choti choti baatein hoti rehti hai,” followed by both doing the iconic Shah Rukh pose.
He sings a Punjabi jingle
Sheeran also sings a Punjabi jingle, “Aayo aayo, Lakhanpal nu janmdin aayo, Eating cake and eating barfi, paneer pakoda eating.”
The promo ends on a humorous note, with Kapil joking that Sheeran came specifically to meet him. Sheeran quickly corrects him, “Nahi nahi, mera show hai Mumbai mein,” indicating his ongoing concert tour.
