‘Aapka Apna Zakir’ is unlike any other comedy show on television. The light-hearted show elevates the talk show experience as it captures the essence of everyday experiences with a tinge of comedy while bringing out Zakir Khan’s signature style.

This blend of humour, philosophy, and relatability sets the show apart from typical comedy programs.  

A promising start

While the show has its strong points, there's room for improvement. Also, the talented panel of Shweta Tiwari, Rithvik Dhanjani, Paresh Ganatra, and Gopal Datt’s presence do shine on screen; but would like to see more of their quirk and banter. However, it's a promising start.

 ‘Aapka Ka Apna Zakir’ is the perfect weekend escape that delivers both laughs and life lessons, all with Zakir Khan's signature touch.
