The last episode shot for TKSS was with Manoj Bajpayee and Taapsee Pannu who promoted their film 'Naam Shabana' on the show but many comedians like Sugandha Mishra, Ali Asgar, Chandan Prabhakar skipped it giving rise to speculations that all of them are standing in support of Sunil Grover and joined in the strike with him in protest against Kapil.
It all started when Kapil in a drunk state beat up Sunil, abused him & even threw a shoe at him on their flight while returning from Australia and later he apologized to him through Twitter and Facebook message but Sunil slammed him back saying "Don't act like a God"[Read details here!] and more.
Sunil for now is not returning on the sets and while the absence of many teammates is still a mystery, Sugandha has exclusively told us that she did not skip the show on purpose but due to lack of time.
Sugandha sent us a message calrifying her stand and it reads - "No dats not true... I am usually not the part of their every episode, so only bcz of my proior commitments m busy tranvelling for my shows, rite now also m leaving for dubai, will definitely shoot with them if dates work out mutually. Thanx. Sugandha."
Not directly but quite clearly Sugandha hints that she is standing with Kapil instead!
Sugandha, who plays 'Vidyavati' is currently in Dubai for her show and that explains her absence if so from TKSS shoot in near future too.
Other than Sugandha, Kiku also supports Kapil on this issue and was quoted calling the latter a "sweet guy" rubbishing all the news of his aggressive behaviour.
Chandan, who had not turned up on the first shoot of Kapil's show had told Spotboye that he will not show up for the show on day two of shooting either. He told the entertainment website on Tuesday, “Yes, I am not shooting with Kapil today. They called me but I refused. I told them that I am unavailable.”
Now as per reports, Kapil has contacted the renowned comedians Ahsaan Qureshi, Sunil Pal and Raju Shrivastava who had been missing from action for a while, for his show in place of missing teammates.
The fans, both on and off the social media have been worried about the future of 'The Kapil Sharma Show' but while many have been appealing the two to sort their issues and get back together, there are also those who are standing by Sunil calling Kapil's apology a fake one!
