Is Kapil Sharma Being Pushed To The Very Edge?
STARDUST US EDITION|May 2018

All sorts of twisted stories are doing the ‘rounds about Firangi actor Kapil Sharma from being a flop, suicidal, drunk, depressed to being in-disciplined, abusive and unprofessional…. Is Kapil actually digging his own grave or is someone meticulously and maliciously plotting and planning Kapil’s fall from grace and pushing him to the very brink? Sumita Chakraborty investigates.

Is Kapil Sharma Being Pushed To The Very Edge?
There is absolutely no doubt about how talented Kapil Sharma is. His comic timing is perfect and his humorous punches tickle the funny bone. And, how! Just a few years ago, Kapil Sharma was ruling the roost on the small screen. He was ensconced comfortably on the top and had whizzed across the dizzy heights of success. Films from top producers to directors were being offered to him on a platter. Film actors - from superstars to smaller stars vied with each other to come on his show. TRP ratings escalated precariously high whenever this man figured in any particular award’s show or event. Indeed, each time this man opened his mouth, he raked in the moolah.

Until… 2017: Kapil Sharma broke up with his girlfriend cum-manager Preeti Simoes who was also the creative head of Comedy Nights With Kapil.

Kapil after that, just seemed to go downhill. The man who supposedly had the Midas touch suddenly found that whatever he touched, burned to ash. First Kapil Sharma had a quarrel with his teammate, the equally talented Sunil Grover on a flight back to Mumbai from Australia. The fight between the duo was leaked to the media and it magnified to such an extent that Sunil refused to even speak to Kapil. According to a source, “Kapil and Sunil were like brothers before and yes, they did have difference of opinions. But it was always resolved and they would be back to being besties. But this time ‘round, there was added mirch-masala and people filled Sunil’s ears about Kapil to the extent that there was immense bad blood between the two.”
