A recent video showing comedians Krushna Abhishek and Kiku Sharda in a heated argument on The Great Indian Kapil Show has gone viral. Fans are now debating whether the spat was real or staged to grab attention. The Times of India reported that the video sparked mixed reactions, with some viewers worried and others dismissing it as a prank.
Fight Video Of Krushna Abhishek And Kiku Sharda Goes Viral
In the clip shared widely on social media, Kiku Sharda can be heard saying, “Mai time pass kar rahu hu?” (Am I just wasting time?). Krushna replies, “Toh theek hai phir, ap karlo. Mereko koi problem nahi hai. Main jata hu yaha se.” (Alright then, you do it. You do it, brother, no problem. I’ll leave from here).
The disagreement seems to stem from a scheduling mix-up, with a crew member explaining, “Apka jab call aaya maine apko bola par inka jab call aaya maine inko bhi bola hua tha.” (When you called me, I informed you, and then when he called me, I told him too).
Fans are divided over whether the fight is genuine or scripted for publicity. Read some online comments below:
“Show hit karane ki ninja technique.”
“Scripted fight.”
“TRP Stunt.”
“Show chal nahi raha isliye ye kar rahe.”
“Publicity stunt as Kapil’s Netflix show doesn’t have much TRP.”
“It’s a PR stunt! It’s a promotion for something that is coming later.”
“New gimmick to increase TRP.”
A popular media outlet reached out to Kiku Sharda, but he refused to comment. Kyushna Abhishek is yet to react to this controversial video.
Declining Ratings Of The Great Indian Kapil Show Season 3
The spat comes amid reports that The Great Indian Kapil Show Season 3 is seeing a drop in viewership. The premiere episode with Salman Khan earned 1.6 million views, but later episodes failed to maintain the same numbers. The show has also been pushed out of Netflix’s global top 10, highlighting a downward trend in audience engagement.
Despite its popularity in India, sustaining interest across multiple seasons has been challenging. Industry experts suggest that the show may need fresh content or a format revamp to retain viewers.
