The Great Indian Kapil Show began streaming in March 2024 and has since welcomed numerous celebrity guests in its latest episodes.
New Trailer and Celebrity Guests
A fresh trailer for The Great Indian Kapil Show has been released, showcasing one of its most notable guests to date. The mid-season preview introduces several new faces who have yet to appear on the show. Among those featured in the trailer are Ed Sheeran, Kartik Aaryan, and Janhvi Kapoor.
Ed Sheeran’s Special Appearance
Netflix launched a new promo that starts with Ed Sheeran exclaiming, “This is the craziest, most fun show.” The video then transitions to clips of Kartik Aaryan, Janhvi Kapoor, Rajkummar Rao, and Anil Kapoor as upcoming guests.
Other notable personalities in the trailer include Farah Khan, Sania Mirza, Badshah, Saina Nehwal, and Mary Kom. Ed Sheeran is seen having a blast on the show, even quoting Allu Arjun’s famous line from Pushpa, “Jhukega Nahi…” One humorous segment features a mock wedding where Kartik Aaryan weds Kiku Sharda, who is dressed as a bride. Kartik’s mother, Mala, who attended the show, humorously commented, “I believe today you all will be getting Kartik married.” In another episode, Kapil engages in playful banter with Sania Mirza, stating, “If I am scared of anyone after my wife, it is Sania.” Additionally, Krushna Abhishek appears dressed as Malaika Arora in her iconic Chhaiya Chhaiya costume, prompting Farah to quip, “Malaika kam Arbaaz zyada lag rahi hai” (You look more like Arbaaz Khan than Malaika Arora).
Show’s Reception and Recent Episodes
There has been considerable speculation about The Great Indian Kapil Show potentially ending due to low ratings. The series has received mixed reviews from viewers, and rumors about its conclusion intensified when it dropped from Netflix’s top ten list. The latest episode featured the cast of Heeramandi, including Manisha Koirala, Sonakshi Sinha, Aditi Rao Hydari, Sharmin Segal, Richa Chadha, and Sanjeeda Sheikh. The show kicked off in March with the first guests being Ranbir Kapoor, Neetu Kapoor, and Riddhima Kapoor Sahni.
