Sunil Grover returns to Kapil Sharma show after five years; Sharma says ‘family now complete’
New Delhi: In a surprising turn of events, comedian Kapil Sharma dropped an explosive promo for his show, hinting at a reunion with former colleague Sunil Grover. The promo suggests that the two comedians have put their past feud behind them and are ready to move forward. In the teaser, Kapil introduces himself, and Sunil Grover shares the frame, signalling their reunion.
Kapil announces, "Hi friends, this is Kapil Sharma, and I am soon coming with a show." Sunil Grover echoes the sentiment, and Kapil proposes, "Let's go together." The banter continues as they discuss the global reach of the show, with Kapil mentioning being broadcasted in over 190 countries. Sunil humorously suggests excluding Australia, to which Kapil responds that even Australia is eagerly awaiting their return. Sunil proposes a road trip instead of flying.
The promo also features Rajiv and Kiku, with Krushna jokingly remarking, "I told you all, if he returns, everyone will get cropped a bit." Archana Puran Singh enters the frame, and Kapil concludes, "Now our family is complete. We are coming soon."
The history of the feud between Sunil Grover and Kapil Sharma dates back to 2018 when Sunil abruptly left The Kapil Sharma Show following a major fallout. The disagreement reportedly occurred on a flight back to Mumbai after a show in Australia. Kapil Sharma, in previous statements, has downplayed the rift, stressing his admiration for working with talented individuals in the industry.
The Kapil Sharma Show has been on hiatus since June of this year, and the cast embarked on live show tours across the United States. The show has been a television success since its inception in 2016, with the fifth season premiering in September 2022.

Brazil's Ancelotti raises doubts about whether Neymar will reach the 2026 World Cup
Sao Paulo (AP): Brazil coach Carlo Ancelotti raised doubts about whether Neymar will be in his squad for the 2026 World Cup. The Italian has yet to pick the former captain since he took over in May.
“If Neymar deserves to be (in the squad), if he is, well, better than others, he will play in the World Cup and that's it. (But) I don't have debts to anyone,” Ancelotti said at a press conference in Washington on Friday following the draw.
Brazil is in Group C with Morocco, Haiti and Scotland.
“If we speak about Neymar, we have to speak about other players,” Ancelotti added. “We have to think about Brazil with or without Neymar, with or without other players. Our final list we will make after the FIFA fixtures in March.”
The 33-year-old Neymar has never fully recovered from a torn ACL in October 2023 during a World Cup qualifier against Uruguay. But he's been key for Santos in its fight to avoid relegation in the Brazilian championship.
On Wednesday, he scored a hat trick for Santos despite a muscular injury. He is expected to play again on Sunday against Cruzeiro.
Ancelotti said Brazil does not have a “referential player” at the moment, a tag for the most valuable player that Neymar has mainly worn since the 2014 home World Cup.
“We have one of the world's best goalkeepers, some of the best defenders, top midfielders and some players up front. I don't want players who want to be the best in the world, I want players who want to win the World Cup,” Ancelotti said.
Asked about his team's group, Ancelotti said Brazil can top it.
“We can win all three matches, our idea is very clear. We need to be competitive during the entire World Cup. Our goal is to play in the final and for that to happen you need to face very strong teams anyway.”
Brazil won the last of its five World Cup trophies in 2002.
