The Great Indian Kapil Sharma Show: ‘The Great Indian Kapil Show ‘ on Netflix is currently entertaining the audience to the fullest. Kapil Sharma and his team are seen cracking jokes with celebrity guests in every episode. However, there is always a question in the minds of the audience about this show – are the jokes in this show scripted in advance or are the actors creating them on the spot? Now the answer to this question has been given by the popular actor of the show, Kiku Sharda.
Speaking on Prakhar Gupta’s podcast, Kiku Sharda revealed many behind-the-scenes details of the show. He said that ‘The Great Indian Kapil Show’ is not completely scripted. About 70 percent of the show is pre-written and planned, while the remaining 30 percent depends on the spontaneous dialogues of the actors and jokes that are suggested at the right time.
According to Kiku, during filming, conversations often take unexpected turns. In such cases, the actors use their comedic timing and wit to create new dialogues and punches. This makes the show feel more natural and entertaining.
Additionally, the celebrity guests on the show are not given any preconceived notions about what costumes they will wear or what jokes they will make. The producers use this formula to capture the natural reactions on the guests’ faces. So, there is no fakeness behind their smiles and those reactions are completely genuine.
In the podcast, Kiku also told an anecdote about Salman Khan . According to him, making Salman laugh is a big challenge for the team. Often, Salman does not react to jokes that the team finds very funny. However, if an actor easily says something unexpected, Salman laughs heartily.
Kiku also praised Kapil Sharma’s comedic timing. He said that Kapil Sharma is very good at handling situations when a joke doesn’t go as expected and silence falls in the studio. He lightens up the atmosphere again. This keeps the flow of the show going and the audience entertained.
