After 7 years of fight, Sunil Grover Breaks Silence About His Bond With Kapil Sharma at The Great Indian Kapil Sharma Show Launch.

Sunil Grover and Kapil Sharma, who had a big fight seven years ago, have finally cleared the air about it. They joked that the fight was a publicity stunt they planned long before Netflix even came to India. Before their show, The Great Indian Kapil Show, premiered, they sat down for a press conference.

Sunil Grover playfully said that they came up with the idea for the fight while they were on a flight and heard that Netflix was coming to India. It was like a funny prank they wanted to pull off. Grover said poking fun at his and Kapil’s fight, “We were seated on the flight and we learnt that Netflix was coming to India. So, kuch aisa ho ke (acha) publicity stunt ho”.

Kapil Sharma added that Sunil was busy with many other projects at that time, which made it hard for them to reunite. But now, they’re back together, and Sunil said it feels like coming back home to work with Kapil and the team.

In the firt episode of The Great Indian Kapil Sharma Show, Sunil will be reprising his popular character, Gutthi and will be seen joking around with Ranbir Kapoor and Neetu Kapoor.
