Everyone was shocked when the news of Bharti Singh joining the Kapil Sharma show was announced. But the one who was really surprised and affected was Krushna Abhishek. The comedian is not happy with Bharti and in an interview to a leading newspaper, Krushna expressed his feelings. He said, “It has been four years since Kapil’s show started, and Bharti and I had vowed never to appear on it. It was an unwritten pact between us. Firstly, because it was named after him and secondly because I am not a small-time comedian, who would appear on someone’s show for a few minutes. They couldn’t have afforded me as I charge a bomb.”
He also said that when for the first time he heard the news, he rubbished all the rumours. “I laughed it off, as I was confident that she wouldn’t join his team. Now Bharti joining Kapil surprised the actor.
Krushna will be seen in a new comedy show The Drama Company that will be aired on Sony TV. Comedians like Sugandha Mishra, Ali Asgar, Sanket Bhosle will also be seen in the show. Talking about both the shows (The Kapil Sharma Show and The Drama Company), Krushna said, “In my defence, I am one of the prominent faces on The Drama Company and that’s the reason I have taken it up. I feel as if a family member has gone away from me. I don’t grudge Kapil, but this was a pact between Bharti and me.”
It has not affected the friendship of Krushna and Bharti and it has been cleared by Krushna himself. He said, “I am in touch with her. In fact, I was the first one to rush to her side when she was hospitalised recently. When I asked her about her decision, she said, ‘Krushna, mujhe kaam karna hai’. On a positive note, there is a balance now between the two shows. Personally, I don’t want Kapil’s show to end. I want both to work so that there will be healthy competition.’’
