Vicky Kaushal leaves Kapil Sharma Sunil Grover vulnerable in The Great Indian Kapil Show
Actor Vicky Kaushal’s deadly one-liner in The Great Indian Kapil Show 4th episode first impression aired on Sunday 21 April left Kapil Sharma and Sunil Grover vulnerable.
The Great Indian Kapil Show aired on Sunday 21 April witnessed actors Vicky Kaushal and Sunny Kaushal as guests.
But, Sunil Grover stole the spotlight and emerged as the real star of the show.
Notedly, Kapil Sharma and Sunil Grover returning after six long years are proving to be a magic potion for Kapil’s new show, T
The Great Indian Kapil Show.
The 4th episode of the show, kicked-off with a sketch comedy show featuring Sunil Grover as a lost woman searching for her husband at the airport. Kapil and Sunil’s hilarious banter set the perfect tone for the show, reminding fans of what they’ve been missing for the last six years.
Their banter reaches new heights of hilarity when it becomes impromptu, often leading them to break character and share a laugh in the middle of their act, making their audience a part of their process.
For instance, in a scene when Vicky Kaushal’s one-liner throws the script into disarray, Sunil quickly breaks character and glances at Kapil with a helpless smile, saying, “Sara script he kharab kar dia (He ruined the whole script).” This moment had Vicky and the audience in stitches.
Sunil Grover later returned in the character of Engineer Chumbak Mittal. This segment saw the two comedians take hilarious jabs at each other with Sunil exposing Kapil Sharma and Archana Puran Singh’s strategy of laughing-out-loud to make the show appear funny. The writing deserves credit here as it doesn’t just allow Kapil to poke fun at his colleagues but gives them an equal chance to call out his tricks and shortcomings, making the banter more conversational and authentic.
Undoubtedly, even as Sunil Grover undoubtedly stole the show in this episode, Krushna Abhishek, portraying a desperate air hostess, also delivered some hilarious one-liners, including a rib-tickling joke about Vicky and Sunny’s father, Sham Kaushal. However, characters like Kiku Sharda’s Chef Dhaniya Lal and Rajiv Thakur’s nameless attendant fell short, lacking impactful lines and serving more as fillers than integral parts of the show. Although Chef Dhaniya Lal still gets a respectable screen time, Rajiv Thakur’s character has been reduced to mere punctuation in this series so far.
Although, the sketch comedy segments in the 4th episode seemed a bit lackluster compared to the uproarious humour of the 3rd episode, which still stands out as the most hilarious installment of The Great Indian Kapil Show, the talk-show portion of the latest episode also didn’t quite hit the mark. Kapil’s fans rely on him to effortlessly draw out entertaining anecdotes from his superstar guests. However, in this episode, aside from a bizarre ‘Gutter story’, the Kaushal brothers remained relatively reserved and failed to match the energy of the show.
