Stand-up Comedian Zakir Khan’s air of TV show Aapka Ka Apna Zakir clashes with The Kapil Sharma Show time slot
In a new development, after the trailer of Aapka Apna Zakir was shared on Tuesday, the release of the Zakir Khan’s show is scheduled for 10 August.
Notedly, the slot earlier was occupied by The Kapil Sharma Show. With the promo released, fans seem to be sceptical on Zakir Khan trying to fill Kapil Sharma’s shoes.
In the promo, Zakir Khan is seen hosting various celebrities gracing the couch. The show’s opening episodes feature Karan Johar, Shraddha Kapoor, and Rajkummar Rao chatting with Zakir. The show will also feature TV and OTT personalities Shweta Tiwari, Paresh Ganattra, Rithvik Dhanjani, and Gopal Dutt.
Since the show airs in the same time slot as The Kapil Sharma Show, many fans have begun comparing the two shows already.
Stand-up comedian Zakir Khan says leaving his job, taking up comedy was a ‘calculated risk’:
Netizens shared positive response to the promo. One of the fans wrote, “Kapil Sharma crying in a corner,” another fan commented, “The Kapil Sharma Show was a waste here as well as on Netflix.” A third user said, “Kapil Sharma Show has officially shutshopped.” One more fan tagged Kapil Sharma warning him and wrote, “Bhait teri kursi khatre mein hai (Brother, your seat is in danger).”
Zakir Khan’s “Aapka Apna Zakir” is the successor to The Kapil Sharma Show on Sony. The first 2 episodes have Karan Johar, Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao as guests
A lot of fans also lauded Zakir and called the show a sweet one. One of them wrote, “Kapil Sharma set on a new journey, now Zakir Khan will rule over television.” One more fan wrote, “Happy for him but I sincerely hope that he doesn’t get corrupted by this glamour world. Love his simplicity. I hope he stays the same.”
Zakir Khan’s show Aapka Apna Zakir will air on Sony TV every Saturday-Sunday at 9:30 pm.
