So, Firangi failed, and many people might also not know
the name of this film when you talk to them about it even today, leave aside
years later. And his show The Kapil Sharma came crashing down, with TRPs
falling almost every week.
The man in question, Kapil Sharma, tried to become the
talk of town by introducing his girlfriend Ginni on social media on March
16- little knowing that SpotboyE.com was working on the real story of that day
which he wanted the Ginni story to deviate us from- his ugly fight with Sunil
Grover on their flight from Australia to Mumbai.
Kapil Sharma And Ginni
And then, he began harassing top Bollywood heroes and
heroines by making them wait for endless hours before His Majesty wanted to
shoot.
So, how did it all go wrong before the cookie eventually
crumbled? Let's recapitulate. Perhaps the recap, since it is elaborate, might
make him introspect and drill some sense into Kapil's head.
1. The Dirty Fight On Flight On March 16, 2017:
It all began when Chandan Prabhakar, the Chaiwallah of The Kapil Sharma Show,
got into an argument of sorts with Kapil back-stage in Sydney, which was
their first halt on the Australian tour. Chandan did not like the way Kapil
spoke to him and retaliated by saying, "Tu hoga Kapil Sharma, but you
can't speak to me like this." Kapil shot back, "Thappad marunga
tujhe"!
Kapil and Chandan did not perform together at their next stop, Melbourne.

A few hours later, Chandan checked out of the hotel where
the show's team was staying. Why? Because Kapil was abusing him left, right and
centre in the hotel, adding things like, "Tu mera dost tha, isliye you are
in the show"
Some people have
everything and are left with nothing, thanks to their bloated egos and that
feeling of 'I am indispensable'. Kapil, you definitely know whether you belong
to their category or not! 
Kapil Sharma With Kiku
Things calmed down but only for a couple of hours. Kapil
started abusing Chandan once again when he saw him joining them at the airport.
The flight took off but not before Kapil had abused
Chandan once again, and now in comes Mr Alcohol!
Kapil quickly gulped down as much as he could, sat quiet for a few minutes, and
suddenly started demanding for more alcohol.

When told by the crew that they couldn't serve him
alcohol beyond a certain limit, Kapil started abusing in thin air.
The airlines' staff quickly intervened to tell him that he should sober down-
but their efforts proved futile.
Not only did Kapil continue abusing, but his volume started rising as well.

At this point, Sunil Grover (Dr Mashoor Gulati of Kapil
Sharma The Show) got up and politely told him, "Paaji, you are a very
well-known personality and it doesn't suit you to use foul language in
public."
This strangely incensed Kapil so much that he let himself
go on Sunil, and even started abusing and ridiculing him, with "Teri
aukaat kya hai jo tu mujhko aisa bole?" being his first dialogue in the
ugly altercation that followed.
An eye-witness had told SpotboyE.com, "You may call
it 'embarrassing and distasteful', but we would prefer to term it
'shameful'."
2. Kapil Insulted His Trusted Lieutenant Kiku Sharda:
Kapil Sharma did not spare even Kiku Sharda, the lovable
Palak, in his drunken state while returning home from the Land Of The
Kangaroos.
Kiku And Kapil Sharma
What exactly did he say? You might cringe as you read this. He told him: Main
banaya hai tujhe. Hai Kaun tu? Sirf Rs 10,000 per day ka artiste.
Kiku did not reply. He just put his head down and retired to his seat.
Kiku
Before we go further, take a look at Kiku's decency. When we had called him and
spelt out to him what he underwent on that flight, he simply said, "I
don't want to talk about that incident." However, please note that he did
not deny the story.
Kapil Sharma And Team
3. Kapil's Fake Apology To Sunil:
Kapil apologised to Sunil on Twitter, but it dd not work. Sunil, who was beaten
up and abused by Kapil on their return from Australia on March 16, was
still furious--- and he still is. Who wouldn't be? It's a matter of self
respect. 
Kapil Sharma And Sunil Grover
If you ask me, the apology looked quite fake. What does
Kapil mean by telling Sunil, things like 'If I hurt you unintentionally'? Does
anybody hit and abuse unintentionally
4. After ditching Akshay, Kapil Flies Out To Dubai:
You don't need glasses. That's exactly the story.
A source in the know had told us us that Kapil took off to Dubai, exactly 2
days after he was supposed to shoot with Akshay Kuma---r but did not,
claiming that he was extremely unwell. WHAT? Yup, and don't pinch yourself. You
read it right.
Kapil And Firangi Poster
We believed he wanted a change/short break, and learn that he also wished to
publicise his upcoming movie Firangi in Dubai.
Gosh! What was going on in this man's mind? Did he think that Dubai will flock
out to see Firangi, which is why he was treating people in India with disdain
and contempt?
Ji haan, else how do you explain he not reporting on the sets of Akshay
Kumar's The Great India Laughter Challenge less than 48 hours before he landed
in Dubai (No laughing matter this), caring a damn about Sony's (the channel who
gave him a second innings with his comedy show after Colors shut the door on
him) Super Dancer 2 by recording their episode one week later than
scheduled? Yes, Super Dancer ko bhi ditch kiya, and bet you didn't know that.
Uff!
And, sources close to him continued to tell us till
that he was laid up in bed and investigations were going on to determine what's
wrong with him, and it hasn't yet been decided whether he will promote Firangi
in Mumbai anymore before release. On the other hand, around the same time, Team
Kapil/ Team Firangi in Dubai were on a leather hunt for journos who wished to
interview him one-on-one!
5. Royal Ditch to Ajay, Shah Rukh, Salman, Ranbir &
Arjun
Don't ignore the royal ditches he gave to top Bollywood
stars like Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Ranbir
Kapoor, Arjun Rampal and Ajay Devgn.
Let's take a look at the fiasco on Devgn's shoot:
Team Baadshaho was all set to promote the film on The
Kapil Sharma Show, one fine day. The roll time given to the actors was 11.30
am. While Ileana D’Cruz and Esha Gupta arrived at Film City at 9.00
am and began getting set for the shoot, Emraan Hashmi reached the venue
at 10.30 am. Ajay Devgn turned up at 11 am and he too
headed towards his vanity van. 
Kapil Sharma's Mysterious Illness Sent Ajay Devgn Packing
But, his majesty, Kapil Sharma was nowhere to be seen.
As the actors were getting ready, the production was trying its best to figure
out Kapil’s whereabouts.

A source present on-set had told SpotboyE.com, “Kapil’s phones were switched
off. The team was leaving no stone unturned to get in touch with him, but to no
avail. Even Kapil’s team did not give a proper answer.”
Needless to say, the stars were irked by Kapil’s behaviour. SpotboyE.com has it
that this callous attitude infuriated Ajay Devgn to no end and by 11.30 am he
stormed out of the set.

Subsequently, the other stars too left without shooting. Team Baadshaho was
later informed that Kapil was unwell (yet again) and got a panic attack.
This was not the first time in the recent times that Kapil had made a star go
back home without allowing him to shoot. Two weeks ago, he sent Arjun
Rampal home without shooting with him. Before that, Kapil had cancelled
shoots with Shah Rukh Khan and Imtiaz Ali for Jab Harry Met
Sejal, Arjun Kapoor and Anil Kapoor for Mubarakan, Paresh Rawal for
Guest In London. In all the cases, stars had arrived on-the-sets and were sent
back last moment due to Kapil’s ill health.
A Still From Baadshaho
While there were some reports that he had been keeping unwell, a few others had
also hinted that Kapil was being whimsical.
6. Pi**ed Salman Khan No End:
Salman Khan chose a special episode with Sunil Grover over
The Kapil Sharma show to promote his film Tubelight. Salman
had not appeared on Kapil’s show since a long time. The two were not
seen catching up with each other at any public events.
Whispers were getting louder by the day that all’s not
well between Salman Khan and Kapil Sharma? So, was there really a problem
between them?
Kapil Sharma's Banter With Anushka Sharma And Salman Khan On The Sets Of The Kapil Sharma Show
Yes, there was! SpotboyE.com brought you the exact
reasons and unfolded the story of how Salman and Kapil’s relationship turned
sour! A source in the know of the rift had spilled the beans...
The story goes back to the time when Salman Khan made
appearances on Kapil Sharma’s show to promote his films. At that time Kapil
made Salman wait for hours together before commencing the shoot. However,
Salman kept calm and shot for the episodes patiently.
Salman Khan With Ali Asgar On The Sets Of The Kapil Sharma Show During Sultan Promotion
“Salman was also not very comfortable with the fact that
Kapil did not give a proper script before shoot and made a lot of end moment
changes. However, keeping professionalism in mind, Salman never made a hue and
cry about it. He went with the flow but Salman was surely not very happy about
these things...” added the source.
Salman, who is very close to renowned actors
like Johnny Lever, Asrani and Mehmood, never understood
that if such senior comedians can be so humble (Salman has seen it all when his
dad Salim Khan interacted with them). So, why does Kapil have so much
air about him?
All these issues started going against Kapil but that’s
not it. All this was just a built up. The final nail in the coffin was Kapil’s
irresponsible attitude during the Filmfare Awards 2016.
Kapil Sharma Rehearses A Gawwali Sequence With Shah Rukh Khan
Kapil Sharma, who had to rehearse a Qawwali sequence
with Shah Rukh Khan, was as usual running late. He made Shah Rukh Khan
wait for hours before arriving for the rehearsals. Salman Khan was also around
the corner and when he saw SRK wait for Kapil, this did not go down well with
him.
During the final show, there came a time when Salman
greeted Amitabh Bachchan & Shah Rukh Khan who were seated in the
front row. Kapil was also seated beside them but Salman refused to acknowledge
him. He turned away and royally looked past him. Of course, Kapil was shocked!
“That was it! Salman Khan never spoke to Kapil post this
incident and the two never crossed each other’s path
7. Rajeev Dhingra- The Real Villain In Kapil's Life:
And you must meet the man who was largely responsible for
ruining Kapil Sharma’s glorious run on national television! And he directed
Firangi as well!.
After the mid-air fracas with Sunil Grover, which
resulted in a large part of the team (Sunil Grover, Ali Asgar, Sugandha Mishra)
disowning Kapil, Rajiv Dhingra was appointed as the creative director of the
show.

But Dhingra could not get along with or control the team. As a result,
deadlines were not met, scripts were never ready on time and the quality of the
show dropped (The TRPs tumbled from 2.9 to 1.3 in 4 months). Many members
of the old and existing team did not like Rajiv Dhingra.
And lo- bet you didn’t know that Sony called a closed door meeting at Juhu
Marriott to save the show from going off air about 100 hours before the
announcement of closure was made.
The biggest surprise of this meeting was that a lot of the old team, including
the writers who had left the show in March, were summoned
back. However, they told Sony that they would love to come back but
only if Dhingra was not at the helm.

However, a rude shock lay in store. Kapil did not want to let go off Dhingra.
The rest, as they say, is history.
