Akshay Kumar has created a record of sorts on Indian
television. Yes, the Khiladi Kumar made his 16th appearance on The Kapil Sharma Show recently.
Akshay and Kapil have famously great comic timing and it
was there for all to see when the superstar was on the show to promote Jolly
LLB 2.
Akshay, who looked sharp in a suit for the appearance, was
accompanied by co-star Huma Qureshi.
Given that Akshay plays a lawyer in Jolly LLB 2, the
episode was created as a legal battle between Kapil Sharma and Akshay’s
character Jolly LLB.
Comedy shows like The Kapil Sharma Show have a group of
writers who are busy at work, crafting witty lines for the stars as they banter
with the host. The writers offer the script to the stars every half hour but
this time Akshay and Kapil decided to go the extempore way.
The repartee flowed between the two and the jokes
just came to Akshay and Kapil as they ribbed each other like old friends.
The other characters on the sketch show, Dr Mashoor
Gulati, Pushpa Nani, Bumper, Lottery and Sarla too joined the fun.
The show’s resident shayar, cricketer Navjot Singh Sidhu
too was a part of the banter.
Akshay at one point scooped up Sunil Grover, who plays
the quirky doctor Mashoor Gulati, while interrogating him, much to the
audiences delight.
The episode featuring Akshay Kumar will be telecast next
week.
