Regarding the 'getting fired' rumours, Sumona explained that "The Kapil Sharma Show" ended in July last year. Therefore, she neither resigned nor was fired. After the show's conclusion, the cast members pursued individual projects. Sumona took part in "Khatron Ke Khiladi," while Kapil Sharma moved on to another show. She emphasized that there is no animosity between her and Kapil. "Why would I be upset with Kapil?" she said. "He and I worked together before, and I went to Romania."
When asked if negative reports affect her, Sumona revealed that such things no longer bother her. Early in her career, about 20 years ago, such situations might have impacted her. Now, she follows the mantra: "Your opinion of me is not my responsibility." Meanwhile, "The Great Indian Kapil Show" on Netflix featured Archana Puran Singh, Sunil Grover, Krushna Abhishek, Kiku Sharda, and Rajiv Mathur. Kapil and Sunil reunited on screen after 6-7 years of their fallout, and the show's first season received a mixed response.
Sumona's clarification puts to rest the rumours surrounding her departure from TKSS. Her professional journey continues with new projects, and she maintains a positive outlook on her relationship with Kapil and the show.
