Kapil Sharma cracks a joke on Navjot Singh Sidhu charging high for The Great Indian Kapil Show
For the unversed, Navjot Singh Sidhu was a part of the shows, Comedy Nights with Kapil and The Kapil Sharma Show. However, in 2019, he left the show and was replaced by Archana Puran Singh as the permanent guest. But after years, he had finally made a comeback with the third season of The Great Indian Kapil Show. The show is incomplete without the funny banter between Kapil and the two guests, Archana and Sidhu. Kapil welcomed Sidhu as he made a dazzling re-entry on the much popular comedy show and also cracked a joke on the latter’s hefty paycheck for it. In his words:
“I want to thank Netflix for giving us that much budget that we could afford Sidhu paaji. Paaji, after so many years you are back in this chair, bhale hi gathbandhan ki sarkar bani ho. How are you feeling? Netflix is spending big, but how do you feel?”
