The Great Indian Kapil Show

Kapil has own style, its one of a kind. His loyalists will always watch and itll be pretty ordinary for the others.

Its bound to get repetitive, how long can you carry out such stuff, jokes will end eventually. That theyre still carrying it on is a big deal.

The surrounding is changed a bit and thats the best repackaging they can do.

Cant get much more from a show like this.

Grover is a great return, the other starts are fine but badly misses Chandu and Simona. Hope they come back. Will add two more stars to the rating. Its the overall combination over the years that has grown into the audience.

Even if your not a fan, a bit of unlinked comedy never hurt. Give us more.

It's amazing to see kapil killing his own show. One of the greatest shows to be on Indian television coming on Netflix what else could he ask for more. But it seems kapil has lost his sheen and that is what mostly happen to people who take their job forgranted . Even after the famed reunion of him and Grover they are not able to generate half a show they used to deliver 10 years back. So it's time kapil should realise that nothing better than 100 percent would do. He has to get his act straight all 5 episodes were below expectation. I think it's time Indian audience moves towards real comedy. Kapil we expect better.

2 episodes down in this 15 episodes series( read in reports before episode 1 premiered) there is nothing new to talk about and if Netflix took a punt on Kapil Sharma, looks like will end up empty handed. First it wasn't a great idea to ditch tv for OTT, show was originally made for Indian hindi TV audience not for people in 190 or 192 countries. Ofcourse there are whole lot of Indian Diaspora but don't think everyone of those will connect to the show like the TV audience has connected here in India, were most of us habituated to watch the Comedy Nights with Kapil or The Kapil Sharma Show every Saturday and Sunday. Coming back to the content of the show it has nothing special or new to offer than the previous versions of the show. Characters look even lame than previous versions and jokes are flat, repeated or repackaged like Sunny Deol-Bobby Deol act by Kiku and Krushna in episode 1. There was excitement about Sunil Grover returning to the show and even more that it was on Netflix with hopes of comedy that will stand out but alas it hasn't met any of my expectations.

I won't blame Netflix, but perhaps the entire cast for the slow start and some repeated jokes.

Initially, I was eager since the show on Netflix was more accessible across the border, unlike YouTube where there was no cutting or editing of songs, etc. That was a positive aspect. However, the cast's performance was quite mediocre.

Archana Puran Singh seemed to be forcing herself to laugh harder than ever before and contribution to the show was absolutely and totally nothing.

Kapil started with the usual routine but with very dull introductory jokes.

Sunil Grover's return was welcomed, considering his strong presence in the show, but his solo endeavors in movies, etc., were just terrible.

Krushna Abhishek's performance was mediocre; it could have been better.

Kiku's portrayal as a chef was very uninspiring; his second appearance was below average.

The show lacked substance and seemed like a desperate attempt at humor. It could have been better. Fresh jokes with better punchlines are needed.

I won't make a final judgment based on the first episode; let's hope the subsequent ones are better.

Didn't felt for a second that I was watching Kapil sharma show but a very sad and non laughable show, the much awaited stint of Sunil grover was only flirting with Ranbir and makes it more cringy when the kind of make out, same 10 years old techniques, I thought there will be a better comedy but you will hardly laugh through all the episodes. I know Netflix bot will start giving it 8-9 star ratings to make it popular ad they do it with all their shows. But this one was a sad show instead of a comedy show. It would have been better that Sunil grover was given more length and better appearance than being same like guthi. I hope they do better in coming episodes.
