Sidhu’s Return to The Kapil Sharma Show Sparks Fan Reactions
Former cricketer Navjot Singh Sidhu is making a surprise comeback on The Kapil Sharma Show, returning after five years in a promo that has captivated fans. Sidhu, who once held the judge’s seat, makes an appearance seated in his former position, sparking immediate reactions from Archana Puran Singh, his current replacement on the show.
The recently released promo teases fans with Sidhu’s reappearance, where Kapil Sharma humorously suggests that Archana’s makeover has transformed her into Sidhu. However, Sidhu quickly clears up the mix-up, claiming his spot and leaving Archana playfully protesting. “Kapil, tell Sardar Sahab to leave my seat!” she exclaims, while guest Harbhajan Singh jokes that Sidhu is irreplaceable, adding a lively twist to the exchange.
Despite the excitement, the show’s producers clarified that Sidhu’s return is a one-time guest appearance. He’ll appear alongside his wife, Navjot Kaur, while cricketer Harbhajan Singh and actress Geeta Basra will also join the episode. In a nod to nostalgia, comedian Sunil Grover is set to spoof Sidhu’s iconic personality, bringing laughter and a dash of satire to the episode.
This brief return marks a significant moment for Sidhu, who last appeared on the show in 2019. His exit was prompted by public backlash over comments he made following the Pulwama attack. Sidhu’s statement, which urged against attributing terrorism to any entire nation, ignited controversy, leading to his replacement by Archana. Reflecting on his departure, Sidhu stood by his statement, saying, “I continue to believe in what I said then, and I’ll always stand by it.”
The promo has stirred curiosity among fans, who are eager to see Sidhu and Archana share the screen for the first time since his departure. As the episode promises humor and nostalgia, viewers are left speculating whether Sidhu’s return is just a fleeting moment or a hint at something more lasting in The Kapil Sharma Show’s ever-evolving lineup.
