Kapil Sharma’s Show Review: Family Time With Kapil Is Fun!

Subhash  K  Jha Reviews Kapil Sharma’s Show

So he  is back after all. The naysayers and  party-poopers are biting their nails. To his credit Kapil Sharma has adopted a completely new format for his comeback.We don’t get to see even a shred  of the earlier shows except the sexist quips which are harmless fun.

So put on your  television sets again because Kapil Sharma is back.

In very ‘switch’  way Family Time With Kapil  which kickstarted on  Sony Entertainment on Sunday evening  is fun  to watch…if you like game shows where people who would normally not be caught doing things like balancing playing-balls between their  bums.

The tempo was preserved to the end, and Kapil’s  old  colleagues Kiku Sharda and Chandan  Prabhakar provided  able support.No one  missed the spoilsports  from Kapil’s  earlier  shows who have chosen  to  their separate way. And yes,  Navjot Singh Sidhu was also back on  the show, though I am not very sure what his function would be this time.Sidhu did get his judge’s  kursi,though. Old habits die hard. And who knows this better than Kapil?

 But who cares? As  Kapil said at the start, “Game toh ek bahana  hai har family ko saath  jutana hai.”

There were digs  galore about Kapil’s mishaps during thepast year, and Sidhu even slipped in a dig about Kapil’s flopped  big-screen plans.

Yup, I had  fun watching Kapil’s comeback timing. I can see families switching  on to the show,for no better reason except to seeKapil act naughty. At one point  he asked a  member of the audience why he didn’t bring his wife on the show.

“Insha Allah  agli baar aapke liye laaonga biwi ko,” said  the  over-enthusiastic  guest.

“Aapki biwi aapko Mubarak ho,” deadpanned Kapil.

 No offence meant. Let the fun begin. Even Ajay Devgan who came  on the show seemed to enjoy himself.
