The Great Indian Kapil Show brought back Kapil Sharma alongside his gang of friends Sunil Grover, Krushna Abhishek, Kiku Sharda, Rajiv Thakur and Archana Puran Singh with a whole lot more up their sleeves. The first guests on the show were Ranbir Kapoor, Neetu Kapoor and Riddhima Kapoor Sahni as the episode aired on Netflix on March 30. In the premiere episode, Ranbir revealed that his sister Riddhima was a huge fan of Salman Khan growing up and even had his posters on her room’s walls. And as it turns out, Salman volunteered to be a bartender at her wedding in 2006.
When Kapil Sharma wanted to revisit Salman Khan bartending at Riddhima’s wedding, Neetu Kapoor recalled, “Salman Khan serving liquor to everybody! Logon ne aa ke bola ki khatam ho raha hai sab kuch, tequila khatam ho raha hai. Rishi bole ki main toh itne leke aaya tha, khatam kaise ho sakta hai. Dekha toh jitne aaye the guests woh phenk rahe the aur le rahe the because Salman Khan was serving. Then Rishi went to him and said, ‘Ja tu, nikal wahan se’. (People came to us and complained that the alcohol is over. Rishi Kapoor couldn't believe it since he brought a lot of booze. It turned out that guests were throwing away their liquor only so that Salman Khan can serve them more. Rishi then went to him and shooed him off).”
Meanwhile, on the work front, Ranbir Kapoor has Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana opposite Sai Pallavi. He has also signed Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Love & War alongside Alia Bhatt and Vicky Kaushal.
