Kapil Sharma is often accused of flirting with almost all the actresses who grace his ‘The Kapil Sharma Show’. However, do you know that it is not a comedian but a channel that asks him to do the same? Recently, Kapil appeared on Desi Vibes With Shehnaaz Gill when he left the Punjabi heartthrob shocked by the revelation.
“You keep flirting on your show. Someone comes and you flirt with that person on and on,” Shehnaaz told Kapil in Hindi. In addition, the comedian-actor revealed that the flirting is scripted. “It’s not like that, it’s in the script. It’s not like I do mazaak with anyone and everyone,” he said.
Kapil further claimed how he once received an email from a channel asking him to flirt with female guests. The comedian claimed that even though he became more “serious” after becoming a father, the channel cited a survey and asked him not to skip the flirting segment.
“You won’t believe it, but the channel asked me to (so)… After I got married, I was shy when the heroine came (on the show). I wonder what I will talk about with them. And then, when I had kids, I became even more serious, so I didn’t touch that angle and talk about their film. So they (the channel) emailed me saying I was missing that aspect and quoted a survey,” claimed Kapil.
“I told them to send a copy of the email to my wife as well so she wouldn’t get offended (when I flirt). I am a romantic bird from India, just like the peacock is the national bird of India,” he added.
From Aishwarya Rai Bachchan to Deepika Padukone and Kriti Sanon; Kapil never failed to flirt with actresses whenever they appeared on his show. On the show, Archana Puran Singh also jokingly asked the actresses to stay away from Kapil due to his naughty flirting habits.
Meanwhile, Kapil is currently gearing up for the release of his film Zwigato. It follows the journey of a former factory manager who becomes a food delivery driver after losing his job during the pandemic. The film will hit theaters on March 17.
