'Comedy Nights With Kapil' now once a week?

New Delhi: One of the most popular faces on Indian television—comedy king Kapil Sharma got all the recognition and fame through his hit show, 'Comedy Nights With Kapil'. It became a platform for all the Bollywood stars to promote their films and at the same time interact with the fans directly.

However, with the onslaught of new year—there was a 'not-so-good' news for the followers. The famous comedy show has cut down on its episodes, from twice a week to once a week. Reports suggest that from January onwards, this shall be the trend, as Kapil needs to devote time for his Bollywood debut.

Reason behind Kapil's show going once a week is probably because he has started shooting for director duo Abbas-Mustan's film. Also, there are reports suggesting that due to time constraint, the maverick funnyman was unable to give his creative inputs in the show. Therefore, the quality of the content has suffered.

Although, no official statement has been made in this regard, either by Kapil or by the makers as yet.
