After a five-year hiatus, politician and commentator Navjot Singh Sidhu is set to make a grand return to Kapil Sharma’s show. You must be living under a rock if you do not know that Navjot Singh Sidhu was replaced by Archana Puran Singh on the comedy show. In a short video shared on his Instagram by Navjot Singh Sidhu, he is seen back in his signature chair, sparking plenty of excitement and confusion. In the video, Kapil, puzzled by Navjot Singh Sidhu’s presence, mistakes him for comedian Sunil Grover, who often impersonates Sidhu on the show. Kapil says, “Sunil paaji, aap har dusre din Sidhu paaji ban ke aa jaate ho. [Sunil paaji, you show up as Sidhu paaji every other day.]”
Before you jump to a conclusion, Navjot Singh Sidhu is not coming on the show to reclaim his old spot – he is arriving as a guest alongside his wife, Navjot Kaur Sidhu. The couple is joined by cricketer Harbhajan Singh and his wife, model-actress Geeta Basra.
We bet you will be left in splits after seeing Sunil Grover, dressed as Navjot Singh Sidhu. He makes a surprise entrance. He climbs the stairs, hugs Archana Puran Singh, and jokingly calls for someone to move her chair.
Sharing a video on Instagram, Sidhu wrote, “The Home Run …..” Reacting to the post, Harbhajan Singh said, “Paji chaaa gaye. Showtime with BOSSMAN”
The Great Indian Kapil Show episode featuring Navjot Singh Sidhu will premiere on Netflix on Saturday, November 16
