Shahid Kapoor's Witty Retort to Kapil Sharma's Valentine's Day Inquiry
In a recently released preview for an upcoming episode of The Great Indian Kapil Show, actor Shahid Kapoor delivered a clever response when host Kapil Sharma probed him about receiving messages from girls on Valentine's Day. The episode, set to premiere on February 14, features Shahid Kapoor and his co-star Triptii Dimri from the upcoming film O Romeo, alongside director Vishal Bhardwaj.
Kapil Sharma's Provocative Question and Shahid's Sharp Comeback
During the promotional segment, Kapil Sharma, known for his humorous and often cheeky queries, asked Shahid Kapoor, "Do you still get messages even though you are now married?" This question, aligned with the Valentine's Day theme of the episode, put the spotlight on Shahid's personal life.
Shahid Kapoor, married to Mira Rajput since 2015, quickly turned the tables by referencing their backstage conversation. He replied, "We were discussing our children's ages backstage." When Kapil retorted, "What will the kids know? They are still too young," Shahid firmly stated, "Bachchon ki mummy ko kaafi pata chal jaata hai (The mother of children gets to know everything)." This witty remark highlighted his commitment to his family and subtly shut down any further discussion on the topic.
Promotional Fun with the O Romeo Cast
The episode promises a lively atmosphere with the entire cast of O Romeo engaging in playful antics. In the trailer, Triptii Dimri was asked by Kapil if she wrote love letters during her college days. She humorously responded, "No, I never wrote love letters, but I did read a lot of them," eliciting laughter from the audience, including regulars Archana Puran Singh and Navjot Singh Sidhu.
Additionally, the preview showcased comedic skits by Sunil Grover and Kiku Sharda, designed to entertain the guests. Veteran actress Farida Jalal, also part of the film's cast, shared an amusing anecdote about Vishal Bhardwaj's pitch for her role. She recounted, "The first thing he said to me when he came home was 'Farida ji aap gaali degi (Will you cuss in the film)?' Then he said, 'bohot badhi badhi bhi nahi (nothing too serious).' Haan fir mai doongi (OK, then I will curse)." Farida emphasized her unwavering trust in Vishal, noting she would never decline his projects.
