The fourth season of The Great Indian Kapil Show continues to entertain audiences with high-profile guests. Following a grand premiere with Priyanka Chopra Jonas, the second episode welcomed a special and inspiring group: India's women cricket champions. This marked a rare occasion where almost the entire team gathered on a comedy show, offering fans a delightful peek into their camaraderie and off-field personalities.
Laughter and Leg-Pulling with Kapil and Sidhu
The episode kicked off with host Kapil Sharma making a stylish entrance accompanied by four ladies. This immediately prompted a classic joke from comedian Navjot Singh Sidhu, who quipped about Kapil's weight, saying, "Arre Kapil 4 kilo wajhan kya kum kar diya, chaar chaar ko leke ghoom raha hai." The audience erupted in laughter. Kapil Sharma was quick with a witty retort, firing back, "Aapko jealousy horahi hai," suggesting Sidhu was simply jealous of his company.
Revealing Dressing Room Secrets and Childhood Idols
The cricketers opened up about several behind-the-scenes moments. A highlight was revisiting captain Harmanpreet Kaur's viral trophy celebration dance. Teammate Jemimah Rodrigues revealed that Harmanpreet was playfully forced into the bhangra by Smriti Mandhana, who insisted, "Agar aapne bhangra nahi kiya toh main baat nahi karungi." Harmanpreet also shared her childhood admiration for former cricketer Virender Sehwag, confessing she was "crazy" about him and even had his poster in her room.
All-rounder Deepti Sharma had a fun revelation about sharing her initials with the police rank DSP. The conversation about their early days saw young batter Shafali Verma narrate a lucky anecdote. She explained that when her brother Sahil fell ill, she took his place on the field wearing his jersey and ended up winning the Player of the Series award. Reflecting on her experience playing with boys, she said it continues to help her and expressed gratitude to her parents for their support.
A Celebration of Sporting Spirit and Humor
The episode successfully blended humor with heartfelt stories from the athletes' journeys. It provided a platform for the Indian women's cricket team to showcase their fun side beyond the boundary lines, connecting with fans through laughter and personal anecdotes. The show highlighted their strong bond, individual quirks, and the inspiring paths they have carved in the world of sports, making for a memorable television event.
