Cricket Stars Join Kapil Sharma for a Special Episode
A photo from the sets of The Great Indian Kapil Show has taken social media by storm. The frame features an eye-catching line-up of Indian cricket personalities, Gautam Gambhir, Rishabh Pant, Yuzvendra Chahal, Abhishek Sharma, and Navjot Singh Sidhu, all sharing space on one of India’s most popular entertainment platforms.
The image, widely circulated online, has left fans curious about the stories, laughter and unscripted moments the episode might hold. Judging by the energy in that viral photo, it’s safe to say viewers are in for something special.
Notably, Gambhir is currently the head coach of Team India. He is known for his no nonsense approach and will be seen on a comedy show very different from his personality. It will also be interesting to see his camaraderie with the Indian players.
Cricketers on Kapil Sharma’s Show: A Popular Reunion Over the Seasons
This is not the first time cricket has found its way to Kapil Sharma’s comedy universe. In the show’s first season, Rohit Sharma and Shreyas Iyer had graced the couch. In the second season, Harbhajan Singh and Sidhu were seen together in an episode, bringing a mix of nostalgia and comedy to the set.
Rohit returned again in the same season after India’s historic win at the 2024 T20 World Cup, this time accompanied by Suryakumar Yadav, Arshdeep Singh, Shivam Dube, and Axar Patel. That episode, recorded soon after the team lifted the trophy, became a fan-favourite, capturing the team’s camaraderie in celebration.
