On the other hand, Sunil Grover did try to return to television with other comedy shows like Kanpur Wale Khurannas and Gangs of Filmistaan but failed to make an impact. Sunil also started taking movie projects but played it safe by sticking to side roles or character roles in big movies. He was praised for his small role in Salman Khan's Bharat.

Tandav, a web series released earlier this month had Sunil playing a key character of a kingmaker. While this Abbas Ali Jafar series starring Saif Ali Khan and Dimple Kapadia in the lead has been caught in controversy, Sunil did manage to earn a lot of appreciation for his character of Gurpal Singh.

Now Kapil Sharma is making his OTT debut with a Netflix web series. He has a big challenge ahead of him as his earlier stint as an actor did not go down well. So, while Sunil Grover could not succeed as a comedian on television post his fallout with Kapil Sharma he is slowly making his name as an actor.

Now it needs to be seen whether Kapil succeeds on OTT or not.
