  • Anupam Kher clarifies why he did not appear on The Kapil Sharma Show to promote The Kashmir Files.
  • The Saransh actor appreciated Kapil saying that he does the show very well.

Anupam Kher is the lead hero of The Kashmir Files that has become a big hit at the box office. While this huge success was not expected, some of its credit does go to the controversy triggered by the tweet of the director Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri. In his tweet, The Tashkent Files director had said that his team was not invited on The Kapil Sharma Show because it does not have a big hero.

This statement created a lot of debate on social media with many users slamming Kapil Sharma for his dubious standards which led to the #boycottkapilsharmashow trend on Twitter. In reply, the famous comedian had just shared that comments should not be made based on only one-sided information. Now Anupam Kher who has appeared a couple of times on The Kapil Sharma Show has finally replied on why exactly he and the other actors from The Kashmir Files did not appear on TKSS.

During his interview on national television, Anupam Kher said that his manager had told him two months ago that he has been invited to represent The Kashmir Files on The Kapil Sharma Show, but since it is a comedy show and The Kashmir Files is a serious and sensitive movie, he decided not to appear on the show. The Karma actor further added that it is very difficult to come up with a fun show and that Kapil does it very well.

So that puts the allegations against the top-notch Indian comedian to rest. Immediately after Anupam Kher’s interview went viral, Kapil shared it on his social media handle and thanked the Saransh actor for clearing all the allegations against him. He sarcastically also thanked all those Twitter users who gave him a lot of love without knowing the truth.

Now a few users are saying that all these tactics were used to hype the movie on a large scale. Whatever the truth might be, The Kashmir Files has managed to beat all the commercial estimates and emerged a winner.
