‘The Kapil Sharma Show’ to go OFF AIR? Here is the COMPLETE TRUTH

Mumbai: Only days after actor Ajay Devgn left the sets of "The Kapil Sharma Show" as Kapil Sharma had not arrived, Sony Entertainment Channel on Thursday announced a "short break" with the comedian. The clarification comes amidst news that the popular comedy show was being replaced with "The Drama Company". An official spokesperson from the channel said in a statement: "Kapil has been under the weather for sometime now, due to which we have mutually agreed to take a short break. However, once Kapil has recovered completely, we will start shooting once again. We value our relationship with Kapil and wish him a speedy recovery." The grapevine was abuzz that the show may be taken off air, but a source from the channel said a lot of wrong stories were doing the rounds.

I love my fans ????????????

"The show is not going anywhere. It is still here and during the break, we are putting repeats at the 8.00 p.m slot," the source told IANS, adding that no fresh episodes would be shot, for now. The official statement from the channel comes after Devgn visited the sets of the show to promote his forthcoming film "Baadshaho" earlier this week. He had reportedly walked out from the sets in anger after Kapil failed to arrive for the shoot, though Devgn later clarified that he didn't leave in a huff. Some reports said Kapil was partying till the wee hours and wasn't able to wake up on time to make it to the shoot. However, Devgn said he didn't know the reason behind the comedian's absence from the shoot that day. Well, nothing seems to be in Kapil's favour since his infamous fight with Sunil Grover. Many of his team member left the show including Sugandha Mishra, Ali Asgar and Upasna Singh.
