Bharti, who appears on The Kapil Sharma Show, has lauded the comedian for never giving up. Bharti and her husband Haarsh Limbachiyaa host reality shows The Khatra Khatra Show and Hunarbaaz: Desh Ki Shaan.
Bharti, Haarsh Limbachiyaa and Farah Khan appeared for an interview with Siddharth Kannan. During the conversation, Bharti was asked to list down daring qualities of Kapil Sharma. She said, “He never gave up. There were several ups and downs in his life but he didn’t give up."
She added, “Log bolte they khatam, ab ye khatam, nashe mein pad gaya, ab comedy khatam (People used to say that he is finished, he has started drinking, his career is over). But even today, he is running a show on his own and whether it is Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan or Farah Khan, everyone wants to appear on The Kapil Sharma Show.”
Kapil had also opened up about his fight with alcoholism in a 2017 media interaction. At the trailer launch of his film, Firangi, he has said, “I could not step on the stage to perform and would cancel the shoot. I suffered from anxiety and drank myself silly. I would stay locked up in the office with my pet dog. People stopped coming on the show and I went off the radar.” (Also Read: Kapil Sharma says he was ‘consumed’ by the bottle, decided to quit drinking when he saw his mother break down)
