Kapil talked about this change with Bharti Singh and Harsh Limbachiya in their vlog. He said, “I was more fit in Firangi than this, but this time I decided that I will stay in shape whether a film comes my way or not. Because we become lazy on TV. And there is no measurement on TV that if you have gained weight, then you will not get a project. Kaam chal raha hota hai, baitha bhi sofa pe hota hai, ek dhele ki mehnat nahin hoti wahan pe. (Work keeps going on, you’re just sitting on a sofa, and there’s hardly any physical effort involved.) Your mind works when you are working on TV, but not the other kind of workout is required.”

Kapil Sharma's TV career

His recent film, Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon 2, is the sequel to Kapil Sharma’s 2015 movie and stars Hira Warina, Tridha Choudhary, Parul Gulati, and Ayesha Khan as the leads. The ensemble cast also includes Sushant Singh, the late Asrani, Akhilendra Mishra, Vipin Sharma, Jamie Lever, Smita Jaykar and Supriya Shukla. The trailer teases another comedy of errors as Kapil once again juggles three wives under different identities, trying desperately to keep his secrets from being exposed. While the original was directed by Abbas-Mustan, the sequel is written and directed by Anukalp Goswami.

The film is set to be released on December 12.
