On Akshay Kumar frequenting The Kapil Sharma Show, Bharti Singh asks if Salman Khan is the owner or him

Actor Akshay Kumar will be back on the sets of The Kapil Sharma Show this weekend, as it returns for a new season. On the show, Akshay and his co-stars Huma Qureshi and Vaani Kapoor will promote their movie BellBottom.

In a promo shared by Sony Entertainment Television on Instagram, stars of the show, including host Kapil Sharma, are seen interacting with the actors. At one point, comedian Bharti Singh asks him, “The show has started and Akshay paji is here. I have a doubt. Is this Salman Khan’s production or Akshay Kumar’s? Only the owner comes around so often to check if the work is going well.”

Salman is one of the producers on the show. He was also the first guest when the show was relaunched in 2018.

On the upcoming episode, Akshay also pokes fun at Kapil Sharma, saying that he has been running his show for a long time. Kapil jokes that Akshay wants to do everything–rescue people in BellBottom, fly to Mars in Mission Mangal and even interview the Prime Minister. Akshay responded that he wants to work as much as possible so he can come to the show.

He said, “Mujhe baar baar aake teri besati karni hai (I want to keep visiting the show to insult you).” However, Kapil left Akshay in splits when he said, “Theek hai, thodi bahut besati se cheque ban raha hai toh kya jaata hai? (That’s okay, if a little insult is going to give me a paycheque then there’s not much to lose).”
