Makers to pull the plug on The Kapil Sharma Show

The Kapil Sharma Show returned to television in July with a few changes. Due to novel coronavirus pandemic, the live audience could not be a part of the shoot. So, the crew placed cardboard cutouts in the audience.

As per reports, the audience participation was one driving factor for the show. Currently, there is no live audience due to the pandemic. Films are also not releasing, so Bollywood actors do not appear for any film promotion. So, the makers felt that it would be ideal for taking a break right now and returning when things get back to normal.
