The special episode will see Salman Khan making an appearance to promote his upcoming film Tubelight. "Instead of getting Salman Khan on The Kapil Sharma Show, the channel decided to have this episode," a source told DNA. It will also feature comedians who were part of The Kapil Sharma Show - Ali Asgar, Sugandha Mishra, and Sanket Bhosale.

The programme will also serve as a litmus test to ascertain if Sunil can pull off a show on his own. "If he does, they'll launch a comedy show with him. Discussions are on for it," the source added.

The one-time show will have a dance performance by Mouni Roy, kids of Super Dancer and Sabse Bada Kalakar. To be hosted by Dangal actor Aparashakti Khurana, the special programme will revolve around Mashoor Gulati's Clinic and will go on air on June 18.

The news of Sunil returning as Dr Mashoor Gulati in his special show will surely leave his fans excited. However, the fact that a full-fledged commitment depends on the success of the programme might niggle his followers.

However, we hope fans of Sunil make it a success to earn him a regular show.
