Mumbai: Former cricketer and popular TV personality Navjot Singh Sidhu has returned to The Kapil Sharma Show after a five-year hiatus, marking a nostalgic moment for fans. The latest promo shows Sidhu back in the iconic judge’s seat, stirring up playful tension with Archana Puran Singh, who has been the show’s resident judge since Sidhu’s exit in 2019. The reunion promises to be a memorable episode filled with humor, camaraderie, and a bit of friendly rivalry.
The Promo: Sidhu Takes the Seat, Archana Puran Singh Protests
In the promo clip, Sidhu is seated confidently in the judge’s chair while Archana appears bewildered by his sudden takeover. Kapil Sharma, in his signature comedic style, pretends that Archana had undergone a “makeover” to look like Sidhu. Sidhu quickly clears the air, playfully confirming it’s really him, sparking laughter from the audience. Archana then enters the stage and humorously pleads with Kapil to ask Sidhu to vacate her seat, jokingly claiming, “Kapil, tell Sardar sahab to get off my seat. He’s taken over my spot!”
Adding to the banter, cricketer Harbhajan Singh, who will also appear in the episode, jumps in on Sidhu’s side, declaring that no one can truly replace him. The lighthearted exchange between Sidhu, Archana, and Harbhajan brings back fond memories of the show’s earlier days when Sidhu’s catchphrases and laughter were a staple.
Sidhu’s Return: Guest Appearance Only
Despite the buzz, the show’s producers clarified that Sidhu isn’t returning as the judge; he will appear as a special guest alongside his wife, Navjot Kaur Sidhu. The couple will be joined by Harbhajan Singh and his actress wife, Geeta Basra, making it a star-studded episode packed with laughter and nostalgia.
This return marks Sidhu’s first appearance on The Kapil Sharma Show since his controversial exit in 2019, following his remarks on the Pulwama attack, which led the channel to replace him with Archana. Sidhu had previously stated that his absence from the show was due to his political commitments in the Punjab Vidhan Sabha and maintained his stance on his comments. Despite the controversy, Sidhu’s return as a guest reflects his close ties with the team, especially with Kapil Sharma, who has often referred to him as an older brother figure.
Fans Eagerly Await Sidhu’s Comeback on the Iconic Set
For viewers who remember Sidhu’s infectious laughter and memorable shayaris, this episode promises a trip down memory lane. With both Sidhu and Archana sharing the stage alongside Kapil, fans can expect plenty of humor and a few throwbacks to the classic Sidhu-era jokes. Watch the promo below to catch a glimpse of this entertaining episode, where Kapil, Sidhu, Archana, and Harbhajan are all set to bring the house down.
