Mumbai, Sep 20 (NationPress) Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar, currently seen in the newly launched film ‘Jolly LLB 3’, ignited the atmosphere in the latest episode of the streaming sketch comedy series 'The Great Indian Kapil Show'.
The actor dominated the season 3 finale of the program, leaving host Kapil and his family utterly speechless while bringing the audience to fits of laughter. For every punchline that Kapil had crafted for his guest, Akshay’s comeback was at least threefold in humor. When Kapil teased him about arriving late to Season 3 despite his reputation for punctuality, Akshay cleverly retorted, “Arre, mujhe pehle paise nahi mile.”
The playful banter continued as Kapil inquired if Akshay's extensive filmography indicated more talent or simply more ‘zarooratein’. Akshay skillfully turned the question back, “Your show’s been on for three seasons on Netflix, plus you have 2 films and now a new café, you tell me who has more talent or needs.”
Directors Mahesh Bhatt and Abbas-Mustan recalled breathtaking moments of witnessing the superstar execute daring stunts effortlessly, while everyone else on set held their breath. Akshay also disclosed his view of himself as a stuntman first and an actor second.
During the show, Kapil introduced a group of stunt professionals who have collaborated with Akshay. In a sincere moment, Akshay acknowledged his career to the stuntmen, stating, “Mere liye asli heroes yeh hai, inki wajah se mera career hai (for me, these guys are the real heroes. I owe my career to them).”
The stuntmen shared a touching aspect of Akshay's character, revealing how he has guaranteed life insurance coverage for every stuntman in their union, quietly paying the premiums for years. Their heartfelt expressions of gratitude momentarily paused the laughter-filled episode.
As the season and episode concluded, Akshay initiated a Holi-themed water balloon battle, ensuring that Sunil, Kiku, and Krushna were thoroughly drenched, while the live audience could hardly contain their laughter.
'The Great Indian Kapil Show' is available for streaming on Netflix.
