After a span of seven years, the duo has reunited for the Netflix show, and Grover even light-heartedly joked about their resolved feud, claiming that it was all pre-planned from years ago.
“We were seated on𝓰 the flight and we learnt that Netflix was coming to India. So, kuch aisa ho ke (acha) publicity stunt ho,” he revealed while poking fun at their fight. He even joked that Netflix India had reached out to them, seeking solutions, and thus, the idea came to them.
The host-comedian himself further went on to address Grover’s absence from the show. He stated that Grover was busy shooting for other projects, which💝 made it difficult🌊 to reunite. For Grover, coming back to the sets of the show is like ‘homecoming.’
As for ‘The Great Indian Kapil Show,’ it is set to air on March 30, and 💧the first episode will be graced by Ranbir Kapoor, Riddhima Kapoor and Neetu Kapoor.
