In the fast-moving context of stand-up comedy, where laughter takes precedence over the rhetoric and the compliance line is being drawn constantly towards breaking it, Kapil Sharma comes as an exception. This is backed by his co-star Kiku Sharda, who has stated that he not only loves the most vicious jokes against himself but actually encourages his friends to always unleash their most bitter jokes against him, says his co-star Kiku Shahra.
Sharda noticed what a demanding job this is after she mentioned how arduous their business actually is.
“Kapil is absolutely unperturbed by the fact the fact that we can make fun of him,
duly mentioning that it’s good-natured and the jokes, even if they are going to be some harsh ones, are going across the line.
It is a praiseworthy trait for Sharma, who has held his skin thick and his art at heart with all seriousness, which is the hallmark that has won the love of his fans nationally. Often in business, where people can get carried away and sometimes be a little bit too egocentric, the comedian’s ability to make fun of his own flaws is a really nice change of scene.
Sharda’s indecent remark reflects, like a vision, a closely-knit group of comics who have an unspoken sense of humor that they exploit among themselves. The unwritten rule here is that anyone can become a punch line during their day-to-day interactions in the comedy world. It’s more like walking a thin line, where one has to mind the extent of their ‘playful’ ribbing and be cautious not to overstep the mark and make a wrongful joke. Only the most self-assured dare to tread.
“Not only that, we are friends as well as a guiding beacon for each other, whose inseparability shows up on stage,” Sharda added, sharing a moment of the matchless attachment within the group. “Kapil is sure that all the roasts made by us are done out of care and affection, guaranteeing a higher status only serves to highlight the limitations of our intelligence and free will.
In a time when humor gets stuck in the connection of polite correctness and exquisiteness, Kapil Sharma’s skill to take the fun even at himself is the air of freshness.
