Kapil Sharma's new TV show put on hold due to poor health and low rating

Mumbai: Kapil Sharma made a TV comeback with yet another comedy show called 'Family Time with Kapil Sharma', which was premiered on 25 March on Sony Entertainment Television. However, it now looks like the network is unhappy with Kapil's recurring cancelled shoots due to poor health and poor health. Now reportedly, the show has been suspended by the channel for almost a month.

According to a report in The Indian Express, Family Time With Kapil Sharma will not air new episodes for the whole of April as the show’s host has been keeping unwell and cancelling shoots every week.

The report quotes an anonymous ‘highly placed source close to the current show,’ who agrees that the show failed to do well. “See the first episode of Kapil’s latest show was nothing like its predecessor...It only did well on TRP charts as Kapil has a very ardent fan following and was going to be back on television after a hiatus of seven months. So naturally, his fans did watch their favourite comedian’s new show but it lacked the punch that they expected,” the source said.

Recently, Kapil was in the news for getting into verbal dispute with a journalist. On Friday evening, several abusive posts from his Twitter account shocked the social media. The next day, Kapil accepted that he had indeed written all those tweets.
