We all know the about the infamous and ugly fight between India’s favourite TV-standup-comedian Kapil Sharma and comedian and actor Sunil Grover. Eventually, Kapil’s popular programme, The Kapil Sharma Show was taken off air due to poor ratings. However, Kapil is back again with a brand new show titled Family Time With Kapil Sharma on the same channel, Sony. The show is touted to be a game show and will be co-hosted by Neha Pendse along with Kapil. He has already shot the pilot episode of his new show with Ajay Devgn. He managed to assemble most of his old performer friends including Kiku Sharna, Chandan Prabhakar and Sumona Chakraborty except one person – Sunil Grover. Now adding a fresh twist to the tale, on Saturday Grover said that he had not been approached for the show.

Now adding a fresh twist to the tale, on Saturday Grover said that he had not been approached for the show.
This immediately triggered the suppressed anger in Kapil who took to Twitter to clarify his stand on the matter and alleged that Sunil is clearly lying. He did not like the idea of Sunil taking it to social media.
But Sunil Grover too wasn’t ready to let it go. He responded to Kapil’s allegation with a long post on Twitter. He maintained that he has not been called for Kapil’s new show.Grover also indirectly jibed at Kapil’s drinking habits. Kapil replied too!
After his show went off the air, Kapil invested much of his time and energy on his film Firangi, which tanked at the box office miserably.
It seems that the war-of-words between the two ace comedians are not going to end soon. The telecast date of Family Time With Kapil Sharma hasn’t been declared yet.
