EXCLUSIVE: Sunil Grover: I was not invited to be part of Kapil Sharma's upcoming show

The weekend saw another war of words between Kapil Sharma and Sunil Grover on Twitter. It all started when Sunil responded to a fan’s tweet, saying he was not doing Kapil’s upcoming comedy show because he hadn't been approached for it. This did not go down well with Kapil, who accused Sunil of lying. Kapil claimed that he had approached Sunil a number of times in the past, but in vain. This led to a series of tweets between the two, which made it evident that things are still not well between them. Sunil and Kapil first had a fallout in March 2017, when they fought on a flight. The tiff was so ugly, Sunil walked out of Kapil’s show, which he was a part of back then. Though Kapil tried to make amends, the rift remained.
We asked Sunil if this was a publicity stunt and he said, "People can think whatever they want to, but that’s not true. As soon as the promos of Kapil’s show went on air, I was flooded with messages asking if I was going to work with him again. I did not respond initially, but later, I felt that my fans and viewers deserve an answer. That’s when I responded saying that I never got a call to be on his show."
