Comedian Bharti Singh recently lauded Kapil Sharma in an interview, calling him a dedicated and supportive figure in her life.
During her conversation with Raj Shamani, Bharti credited Kapil for always standing by her and aiding her career.
Furthermore, she shared an inside look at his process, noting that he still suffers from last-minute anxiety before going on stage.
Bharti mentioned that she learned a valuable lesson from Kapil. She said that,
“'Comedy is not in the jokes,’ he has told me, advising, ‘Look around you, observe. What is your driver like? Do his mannerisms, do this.’ It’s not to hurt someone, or something… There is no one above Kapil Sharma, right? I respect him a lot. Even now, whenever I feel down, I call him. I also visit his house quite often. He is like an energy boost for me. I have often seen people in the same field pulling each other down. But he’s never like that. He’ll say, ‘Tu sher hai (You are a lion). What you can do, no one else can!’ If the king himself tells me all this, even if I have only three bullets, I can fire 30.”
She further continued that, “Bohot support kiya… humesha baat-tey hain. Backstage mera jaise haal hai, paseeno-paseena, Jab ki uss bandey ne show kitna hi kar liya ho. Jab jata he ekdum chilla ke jata hain. Bohot down to earth hain… uss bande ko maine personally jana hai (Backstage, it’s the same situation as mine: sweating profusely. Even though that man has done so many shows, he still sweats profusely backstage. But once the time comes, he enters the stage with full energy. He is so down to earth and humble, I have seen him up close so I know).”
