The Great Indian Kapil Show's second season is going to end soon.

The Great Indian Kapil Show is getting mixed reviews and response from the audience. And now there are certain reports wondering whether it will return with a new season or not?

According to report in Philox website, there is a drop in the viewership of The Great Indian Kapil Show. This decline has resulted in fewer people tuning in to watch the show, which has long been a favourite in Indian households.

According to sources, many of the users of streaming platform are watching half of an episode of the show. Such low engagement levels make it difficult for the streaming giant to justify the high costs associated with producing and marketing the show.

One of the major reasons for the show's poor performance on the OTT giant is its availability on YouTube and social ṁedia.

Clips and highlights of the show are extensively shared on the platform, garnering millions of views. Many viewers find these short clips sufficient for their entertainment.

The show's format, which heavily focuses on themes like marriages, relationships, and day-to-day family matters, has become monotonous. What once resonated with viewers now seems repetitive.

In the current era of streaming, viewers have access to a vast variety of comedy content, from stand-up specials to sitcoms.

According to sources, the low viewership and engagement of The Kapil Sharma Show did not generate the expected returns, making it unviable  for it to continue.
