In the trailer, Raghav Chadha can be seen entering the stage without footwear, and the reason behind his being barefoot will make you all ROFL.
In the promo, Raghav Chadha arrives on the show barefoot, and Kapil quickly takes a dig at him, questioning the politician, 'Mannat maangi thi aapne ki meri Pari se shaadi hogi toh mai Kapil ke show pe nange paon jaaunga?" (Did you take a vow that if you got married to Pari, then you would walk barefoot on Kapil's show?). Raghav then reveals the real hilarious reason behind his action, his shoes had been stolen. We then see Krushna Abhishek and Kiku Sharda entering dressed as females and calling Raghav 'Jiju'.

What's Next for Parineeti Chopra
On the work front, Parineeti Chopra last won hearts with her role in Amar Singh Chamkila alongside Diljit Dosanjh. The film was directed by Imtiaz Ali. She is now gearing up for a Netflix web series, produced by Siddharth P. Malhotra and Sapna Malhotra. The title and details around the plot still remain under wraps.
Meanwhile, Kapil Sharma has been in the headlines ever since the shocking incident of gunfire outside his Canada café. There were reports that Kapil might cancel the shoot of his popular chat show, The Great Indian Kapil Show, following the incident, but it looks like he has chosen another path and is continuing with all his work commitments. Now, the café has reopened and, while sharing the news, the café's official page said: 'We've missed you and are truly grateful for your continued love and support. With heartfelt thanks, we're opening our doors again – ready to welcome you back with warmth, comfort, and care. See you soon."

Wednesday Season 2, Part 1 is a gorgeous but unfocused homecoming to Nevermore
After nearly three years, Netflix's Wednesday returns with the first half of its second season—four episodes that bring Jenna Ortega's gothic heroine back to Nevermore Academy. Created by Alfred Gough and Miles Millar and directed in parts by Tim Burton, the series once again blends teenage angst with supernatural mystery, this time expanding its world with more Addams family members, more mythology, and more murder. A still from Wednesday Season 2, Part 1 But while the style and tone remain alluring, Season 2, Part 1 struggles to find narrative clarity. With the second half of the season—another four episodes—set to drop next month, this batch feels like buildup without payoff. Following a blood-soaked summer of mastering her psychic abilities and playing cat-and-mouse with a serial killer, Wednesday returns to Nevermore Academy for the fall semester. Her younger brother, Pugsley (Isaac Ordonez), joins the school and struggles with his static electricity powers. The institution now runs under Principal Barry Dort (Steve Buscemi), who recruits Morticia Addams (Catherine Zeta-Jones) to help with gala fundraising efforts, much to Wednesday's dismay. Still haunted by dark visions—particularly one involving her best friend Enid (Emma Myers)—Wednesday plunges into a new mystery when townspeople begin turning up dead, their eyes plucked out by crows. As she investigates these eerie deaths, she uncovers hidden Addams family secrets, battles rising fame, and navigates shifting friendships. The return of Grandmama Frump (Joanna Lumley) and several quirky new faces complicate matters further, making Nevermore feel more chaotic than ever. The good Despite narrative clutter, the show's eerie aesthetic remains a major asset. Tim Burton's influence is evident in the rich, gothic production design—moody corridors, shadowed classrooms, and stylized costumes all create an immersive environment. Jenna Ortega still commands the screen with her deadpan delivery and steely presence, even when given less to do. Her chemistry with Emma Myers adds emotional grounding, especially as their friendship strains under the pressure of secrets and suspicion. The deeper dive into the Addams family dynamic adds intrigue. Morticia's increasing involvement in Wednesday's world causes tension, while family secrets unearthed midseason add new depth. Supporting newcomers—especially Evie Templeton as a wide-eyed, obsessive fan—infuse the season with oddball energy. The bad However, the decision to split the season into two parts feels unnecessary and hinders narrative momentum. These four episodes feel more like setup than story, dragging toward an underwhelming midseason finale. With so many characters and subplots crammed in, Wednesday herself often gets lost in the shuffle. The Addams family, once defined by their offbeat contrast to the normal world, now seem diluted in a universe full of supernatural oddities. Their presence no longer feels special, and what once made them darkly hilarious now seems mundane. Morticia and Gomez (Luis Guzmán) are given more screen time, but their exaggerated performances begin to feel repetitive. Perhaps most disappointingly, the clever, sardonic tone that defined Season 1 has dulled. There's no moment here with the cultural impact of Wednesday's dance scene, nor does the writing offer many standout one-liners. The mystery at the heart of the season lacks urgency, and Wednesday's visions—complete with ominous black tears—start to feel like a tired trope rather than a compelling device. The verdict Season 2, Part 1 of Wednesday offers more gloom, more lore, and more Addams—but not always to its benefit. Visually striking and occasionally poignant, it still manages to entertain. Yet with its unfocused storytelling and diminishing returns on once-sharp characters, the magic that made the first season so iconic feels diluted. Let's hope Part 2 finds its bite.

However, he then curiously turned towards Raghav and asked, 'But, after your marriage to Parineeti… who takes care of the finances?' Raghav smartly replied, 'To manage money, one needs to have money. Among us, Parineeti is the one with money, so she is the one who manages finances.' He added, 'Her job pays her well, mine doesn't. She is both the Finance and Home Minister of our house.' In the same episode, the couple also shared details about their wedding day when the ritual of hiding the shoes was a huge flop. Parineeti shared, 'My friend who stole his shoes, ended up giving it to someone from the groom's side, so when the time came, they already had it.'

Previously, talking at Raj Shamani's podcast, Parineeti shared her love story with her husband. 'We met at an event in London, and usually, I'd just say hi and move on, but this time, I said, 'Let's meet for breakfast'. Including our teams, it was around 8-10 of us, and we met at breakfast the next day. I had no idea who he was and what he did. I literally looked him up after the breakfast. I learned about all the work he's done, and we realised, not even in weeks, in days, that we would get married.' She added, 'I swear, I met Raghav, and within five minutes, I knew I was going to marry this man. I didn't even know if he was married, had children, how old he was… He just sat at breakfast in front of me, and I'm looking at this man and saying, 'I think I'm going to marry this man'. It was some God's voice inside me.'
