Speaking about Archana Puran Singh, who had replaced him on the show, Sidhu said he made sure to address about her before returning, 'Maine Archana ji ke liye bhi baat kari thi. Ki main Durga ka bhakt hoon, yeh kaise ho sakta hai ki unke dil ko thes pahuncha ke main wapas aaun. Vo farmaish bhi maan li and she is with me on the show. Thank you for all the love and affection. I feel honoured to be back on this show (I had also spoken to Archana ji. I am a devotee of Durga — how could I return by hurting her feelings? I fulfilled that request as well, and she is with me on the show).' The first season premiered on Netflix in 2024. Following the success of two seasons, the third is now set to premiere on June 21. The show features Archana Puran Singh, Krushna Abhishek, Sunil Grover, and Kiku Sharda. This season brings a new twist, offering fans a chance to showcase their talent on stage in every episode.
