Talking about the new entry on the show, Kapil Sharma said in a statement, 'We had promised that every year our family will grow, and I'm so excited to have Sidhu paaji part of the family along with Archana ji to enjoy all the chutkules, the shayaris and masti. The mahaul is set, so stay tuned because this season jokes aur laughter dono ho gayein hain triple!!!'
Navjot Singh Sidhu said in a statement, 'Coming to The Great Indian Kapil Show feels like I'm coming home again. It is a home run for me. We heard the voice of the people, so many fans and well-wishers who loved our interactions and wanted to see more. I'm delighted that Netflix has managed to bring this bouquet of beautiful people together, and we will bloom this season for audiences worldwide. A smile doesn't cost you a cent, but it is worth millions of dollars, and The Great Indian Kapil show is an instrument of god's goodwill to bring happiness to mankind – honoured to be part of it again.'
Sidhu's exit from the show took place in 2019 after the cricketer-politician took serious heat over his comments following the Pulwama terror attack. Sony — where Kapil's show was telecast at that time — sacked him and hired Archana Puran Singh to host the show. Ever since then, the show and its cast has jumped platforms and names but Archana has stayed on as the judge. She often takes hits from the show's cast for earning money for 'just laughing' but responds with grace. The same treatment, however, was never meted out to Sidhu.
The two judges on the show will make this season an interesting mix. The new season of the Great Indian Kapil Show starts streaming from 21st June, 2025.

Because the circle around him is completely wrong."advertisement"Sab wah-wah karne waale log hain. Mera aur Govinda ka jhagda bhi hojaata hai kyunki main naa jhooth nahi bol sakti aur chaplusi nahi kar sakti. Aaj iske pass ek writer hai, secretary hai, ek friend jaisa vakeel hai, sab faltu (They are all people who just keep praising him blindly. Even I end up fighting with Govinda because I can't lie or flatter people. Right now, he has a writer, a secretary, and someone acting like a close friend—all of them are useless)," she added. Sunita also revealed the unrealistic feedback given by her husband's added, "Kyunki sirf wah-wah karna hai. Wah chi chi bhaiya kya kamaal kardia. Abey tu sach toh bol.
