The Great Indian Kapil Show S5 Ep 1 Review Ft. Ajay Devgn & Drishyam 3 Cast: If This Is The Hasi Ka Tyo-ha-ha-ha-haar Kapil Sharma Promised, Probably I Don’t Know How To Laugh!

By Trisha Gaur

After a gap that felt long enough for us to forget that The Great Indian Kapil Show was not entertaining enough last season, the show returned with season 5. This time, the show has itself added a laugh in its title jingle – that says, Hasi ka Tyo-ha-ha-ha-haar. The premiere episode rolls out the Drishyam 3 team as its opening guests, days ahead of the film’s release. Great promotional instinct. But the entertainment went missing right away!

Ajay Devgn, Shriya Saran, Ishita Dutta, Mrunal Jadhav, and Jaideep Ahlawat arrived on the premiere episode of season 5, with director Abhishek Pathak, and the episode leans into a festive mode. It’s a warm enough premise for a season opener, but before the sketches take over, the initial chat could not generate laughter or interest from the viewers.

The One Time Sunil Grover Did Not Impress!

Sunil Grover and his new avatar were the best-kept secret of the show, and I thought he would finally bring the much-awaited laughter with the last segment! He arrived with an imitation of Ajay Devgn, which, on paper, should be a highlight moment. In general, Grover doing an impression of any star is usually the safest bet in Kapil’s show. But this time, it misfired. The act did not land well!
