Legal Notice To Kapil Show Over Tagore Controversy, Salman Khan Denies "Association" 

Comedian Kapil Sharma's NetflixShow has landed in legal trouble for allegedly mocking Rabindranath Tagore's legacy on the show. Reports were in circulation that Salman Khan's production house SKTV had been served a legal notice as well for its alleged association with the show. Dismissing speculation, Salman Khan's team has issued a statement denying any kind of involvement with Kapil Sharma's show.

The notice was issued by the Bongo Bhashi Mahasabha Foundation. It was sent on behalf of Dr Mondal by legal advisor Nripendra Krishna Roy. The notice claims that The Great Indian Kapil Show disrespected Rabindranath Tagore's legacy and risks offending cultural and religious sentiments.

Kajol and Kriti Sanon appeared on an episode of the show to promote their film- Do Patti. In that episode, Krushna Abhishek performed a parody by rephrasing the famous song Ekla Chalo Re as "Paachla Chalo Re (Go with five people)." Krushna said, "Akela nahi chalne ka. Ek din main akela chal raha tha aur paanch kutte mere piche padd gaye. Main jaanta hoon maine kaise apne aapko bachaya hai (Don't ever go alone. One day I was chased by five dogs when walking alone on the road. Only I knew how I saved my life)." This spoof didn't sit well with a large section of the Bengali community.

Kapil's show stars Sunil Grover, Krushna Abhishek, Kiku Sharda, Rajiv Thakur and Archana Puran Singh. Season 2 is celebrating India and its rich culture with the superstars of the country. The format of The Great Indian Kapil Show is largely identical to that of Kapil Sharma's former shows The Kapil Sharma Show and Comedy Nights with Kapil. The Great Indian Kapil Show is streaming on Netflix.
