Kapil Sharma Postponed US Tour Because of Rajiv Thakur’s schedule

Rajiv Thakur revealed in a recent interview, that Kapil Sharma postponed his US tour to accommodate his shooting schedule for the web series. Thakur thanked Kapil and shared how the comedian motivated him to do the Netflix show. Thakur faced scheduling conflicts when he decided to shoot for Anubhav Sinha’s show- IC 814: The Kandahar Hijack series.

“It’s all thanks to Kapil that I managed to do the show. The series team asked for my dates in June last year, which were already with him for our America tour. This is why I decided to say no but when Kapil got to know about it, he encouraged me to take up IC 814,” Rajiv told India Today.

“He told me, ‘Tu series kar, hum show push kar denge (you do the series, we will push the show)’. And that’s why our show was postponed to July. I had already committed to him, so I would have rejected the show, but he pushed me, and I am thankful for that. This is what true friends do, isn’t it?” the actor added.

Rajiv further shared that the entire cast of Kapil Sharma’s show motivates each other. He revealed how Archana Puran Singh reacted when she finally watched the show. “Archana ji (Archana Puran Singh) was so happy, saying that my credit was long due. I remember Kapil also watched the show late at night after a shoot and immediately messaged Anubhav sir. He called me the first thing the next morning and he sounded so happy and proud. I think this makes me so much happier,” he said.

Meanwhile, Rajiv Thakur will soon be a part of Kapil Sharma’s The Great Indian Kapil Show 2.
