Navjot Singh Sidhu for the commentator’s role in Mujhse Shaadi Karogi (2004), followed by Sumona Chakravarti, and now it is Krushna Abhishek and (Sudesh) Lehri.”

“Not to forget, I am now also the producer of the star who is the producer of this show aka Salman Khan,” he added.

Das took to Twitter to announce the project. “Writer-Director-Producer Nandita Das teams up with Kapil Sharma in a never seen before avatar of a food delivery rider. Kapil will be joined by Shahana Goswami as the female lead. Filming soon,” she tweeted.

Kapil said in a statement, “I am very excited about this project, not because I am doing a film, but because I am doing Nandita Das’ film, whom I have seen both as an actor and a director. She has a very distinct and deep way of looking at things and a keen eye for detailing. So my job as an actor is to just do what she tells me. Her work is very different from mine, and I am happy that the audience will get to see a new side of me. An artist is always thirsty to do something different! The people behind the project, Nandita Das and Sameer Nair are both extremely passionate and good at what they make, so I am really excited to be doing this film.”
